What Rick Cockrum Said . . . about Dreams and Roadmaps

November 8, 2008 by Liz

A community isn’t built or befriended,
it’s connected by offering and accepting.
Community is affinity, identity, and kinship
that make room for ideas, thoughts, and solutions.
Wherever a community gathers, we aspire and inspire each other intentionally . . . And our words shine with authenticity.

Dreams and Roadmaps

Some dreamers put their dreams on the horizon and talk about what they wish. Dreams require a life to be more than a wish. If we only look at our dreams, we’ll see them fade into nothing. What does it take to live a dream into reality?

Here’s what Rick Cockrum said . . .

The most important thing I learned in school was how to learn, Leon. What your degree is in doesn’t matter. Dreams are NEVER smashed, though the implementation may have no resemblance to the original.

The best thing about having a roadmap and a strategy isn’t to stick to it slavishly, but to have taken the time to consciously decide where you’re going, how you’re going to get there, then how you’re going to act on the inevitable changes that have to be made, rather than just reacting to circumstances occurs.
