What is Your Giggle Dream?

By Sue Frederick, author of Dancing at Your Desk

           
Why do you need a dream? Why should it make you giggle? Look around at our world. Couldn’t we dream up something better than this?

Let’s start with you. Do you have a career you love that makes the world a better place and provides abundantly for you? Do you have great health and awesome love?

If you’ve already got that, you DO understand the power of your dreams. If not, let’s review how this works:

The quantum physicists tell us that our thoughts, beliefs and feelings (which make up our energy) pulse a vibratory message into the universe that actually rearranges the subatomic particles making up our “reality.”

This means that YOUR thoughts, beliefs and feelings (the stronger the better) are pulsing a signal that attracts circumstances, relationships and events into your life that are in vibrational harmony with YOU.

When you dream or imagine, you’re sending out a strong vibration asking for what you want. A small dream has a fairly weak vibrational code pulsing from it. It doesn’t have much power to rearrange sub-atomic particles in your favor. But a great dream that makes you giggle has a powerful pulse capable of moving mountains.

Here are essential principles for dreaming up a new and improved “reality:”

1. Remember Einstein’s big idea: E=MC2
(Energy = mass times the speed of light squared)
Try this idea:
G=E2=M (Giggle = Energy Squared = Manifestation)

If you’re not giggling when you imagine your dream coming true, your dream is just not big enough to be successful. If you’re not excited about your dream, nobody else will be either.

Passion, fun and excitement are pure energy; the greater the excitement about a dream, the stronger the energy rallies behind it. To make a dream come true takes BIG energy. That energy push is up to you.

When you dream about something you want and send your giggle out into the universe, that giggle of excitement gives your dream energy to attract the necessary people and circumstances.

Nothing raises your energy like dreaming. When you’re having a difficult day, the quickest way to make it better is to ask, “What do I want to happen next?” Start with little things like, “to get a cup of coffee.” Build your way up to bigger dreams: to take a day off, go skiing or have lunch with a friend.

Then jump to the grand dreams: your new house, a happier career, writing your book, making your film - until finally you’re giggling. Now you’ve raised your energy to the high end of your energy continuum. Now you’re powerful enough to attract the energy to make it happen.

2. You’re here to live a BIG life – not a small, pitiful life. (IT’S WHY WE’RE HERE PEOPLE!)

For the most part, we’re pitiful dreamers. When people ask what we want to happen, the answer is usually less than inspiring: “Take a couple weeks off, visit a friend, retire with a good pension plan, etc.”

The purpose of life is much grander than that. You’re here to live up to your greatness – not your pitifulness. Stop playing life small. It’s not doing you (or the world) any good. The world needs greatness: great ideas, passion, brilliance, and courage.

Who makes the world a better place? Joe Schmoe, who complains about his job and can hardly pay the bills, or Oprah, who has created enough abundance to open a school for girls in Africa?

 

3. You may have failed before…

You’re going to drag some old baggage into your new creation. You’ll hear the old fear voices say: “Well, it didn’t work out last time. Who do you think you are? Nothing ever works out the way you want it to.”

Your past disappointments will try to get in the way of your current dreaming. Only a new dream that makes you giggle will be strong enough to override those old voices and inspire you to say, “Who cares? I’m doing it anyway.”

When you were a child, you dreamt of magical circumstances and a great life. As you grew up, you were told to stop dreaming, get your head out of the clouds and face reality. You gave up your dreams in order to fit in.

But when you stopped dreaming, you gave up your power to create. You lost your way and forgot why you’re here. Now it’s time to remember. The world needs your dreams!

 

4. At the end of your life when you look back, you’ll wish you had gone after your big dreams.

You’ll say, “Why didn’t I go to medical school? Why didn’t I take that trip to Europe? Why didn’t I pursue my music?”

We get lost in the details of our lives. We become like ants focused on pushing a grain of dirt without awareness of the big picture. This behavior is a reflection of our “pitiful” selves.

At the end of your life, those small details will not matter at all. However, the big picture will be glaringly obvious to you. You’ll see the grand road-map of your life. You’ll ask “Why didn’t I take that turn? Why didn’t I explore the unknown?”

The best legacy you can leave your loved ones is showing them that you followed your dreams and lived a happy, fulfilled life. Your life will inspire others to go after their dreams. When one person lives up to their greatness, it inspires dozens, even hundreds, around them to do the same.

 

5. Life is supposed to be fun because we’re all part of source energy – which means divinity.

Don’t insult the divine fabric you’re made of by wallowing in your negativity. Sure there are circumstances you’ve signed up for that aren’t pretty. But you signed up for those challenges exactly because you knew you could overcome them. You knew you were capable of rising above the obstacles and moving forward with greatness. You intended to be a hero!

Don’t disappoint yourself. Tackle your challenges head-on as if you’re the star in your own movie. You are!

Enjoy the heck out of life. Throw your head back and laugh-out-loud. Embrace your humanity with giggles, courage and determination.

Then you absolutely WILL succeed at whatever you put your mind to. And YOUR dreams will make other people start giggling.
