How Badly Do You Want Your Dream?

Chasing your dream

Chasing your dream

I’m watching X-Factor again this year. What strikes me as amazing is how many contestants have returned to compete again this year. Some were rejected first round and others got quite far before the axe fell – but still have returned to ‘face the music’ so to speak again.

Doesn’t this take courage? Determination?  And focus?

Danni Minogue said about one of the contestants that ‘Sometimes the NO makes them work so much harder’.

I have full respect watching their anxious anticipation as they nervously step onto the stage with all the pressure of being judged. They all know full well they’ve been rejected before – in front of the entire nation – and yet this doesn’t stop them from chasing their dream and continue giving it their all.

What can we learn from these bright eyed and bushy tailed youngsters?

To never, never, never give up. If you know what you want. The road may be windy. It may be long. It may be tough.

But if you love doing it, keep doing it.
