It is a common practice for people to look up to others for validation of things of life – ideas, actions and dreams.
Before many act, they need the assurance of others that their decisions are right and will produce the best results.
They only act with favorable nods and seals of approval.
Just so is their dreams. To work on their aspirations, goals and dreams, they need others to approve of and endorse them.
And when others do not show believe (validation), they self doubt their dreams and begin the search for new ones.
But it is an individual dream(s) demanding no approval from anyone – except the supports to realizing it/them.
So when others do not approve of (validate) your dream, remember it’s never a requirement before you get to work.
Believe in your dreams and expect no validation from others – not all are happy you have one and many are full of envy.
Believe in yourself and get to work on your dreams.
