The Balance of Dreaming

Much of our life is a balance between dreaming and building. Some of us spend too much focus and attention on building and forget about the necessary task of dreaming, ultimately setting our sights too low or falling out of alignment with our deeper purposes. Others never move beyond dreaming, always putting off the building until tomorrow, leaving many of their dreams unrealized.

THIS WEEK: In recent history which best describes you? A dreamer who needs to lean into building or a builder who needs to rediscover what it means to dream? Think through what practical steps you can take this coming week to bring about a greater balance between the two in your life.

 

All the best,

Steve Lawson - Monk Manual Founder
