Dream Stealers.........
Beware!! They Are Everywhere

by Patricia Drain
Years ago, I met someone who was my first KNOWN dream stealer.
I had just written my first book and was very protective of it.
I named it, Hire Me Secrets Of Job Interviewing. I didn’t know
if it was well written or would be successful, but that really
didn’t matter to me at the time. The sole purpose was to help
people get job offers.
I owned a Recruiting/Staffing firm in Phoenix Arizona. Every
day it was my job to prepare our candidates to interview with
our client companies for new career opportunities. The book
had all the ingredients necessary to show how to get in the
game of interviewing, answer questions that most of our clients
asked, get the job offer, and make a decision.
I didn’t market the book or even tell anyone about it. Why??
Because I was so afraid that someone, especially someone in the
same business I was in, would see it and make fun of me for
writing it.
Be careful what you focus on.
A couple of months after writing the book the dream stealer
entered my office. She picked up my book and said very
sarcastically, You have got to be kidding ...YOU wrote a book?
Embarrassed I said, Yes, all I am trying to do is help our
clients get a job and to also be aware that interviewing is a
game, so they shouldn’t take it personally.
In response, she said, I am also writing a book about
interviewing. At the present time it is all in my head. It’s
ok though because I have a mind like a computer. All the
chapters are compartmentalized, I even have a clear picture of
my cover. I must say however MY book is MUCH thicker than
yours and much meatier In fact, I noticed that your chapter
on resumes is just a few pages, mine has over 100 pages so far.
I don’t know what came over me but I saw her for what she was
in that instant. A DREAM STEALER, AN INTIMIDATOR, A BULLY.
You know the difference between your goal and mine??? I said.
No what? She replied.
Your goal is still in your head.....I wrote mine down in the
form of a book.
Sweet revenge.............Is her book done to date........NO!
Did my book get picked up by a major publisher because it was
simple, easy to read, and could help thousands of people get a
job? YES!
I tell you this story because I was reminded just weeks ago
about all the Dream Stealers that have come into my life over
the years. It was on this trip down memory lane that I
realized
Dream Stealers are everywhere!!! We must be aware and
prepared to run not walk away from them. I knew I had to share
with others that Dream Stealers come in all varieties.
Teachers,friends, associates, even family members. They might
even tell you very good reasons why you should listen to them
because it is for your own good
My last dream stealer was the force behind this story.
Actually my last dream stealer I actually PAID. That’s right I
paid him $1000 to TRY to steal one of my dreams.
It happened in Las Vegas.
My partner Debbie and I signed up for his seminar, paid our
money, got on a plane, checked into a hotel, took a cab to his
event and proceeded to have a dream stealer tell us what we
can’t, shouldn’t and couldn’t do.
When we decided to walk out on his training session after
identifying him as a dream stealer we asked for our money back.
(something neither of us have ever done in our lives) We were
very uncomfortable with the situation but we promised each
other that as soon as we got the money we would both buy items
that would remind us of future Dream Stealers .
Debbie bought a small but perfect diamond that would remind her
not to let ANYONE take the twinkle out of her dreams. My
reminder was the famous BOSE ear phones that would remind me
NEVER listen to ANYONE who tries to steal your dreams through
intimidation or wrong information.
If either of these stories rings a bell for you or reminds you
of any of the Dream Stealers that have been in your life so
far, or are about to appear, get a reminder that works for you.
A reminder that will help you become aware everyday
Then
GO FOR YOUR DREAMS

Voicing My Opinion: Who Are Your Dream Stealers?

This article really got me thinking about all the dream
stealers in my life. The biggest ones you would think are your
family and friends. They can be your biggest dream stealers,
but I am talking about your so called online marketing friends.
You have those who when you tell them of an idea, they are
quick to shoot you down. Not give you some pointers, or help
you to get where you want to get, but tell you that your idea
is stupid, or will never make any money, or no one will care
about that product. Yada, yada, and more yada.
I can't tell you how many times I listened to people and stayed
broke while they made money. Hmmm, and you're helping me how ???
So many people told me last year when I first started school,
how can you do that plus a business and take care of the kids
and the household. I got so frustrated,I quit. Now this year, I
let no one hold me back, got back into school, which are online
courses, and managed to get an A minus from both classes and I
am on to my next set of classes. I started classes when my
newborn was 5 days old. Now I am handling school, 3 kids,
husband and house plus the business and I wish I never let
anyone tell me otherwise.
When it comes to your business, don't let someone tell you that
you can't do it, that it won't make any money. Not every aspect
of your business has to be a money maker. Even if you had all
the money necessary to start a site, it doesn't mean that you
will be rich overnight, it just doesn't work that way. Hard work
is what gets you where you want to go.
Stop listening to those who want to see you fail. Listen to
yourself first, then listen to the positive people who only
want the best from you, not those who pretend to be.
Have Any Feedback, How do you handle your Dream Stealers??
