Randy Pausch: Dreams

 

I thought this was very interesting! Randy Pausch spoke how the steps to achieve your dreams and to help others achieve their dreams! This is nothing but positive. Everything in the world today seems so down and negative. It’s refreshing to see something uplifting every now and then. Mr. Pausch spoke about his personal dreams and aspirations. He is a very inspirational guy and seems to have gone down the right path in life. He says that experience is what you we get when things may not go your way.

Asking for help should never be a shameful act. Always know that not everything is going to go your way. Stay upbeat, be positive, and keep your head up! He believes that parents, mentors, and even educators have the ability to help others achieve what they want to achieve in life. Hearing that makes me nervous and also excited. I will be a teacher/mentor soon. I will be in that situation in just a couple years. Hopefully it will be a while before becoming a parent, yet I will still have people around me that need help, children and adults.

Randy explains that it’s not really about how to achieve your dreams. Instead, it’s about how to lead your life. It reminds me of the saying “Life is not about how many breaths you take but about the moments in life that take your breath away.” If you believe this is true and you continue on the right path, your dreams will come true!
