Sometimes the things we want seem way too big to achieve. They seem so big, in fact, that we don’t believe we can get them.
And the problem is that if we don’t believe we can get something, we can’t get it. Belief is essential to attaining dreams.
Joyful Springers never give up. They have unwavering belief in being able to have what they want, and they keep their enthusiastic focus on their desires.
You can be, do, or have anything you want. The universe, responding to the powerful law of attraction, has the ability to bring anything to you. But first, you MUST believe you can get it. Once you have that believe, never give up on it. Keep your focus on your desire, and be ready to take just a little inspired action. The power of your focus plus your action will create miracles.

Sometimes it can feel like what we want is very far away. Though we used to have a clear vision of our dream, now we can barely see it. When this happens, we have to find a way to get our goal back in focus.
Joyful Springers peek through the slats. By looking for things to appreciate and things that feel good, they find the path of least resistance to get their focus back on what they want.
When a dream is a long time coming, your disappointment puts you out of vibrational sync with what you want. Appreciating and doing things that make you feel good help you get in vibrational alignment with your desires again. Once you’re in alignment, you can put your happy focus back on what you want and watch it appear in your life.

A line from a Mark Akenside poem reads, “Seeks painted trifles and fantastic toys, and eagerly pursues imaginary joys.”
Joyful Springers face it eagerly. “It” is visions of wonder and magic and joy. They look toward their future with exuberant anticipation.
Instead of keeping your focus on an unpleasant present, put your expectant attention on a delightful future. The energy of your keen desire can turn the imaginary into reality.

“If you can’t pay for a thing, don’t buy it. If you can’t get paid for it, don’t sell it. Do this, and you will have calm and drowsy nights, with all of the good business you have now and none of the bad. If you have time, don’t wait for time.”
Procrastination can be our worst enemy. It holds our dreams at bay.
It can be hard to break through the wall of resistance procrastination creates. But it can be done, and it only takes a little bit of effort to do it.
Joyful Springers hop to it. They know that if they can take one happy step toward what they want, energy will rush in and help them go the rest of the way.
If you’ve been procrastinating on a project or goal, you can break through your resistance today. Think of one little thing you can do toward your goal, and to quote comedian, Larry the Cable Guy, “Get ‘er done.”

Thomas Edison said, “The three great essentials to achieve anything worthwhile are, first, hard work; second, stick-to-itiveness; third, common sense.”
Joyful Springers develop stick-to-itiveness at an early age. They hang onto their dreams and goals.
If there’s something you want, clamp onto it and don’t let go. If you remain true to your vision, you will achieve success.

The last thought you take to sleep with you has a vibrational energy that you awaken with in the morning. If you’re chewing on negative things when you go to sleep, your subconscious will recreate them all night long, and you’ll start your day with them.
Joyful Springers know to go to sleep intending to dream of their favorite things.
Before your go to sleep at night, imagine something that makes you happy. Take that energy to sleep with you, and you’ll have it available when you wake up in the morning.
