As students, you may have many dreams. They can be very big like becoming a superman, or they can be very small like passing the final exams, becoming one of the ten best students in your class. If you find a dream, what do you do with it? Do you ever try to make your dream come true?
Follow Your Heart written by Australian writer Andrew Matthews tells us that making our dreams come true is life's biggest challenge.
“You may think that you're not very good at some school subjects, or it's impossible for you to become a star. These thoughts stop you from achieving your dream,” the book says.
In fact, everyone can make his or her dream come true. The first important thing you must do is to remember what your dream is.
Don't let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want. Do this step by step, and your dream will come true one day. In fact, a big dream may consist of many small dreams.
Never give up your dream. There will be difficulties on the road. But the biggest problem comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important.
Studying instead of watching TV will bring you better exam grades. Saving five yuan instead of buying an icecream means you can buy a new book. When you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. Then you will be able to learn more skills and find new interests.
