Following and eventually living your dreams is inspiring. What else are we here for if not to live our dreams?

This is the question I have asked myself for years. It's what has fueled me through dark times and huge successes.

And it's still what fuels me today -- serving everyone I possibly can in becoming the best versions of themselves.

Here's the truth: the world needs us to live up to the greatness inside of us. And it doesn't matter if you don't have any evidence yet of what those are. You still get to dream big and go for it.

Sharing my belief in the power of vision in this 5 Minute Friday, Episode 546.
