If you have a dream, chase it, persist and work harder, and you will definitely realize it.

-------- "Chasing Dreams and Growing Up: Use Dreams to Achieve Yourself and the World"

I believe that everyone has had dreams, more or less, far or near. Recently; I also believe that most people’s dreams are “stillborn”. Why is this? Because dreams are always accompanied by difficulties, the bigger the dream, the greater the difficulties, so many people will be intimidated by difficulties, give in without fighting, and finally give up silently.

Many times, the real failure is not "doing it and then doing it wrong", but "thinking about it but not doing it".

A heart that never gives up is more precious than diamonds. When we focus on our goals and go all out, no matter how dark the night is, there will eventually be dawn, and realizing our dreams is no longer so far away.

During the first manned test of the American Apollo moon landing program, a fire suddenly broke out in the command module of Apollo 1, and all three astronauts participating in the test died in the module.

However, the moon landing plan did not end because of this. Instead, it went through 18 months of re-evaluation, identifying problems, adjusting plans, improving plans, improving technology and finding safe materials, as well as through unmanned aerial vehicles in the cabin. Tested, accumulated valuable experience, and finally realized the plan for the first manned moon landing, making outstanding contributions to the development of human science.

Look, human beings can dream of reaching the moon. What dreams do we have that cannot be realized on earth?

As long as we hold our dreams in mind, persevere, and give our best, our dreams will come true.

A father took his six-year-old son to watch the movie "Slow Snail". The father was moved by the little snail’s spirit of chasing dreams without fear of difficulties or cynicism, so he wanted to use this to guide his son’s dream.

As a result, his son asked him: "Dad, what is your dream?" The father told his son that his dream was to "travel around the world."

The son continued to ask: "Dad, why don't you go now?"

Yes, why don't you go now? The father did not find reasons and excuses for himself to deal with his son. Instead, he thought about it seriously. Then he posted this dream to the circle of friends and announced to the "world": "I am going to travel around the world."

This dad is Mr. Ye Wu Hama Ye, the author of "Growing Up by Dreaming: Use Dreams to Achieve Yourself and the World", the founder of Easy Efficiency Time Management Organization, and a well-known Himalayan anchor. The Himalayan audio program he anchors is played More than 140 million times.

Teacher Ye was born in an ordinary small mountain village in Zhangzhou, Fujian, but with his own perseverance, he walked out of the mountain village, entered the big city, and even led a group of people and his two sons to the world. , leaving his footprints on all major maps of the seven continents, realizing the dream of "traveling around the world" in the true sense.

Afterwards, Teacher Ye wrote his personal experience of "traveling around the world" into the book "Growing Up in Pursuit of Dreams" to provide readers with methods to overcome difficulties and help readers establish the confidence to overcome difficulties and realize their dreams. confidence.

Next, let us take a look at how Teacher Ye realized this lofty dream.

1. Don’t fight an unprepared battle, plan and prepare around your dreams, and make the impossible possible

After Teacher Ye made it clear about his dream, he was not in a hurry Instead of setting off blindly with their children, they posted their dreams on their WeChat Moments and announced them to the “world”.

Through the interaction in the circle of friends, Teacher Ye learned that his dream was actually the dream of many people, so he determined the feasibility of his plan and took the opportunity to establish a WeChat group. Then he announced through his circle of friends that he would start a global travel project in one year, attracting more interested enthusiasts.

Teacher Ye filtered out the doubtful voices, listened to the positive responses, further thought about his plan, and began to collect "global information" with information on various transportation and food around him. , and make a slideshow of the information you learned and share it with everyone for reference.

After a period of online sharing and interaction, Teacher Ye began to consider the feasibility of organizing a group. Since he had no operational experience, he planned to try organizing a domestic team tour to test the waters.

After some understanding and preparation, Teacher Ye organized a hiking trip on the Li River in Guilin for more than 60 people. And the day after this hiking trip, Teacher Ye struck while the iron was hot and held a discussion meeting with more than 50 people.

At the seminar, the plan of "traveling around the world in a month" proposed by Teacher Ye was overturned because it was impossible to achieve due to visa difficulties. So a group of people broke down the big goal of "traveling around the world" and finally finalized a plan of "traveling across 5 continents in 5 years." Achieving a small goal every year is completely doable. After the plan was finalized, and after everyone’s discussion, the first stop destination of the trip was finally determined - "Africa".

Teacher Ye posted the plan for his "Africa trip" to his circle of friends through a "countdown" method. With the help of the language power of this declaration, he helped himself to continuously strengthen himself by repeating it over and over again. The belief that "dreams come true".

Then there was the determination of the number of team members, the collection of intention fees from the members, the connection with the travel agency, the processing of visas, and then collecting the balance payment from the members, etc. After a lot of intensive preparations, finally in 2014 On July 2, 2018, Teacher Ye took a group of dream chasers and his 7-year-old son on a journey to the first destination of the global travel - "Africa".

At this point, Teacher Ye has successfully transformed his own dream into the dream of a group of people in a real sense. One person can go fast, and a group of talents can go further. This is the power of a team.

If you have a dream, speak it out loud, announce it to the "world", receive positive responses, seize the opportunity, transform your personal dream into a group dream, and use the power of the team to achieve your goals as an adult. The impossible becomes possible, and with sufficient preparation, no matter how big a dream you have, you can realize it together.

2. Everything can be broken down. No matter how complex the problem is, it can be broken down into small problems.

The success of the trip to Africa has further enhanced Mr. Ye’s "global travel" "Confidence. In the next seven years, Mr. Ye successfully organized one tourist group after another, and successively marked his footsteps on the maps of major scenic spots in Northern Europe, South America, the Sahara Desert, and Antarctica.

Of course, this trip is not always smooth sailing. There are also many problems and difficulties. It’s just that Teacher Ye finally solved the problems and overcome the difficulties by breaking them down into complex problems and difficulties, and made every trip successful.

For example, a project plan of "living in Europe for a month" encountered great difficulties at the beginning - difficulties in group formation and visa difficulties. Because it takes too long, many people do not have such ample time. Applying for visas from multiple countries and regions also requires a relatively long process and time. It is very likely that the visa has expired before this visa is applied for. .

Teacher Ye split these problems into pieces and solved them one by one. First, divide the time into two periods. One period is 17 days to form group A, and the other period is 13 days to form group B. You can choose according to your own time. This not only satisfies Teacher Ye's own wish to "live in Europe for a month", but also continues the team's "Global Travel" plan.

The problem of group formation was solved, but then we encountered the difficulty of recruiting group members because no one came to sign up. Teacher Ye's dream seemed to have come to an end here, but he still did not give up. When no one came to sign up, he mobilized his company's employees to participate in the travel plan, and then posted it on WeChat Moments through the company's registered employees to spread the word, and finally recruited group members.

Teacher Ye’s dream seems to be achievable again, so as long as you don’t give up, there are always more ways than difficulties.

The next step is to solve the difficulty of applying for a visa. On this issue, Teacher Ye did not "work hard" by himself. Instead, he clarified the "rules", planned the "implementation" plan, and through understanding from all aspects, found a third party to handle the trivial work of visas.

Leaving professional matters to professionals can improve work efficiency. At the same time, you do not turn your back on yourself, but prepare enough materials to be ready to make up for it in time when a third party "drops the chain." This will greatly help you. The visa time is shortened.

“Everything depends on the human effort.” Huang Tian will never disappoint those who are willing to do so. In the end, Teacher Ye’s dream of “living in Europe for a month” came true again.

If you have a dream, chase it. The realization of all dreams begins with "starting" and fails with "not starting". Even a "bad start" is better than "not starting". "First complete, then perfect", so as long as you take action, continue to work hard, constantly look for the next step, and actively move towards the big goal step by step, your dream will definitely come true.

With this belief and persistence, Teacher Ye realized his dream of traveling around the world, expanded his career, perfectly integrated career and travel, and developed his own Himalayan audio program It has been played 140 million times and has been at the top of the list for several years.

Every difficulty is actually a test, and there may be a "dividend" hidden behind every difficulty. As long as we don't compromise and don't give up, we will definitely be able to embark on a successful journey and realize our dreams.

As for the mystery of the pyramids described in the book, the shock of the ice avalanche in Antarctica, the magic of the ice hotel, the wisdom and beauty of the Sydney Opera House, the magnificence of the Iguazu Falls, the majesty of the Eiffel Tower, The excitement of rafting on the Urubamba River, as well as the author's explanation of how to overcome one difficulty after another and finally achieve his dream, are so wonderful that it is difficult for the author to describe them here. If you are interested, you can read this book and listen to what the author has to say.
