[00:00.29]10.Grow Great by Dreams


[00:05.63]The question was once asked of a highly 1 successful businessman: “How have you done so much in your lifetime 2?”


[00:14.67]He replied, “I have dreamed. I have turned my mind loose to imagine what I wanted to do. 


[00:22.07]Then I have gone to bed and thought about my dreams. 


[00:26.54]In the night I dreamt about my dreams. 


[00:29.59]And when I awoke in the morning, I saw the way to make my dreams real. 


[00:34.81]While other people were saying, ‘You can’t do that, it isn’t possible,’ I was well on my way to achieving what I wanted.” 


[00:43.41]As Woodrow Wilson, 28th President of the U.S., said: “We grow great by dreams. All big men are dreamers.”


[00:52.89]They see things in the soft haze 3 of a spring day, or in the red fire on a long winter’s evening. 


[01:00.29]Some of us let these great dreams die, but others nourish 4 and protect them; 


[01:06.08]nourish them through bad days until they bring them to the sunshine and light which comes always to those who sincerely hope that their dreams will come true.


[01:16.03]So please, don’t let anyone steal your dreams, or try to tell you they are too impossible.


[01:22.82]Sing your song, dream your dreams, hope your hope and walk on your own way.
