tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know.” Jer 33:3

• “To humans belong the plans (Desires, Goals, Visions, Dreams) of the heart, but from the LORD comes the proper answer of the tongue.” Prov 16:1

1. Dare to DREAM-How?• “…write the vision and make it plain

on tablets, that he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; but at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; because it will surely come, it will not tarry.” Hab 2:2-3

2. Course the DREAM• “In their hearts humans plan their

course/way (strategy), but the LORD establishes their steps (tactics).” Prov 16:9

• “Commit your way to the LORD, Trust also in Him, And He shall bring it to pass.” Ps 37:5

Create your course and keep in step as your steps are directed

2. Course the DREAM• 80/20 Principle:

20% of what you do will account for 80% of your results and vice versa. Be smart. Think Smart.

3. Act on the DREAM• “There is 100% certainty that you will

not succeed if you do not start.”

• “Success is too dear to be accorded to those who only dream.”

A person that dreams of opening a kiosk and one that dreams of establishing a large

manufacturing firm are no different…they are all dreamers

3. Act on the DREAM• “You are recognized for your actions,

not your dreams.”

• “Every decision/ action/ inaction today has an impact on your success in future.”

You may not have been responsible for your past (thank God, it’s the past) but you are

responsible for your future.

3. Act on the DREAM• Warning! “Turning dreams to reality is

not for the faint-hearted, but the brave, the unstoppable.”

• Warning! “If you want to get to where you have never been, you need to do what you have never done .”

• Warning! “Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.”

3. Act on the DREAM• Remember: “Bad habits are easy to

develop and hard to live with. Good habits are hard to develop and easy to live with.”

The Butterfly Metamorphosis

Analogy

i. The Egg• Formation of ideas, visions,

goals

• Key to start with a butterfly egg. If egg belongs to house fly, so will adult.

Consult with God, friends, family to ensure that you start with the idea that matches your SHAPE.

ii. The Larva• Try out before investing lots

of resources.

• Gather as much information as possible regarding the idea while on the move.

• When you gain some success, you have not arrived. REMEMBER, you are still a larva. i.e. Systems are still weak and immature

iii. The Pupa• Time to rest, take stock and

analyze information received at larva stage.

• Time to strengthen internal systems for bigger responsibility.

• Time for inward looking.

iv. The Adult• Time to reign and fly in all

colors of beauty. Not limited to space.

• Time to multiply the vision through others and help them achieve theirs.
