Your Dream Life - The Real Cost


Hey there, it’s Oba.

In today’s issue, we discuss the price of building your dream life.

But before we get into today’s topic,

Here’s a quick unrelated find I came across this week:

👀 Random finds: Ancient Greek Proposals 🍎

In ancient Greece, men proposed to women by throwing them an apple.

By catching it, she accepted his proposal. If this is true, I have so may questions!!!

Now, back to our discussion.

💡 Thought: Your dream life will cost you! And no, it’s not cheap.

I’m sure you’ve heard a variation of the saying “It’s free to dream.”

But you know what isn’t free? Getting that dream to become a reality.

And your dream life is no exception.

The question now becomes, "What’s the cost?"

Simple answer: Your old life!

The dream life you want will cost you:

  • Old habits that no longer serve you
  • Old beliefs that hold you back
  • Old thoughts that limit you

All of which you can’t remove with the snap of a finger, even if you were Thanos.

Picture this: You dream of being a New York Times bestselling author but are afraid of sharing your ideas.

This dream can’t become a reality unless your fear gives way to a new belief.

Which brings us to the other side of this conversation.

Your dream life requires replacing the old with:

  • New habits that empower you
  • New beliefs that propel you forward
  • New thoughts that expand your possibilities

You have two options here:

Option 1: Watch your dream stay a dream, or

Option 2: Out with the old and in with the new!

The choice is yours (but I hope you pick the second option).

You deserve to live a fulfilling life!

Dreaming is free, but living the life of your dreams will cost replacing the old (habits, beliefs, thoughts) with the new.
