Dream and Believe

This is the third in a five part series discussing The Rider Way which is a tool we use to teach students about character and leadership. 

It is rather fitting that today we discuss just a little bit about "Dream and Believe".  Dr. King's vision and dream continues to change the world today.  Even as we talk and work toward making our dreams come true, may we keep our eye on Dr. King's dream of making this world a better place.  That should be our ultimate dream.

Competition

Nothing great is ever accomplished without big dreams.  Don’t be afraid to cast a big dream out there and work for it.  That’s where the real work starts.  Many people have dreams but when things get tough and their back is against the wall, it’s easier to abandon the dream than continue to pursue it.  You have to believe that the dream, not matter how big, is attainable and no setback can keep you from continuing to pursue it.

Personal

Don’t settle for what everyone else is doing or what others may tell you that they think you can do.  Chances are most people who try to discourage you don’t have the ambition and would rather have you stay stagnant than really stretch yourself for something better.   Don’t let others drag you down.  If it's your dream and you believe it, keep working toward it.
