Whatever one's vision in life is they should go for, no matter what this vision is, does not matter what anyone else think's if this is your vision and your dream, dream it.

I have heard so many people in life, say why didn't i. Because you did not dream it, your have no vision, and no goal. I love people who set goals in life, no matter what that goal is.
Thanks. I personally believe as well, people who don't dream and set goals for themselves, even if they are a little farfetched, don't know how to life IMO. Having dreams is part of being human, and you can derive realistic goals from having dreams.

Very well said, too many people go thru life, wishing they had done this or done that, and sometimes, life passes your over, and you say, i could have but why didn't i. Don't laugh everything we have, i envisioned before owning it, and we do have what i have stated, no lie. And worth every penny. We made money in some good real estate deals, at the height of a good market, which right now kind of sucks out here. And hubby owns a vending business, which does do pretty good. The old vending machines pepsi and coke, with the small bottles are so cool i love them. Nice talking to you, and talking with my hands lol i am italian.

We rent 2 of our other houses out, and live in the single level, i hate 2 storeis now, that we have a huge single level, i love the openess of it.
Does not matter what your dream in life is, just as long as you have one.
We have had our share of struggles, as most young couples i am sure have. But worked hard and worked long, and now it has paid off. My home is my castle, because i love it, it is beautiful, i entertain, cook and bake for my friends, and family, and people i just meet.

Have a mental vision of your dream, i did in every home we own, and it paid off. Keep negative thoughts away, and don't say i don't think i can, the mind is a powerful thing. Keep positive.

Go for it, if this is what you wish, put your mind to it, and set a goal, i am all for setting goals in life, someday they do pay off.

If this is your dream, by all means, go for it.

My dream is to get some secluded wooded acreage and put a "cabin" on it - one of those trailers that look like a cabin, with a log exterior, but are really a trailer that can be transported onto the property. They have small ones with just a living area/kitchen, sleeping loft, and bathroom. I'd spend long stretches there - no tv, internet, people or outside influences except a radio - just books, nature, and quiet.

I have always dreamed a lot, but a big home has never been in them. Most dreams are about immaterial "things" anyway, you know, health, happiness, relationship, etc.

So judgmental, must be too much work to try and understand the perspective of anyone who doesn't see things/life just exactly the way you do.

That is exactly how folks construct their "agreement reality".

I was able to buy a planet cheap that came with two oceans. It was a foreclosure. I had to install my own mountains because the previous owner leveled them to get back at the bank.

If this is your Dream, GO FOR IT. And stick to your Guns, life is short, and i have seen it pass so many over, and they get a certain age, and i do here them say, why didn't I do this or at least give it a try.

Most important thing in my life, is not A home, or cars, or furniture it is people, my Family are the most important aspect of my life. And health, without good health, nothing is possible.

I love to entertain them, and make them happy.

Oh and you can be very sucessful in life, and mature, and grounded no matter what you own, that comes from within.

I find people without a dream or goal in life to be inmature, and not grounded.

So many misconecptions going on, makes me just laugh.
What a person has in life does not make them a Unreal Person, what nonesense is this crap.

Whatever dream one has, go for it, or at least try, so that someday, you don't have to say, why didn't i.
