Is it wrong to dream big?

Question

Hi,

My query might sound a bit philosophical to some. I have always been an above average person in most spheres of life and am currently looking for a job change. Happened to look at career opportunities on the website of a renowned international organization which offers really exciting career opportunities. But the literature (particularly the adjectives) on their website seems to suggest that they want nothing but the best…now the demons in my mind have begun to hold me back…I know I am a decent performer and can work hard if the situation/condition demands but never been the best in any one thing at anytime in my life.

Secondly I don’t meet the EXACT requirements of any particular profile but have some knowledge and desire to work in some areas.. should I even try ? Is it wrong for an above average person to dream big ?

Hi,
Two types of people rule on earth, the believers and the dreamers. Then whatever you do in life can and will be determined by your courage. Courage is doing something that you are scared of. The first question is are you happy, if not why not persuade something that makes you happy. The first and most important element of being an interprenuer is the ability and courage to take risk. You can ask any bigwig in the world. So immediate after having courage, comes faith. The I know I CAN DO IT PART OF IT. From there, just go and do it, if it does not workout, it is not falilure but a learning curve.

I finished my high school in 1999, went to Midrand unirversity, now Midrand graduate institute. I later dropped out, went to Vaal University of Technology, once more I dropped out. Sounds bad, actually not. I got a job as a labour, semi-skilled, assistant to an electrician, assistant to a boiler-maker, I was on errection, construction. All of this happened between 2000 and 2006 June, when I was promoted from a labour to senior management position. I am now heading Occupational health, safety and environment.There is a national magazine called risk management, I commented to a safety guru conclusions. Guess what, my comment was published. As I am explaining, it is not your background or your mistakes or anything you did.

Why do I say it is not actually bad that I had to experience so many things, It all came back as experience that is driving me. There is a lot to prove to a lot, So you can do it as well.

Check, at tertiary I was persuading IT courses, at high school I was into science and mathematics, at work I started at a very low position, I save some of the company's costs to develop me, I know how people on the floor behave and I am doing very well in my career.
Basically I meet all the requirements for the post, I am educated not certificated, I am persuading the certification now, how many are certificated but not educated. They have theory but can not apply it.
If you can see it then you can do it. If you just believe, there's nothing to stop you. I BELIEVE YOU CAN FLY.
There is nothing wrong with dreaming but everything wrong comes with doubting your vision in life. Therefore whose vision are you fullfilling and whose life are you living. PERSONAL HAPPYNESS MUST BE YOUR PRIORITY. I hope I tried to answer your question.

PLEASE DO YOUR RESEARCH AND ANSWER THIS QUESTION. What did the CEO study. My answer is, nothing, it is just somebody who can put his head on the block for the company.

Thank you,

for sure you should dream and attempt to finish your aims. existence might want to get tremendously dull without aims to attempt for. you stay this existence one time and also you get to do on a on a daily basis foundation in common words once, no repeats. So no matter if or not that is 19 or 40 dont provide up on the aims. They get positioned on carry each so often with "existence" happening yet you'll bypass after them. the excellent concern about maximum horse proper activities is that there's no age decrease :o) bypass for it and also you'll make it. such as your fathers help and with slightly of success faster or later your moms you'd be in a position to attempt this. positioned your head down and do what it takes to get there. good success and with slightly of success we listen on the following faster or later that you're headed to the quarter horse congress.!!

Absolutely not! Dream as big as you want to, you deserve to. The next thing is to make some goals and achieve them so that you make your dreams come true! See my profile since yahoo doesn't like for us to relay links, I'm working towards mine and my family's big dreams too.
