TALKERS AND DREAMERS SOUND IMPORTANT

Chris "Fantastic" Powell

Dreams that never materialize. Plans that never launch. Potential that never actualizes. We've all encountered people who talk an impressive game but never seem to cross the starting line of actual achievement.

Life is waiting for you each day and you have to prepare for each challenge along the way towards success. It's not simple, but it can be done. Welcome to my Common Sense Motivation episodes. I'm Chris Fantastic Powell.

Speaker 1:

Talkers and dreamers rarely achieve much, they just sound important. You ever met someone who talks a big game? You ever met someone who talks a big game? They've got the vision, the passion, the plan. They've got the vocabulary to make it sound amazing. They dream out loud, paint pictures with their words and convince everyone, even themselves, that success is just right around the corner. But here's the truth. Dreams without discipline are just distractions. Talk without action is just noise.

Speaker 1:

I've met plenty of people who are stuck in dreamland. Year after year, they talk about what they're going to do. They say I'm about to start this, or watch what I'm about to build, and five years later they're still saying the same thing. They're intelligent. They know all the strategies. They've read all the books, taken the same thing. They're intelligent. They know all the strategies. They've read all the books, taken the courses and watched the videos. Ask them what to do next and they'll give you a master plan that sounds like it came from a Fortune 500 CEO.

Speaker 1:

But guess what? They've never gotten off the ground. Why? Because dreams don't work. Unless you do, plans don't build momentum. Movement does. Being smart isn't enough. Having talent isn't enough. Talking about it won't move the needle. At some point you have to stop impressing people with your potential and start building something with your effort. Because real achievers, they don't talk about what they're going to do, they show you with results. They don't dream out loud, they work in silence and let success make the noise. So if you've been stuck in dreamland, it's time to wake up. Stop fantasizing, stop rehearsing and start moving, because your dream is waiting, but it's tired of hearing you talk about it. It's ready to see if you'll work for it. Make it happen. I'm Chris Fantastic Powell. Thank you for listening. For books, e-books or audio books, visit chrisfantasticpowellcom or find them on Amazon.
