“Right now you are one choice away from a new beginning – one that leads you toward becoming the fullest human being you can be.”  
~ Oprah Winfrey

I have one simple question for you… right here and right now:

Are you currently working towards or working in your dream?

Today we celebrate the National Holiday of Martin Luther King Jr. (January 15, 1929 – April 4, 1968), a dominant force in the civil rights movement during its decade of greatest achievement, from 1957 to 1968.

Martin Luther King Jr. made a choice to move forward in life to Go To and Take Hold of a Dream. His dream was a dream of equality and fairness for everyone, and it all started with a choice.

We all have the power to choose, so let’s all make use of that power. Let’s all “Make the Choice Today to Go To and Take Hold of Our Personal Dream.”

What is your personal dream?

Do you want to improve some aspect of society? Do you want to improve yourself?
Do you want to help and improve others? Do you want to further your level of education? Do you want to change the job you’re currently working in to finally go to the career position you’re most passionate about? Do you want start and run your own successful business? Do you want to write and publish your first book?

What is your personal dream?

If you’re not working towards or working inside your dream today, you’re moving through life playing either small or scared. That’s not living life to the fullest, and you know it!

It was Martin Luther King Jr. who said, “You do not have to see the entire staircase to take the first step.”

When you are willing to make the choice to boldly take the first few necessary steps towards your dream, your life moves in a direction that is empowering to you. Choices make achievement and fulfillment possible, along with confidence and responsibility.

There is no better day than today for you to summon forth the self-confidence and responsibility for you to Make the Choice to Go To and Take Hold of Your Dream.

Your choices are what make your intentions real. Your choices are what make your life either a mediocre and unfulfilling or empowering and immersed in fulfilling happiness. Intentionally directed choices combined with focused efforts can connect and put you on a path working towards and in your dream.

I conclude this I-Booster borrowing and using a few words in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. (From his famous “I Have A Dream” Speech.)

“Let us not wallow in the valley of despair, I say to you today, my friends.

And so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.

I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal.”

My I-Booster Friends, today we are created equal and all should have a dream. We also should hold ourselves accountable and responsible to “Making the Choice to Go To and Take Hold of Our Dream.”

With that said, I, Ty Howard, encourage and empower you to say, “Yes, I have a dream!”

– End –

Now — Make the Choice Today to Go to and Take Hold of Your Dream!!!
