Is Your Dream Big Enough?

"If We Don’t Have Our Dreams, We Have Nothing.” Charles Farmer( Billy Bob Thorton) from The movie "Astronaut Farmer".

What a memorable quote. I just saw the movie Astronaut Farmer yesterday and I loved it. I won’t describe the storyline (you can get a good idea from watching the trailer below), but I will tell you that It was a very memorable and inspirational movie. It's very rare that I want to see a movie a second time. However I loved this movie so much that I pre-ordered the DVD that releases on July 10. This will be a permanent part of my collection of inspirational movies like Rudy, Braveheart, Hoosiers, and more.

Now don’t get me wrong, This movie will probably not win an Academy Award. But the inspiration and positive messages of the movie more than make up for that. You probably want to watch the movie with a box of tissues next to you. The movie is rated PG and is family-oriented one that you will not be embarrassed to take your older children to see. Who knows maybe they will get inspired by the movie too.

Watch the trailer below (be sure and check the name on the side of the rocket) then take a moment and think about your Dreams. Do you still have Dreams? Are you pursuing your dreams? No matter what those around you say or believe, never give up on your dreams.

I would love to hear what your dreams are. Leave a comment below.

Lost Secrets to Riches Revealed

One of the most inspirational and life-changing books I have every read is "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill. Never has there been a book written like it. It is the foundation of almost every modern day self help books today...It contains the secret to creating Success.

The secret was brought to Napoleon Hill by Andrew Carnegie, more than a quarter a century ago. Andrew Carnegie is known for having built one of the most powerful and influential corporations in United States history, U.S. Steel, and, later in his life, giving away most of his riches to fund the establishment of many libraries, schools, and universities in Scotland, America and worldwide.

Andrew Carnegie commissioned Napoleon Hill to interview all top successful business men of the time to determine their formula for success. Napoleon Hill interviewed the likes of Henry Ford, Thomas Edison, John D. Rockefeller, Alexander Graham Bell and hundreds of others. It took over 20 years for him to complete his research.

His writings became the world's first comprehensive philosophy of personal achievement.

In the first chapter he writes " Your progress towards success begins with a fundamental question, Where are you Going? Definitiveness of purpose is the starting point of all achievement..."

The starting point of all human achievement is the development of a Definite Major Purpose. Without a definite major purpose, you are as helpless as a ship without a compass. That is why I named this Blog Definite Purpose. It is my starting point.

If you have not read Napoleon Hill's work, I highly recommend you pick up a copy.

I would love to hear what some of your Definite Purposes are?
