the biggest dreams are the craziest

I’m one who actually believes “dreams are part of the process to success, and the biggest dreams are usually the craziest one.” Dreaming alone isn’t enough, but do you believe in your dreams? Dreams are possible foresight of what the future may look like, some may seem possible and common; while others may seem impossible and crazy (that is true vision). The impossible is always termed as crazy, but when actualized becomes remarkable.

A few hundred years ago, most people thought that humans would never fly. How could people fly without wings? The whole idea of flying seemed ‘crazy’ and dangerous – with emphasis on “crazy”. In December 17, 1903, Wilbur and Orville Wright made the impossible by inventing the first plane – well, after so many trials. Before the invention of planes, would it had made any sense saying one day humans will fly in an object called plane, obviously no one would want to listen to that. Planes were invented because two brothers had a crazy idea; they made sense out of the craziness which turned out to be their greatest achievement.

“it takes a crazy idea to change the world positively,” in a sane setting it is quite impossible to converse with people outside your region – you’ll need to walk for hours, or maybe days to reach the person in question. All these have being made easy, because someone had a crazy dream of communicating with the world, thereby inventing telephone and the internet. “Craziness” just like “anger” can be channeled into doing something positive; no level of insanity is lost, it all depends on what you make of it.

It’s like a Nigerian footballer who dreams of one day winning the FIFA world cup or the ballon d’or, it is possible but crazy. The only person(s) or thing that can derail you from actualizing your crazy dreams is not those laughing at you, but yourself. If you have a dream, crazy or not, but do not work towards them, then it becomes only a mere dream and nothing else.

They say you’re weird because you dream different, that’s what makes you unique. Where the sane see impossibilities; the crazy (outstanding thinkers) see a way to go around. To be successful, you need a certain level of craziness mixed with a reasonable amount of determination to push through. So the right question isn’t “how big is your dream?” but instead “is your dream crazy enough to be big?” if you feel your dreams can’t be reached, know this “nothing is impossible” just try harder. When next you have that “crazy” dream, don’t fret; wakeup, take your bath, put on your best cloth and chase that dream.
