Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.

Along the way

Dream your big, grand, glorious dreams, and follow them with all that you have. Yet take care not to let your dreams get in the way of your living.

For what good is it to reach your dreams if you do not fully live what you have, what is right here and now? This is the moment that you are in, and there is never any reason to postpone the richness of life.

The dreams you have are great objectives toward which you can reach. And the real value of them is in the process of reaching.

Now is when you give true value to your dreams by the way you live and work toward them. And now is when your dreams give value to you, with the inspiration and direction they provide.

That’s why it is never too early and never too late to dream. It is never unrealistic and never presumptuous, whatever your dreams may be.

Let your most treasured dreams pull you forward. As you do, remember to experience the richness and value of every moment along the way.

— Ralph Marston
