Dream On
“The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.”― Nelson Mandela
Stop Dreaming! Can you imagine anyone being serious about that? Dreaming is a natural part of who we are. We explore our dreams and develop personal dreams. We even like to dream BIG! Our dreams become part of who we are. We then adopt our dreams into how we see ourselves and want our lives to be. That type of dreaming we often refer to as visualization. Your life is about manifesting your dreams. You are worthy and deserving of the very best in life. You deserve to live your dream: your dream and no one else’s, no matter how big your dream is. In this edition, we bring stories of people who lived their dreams not minding the various obstacles and at the end triumphed with a big smile on their faces. When the great Madiba, great I say, walked from his father’s hut to the missionary school then, he never believed he could be what he became, but tirelessly he followed his dream of seeing his people free from slavery and apartheid, it wasn’t rosy but he kept at it and at the end, he said, ‘there is no easy walk to freedom anywhere, and many of us will have to pass through the valley of the shadow of death again and again before we reach the mountaintop of our desires’ and sincerely he sure did. There is really no easy walk to greatness, check out our front cover personality, Bishop Tom Samson, meeting with him really inspired our crew, this is a man shaking his world positively yet so humble and straightforward. Listening to his story with rapt attention was an eye opener, everyone has a gene of greatness in them, achieving it depends on how dogged and determined you are and the beautiful thing about pursuing your dreams is ‘the journey though tortuous is what makes you who you are and the realization is most fulfilling. What of the special icon 100, first of its kind in our country. Compiling the list was not easy and everyone that made the list, if interviewed, each of our icons would have a story to tell on how sweet their life’s journey was. They were men and women who went through thicks and thins to become who we celebrate today and their lives inspire us. The journey to manifesting your dreams should be a joy, and when you achieve that goal, you should be in a position to fully and unconditionally enjoy it.
We stopped producing your beautiful GENESIS INTERNATIONAL MAGAZINE but we are back on stream never to die again whatever the odds . We are back with a bang, more inspiring pages, more stories, more pages, entertainment at its best, tradition and culture, sports and everything that makes for interesting reading. Our vision is to inspire you to live your dream, motivate you even when the going gets tough and also celebrate you when the dream are realized and we promise to deliver
We all have dreams; some are big and some small. The idea is to have people around you who support and help you to achieve them, no matter what. Together you become stronger and more influential to strive for that goal. There are people around you who will try to talk you out of your dream. They’ll accuse you of being crazy, outlandish, dreaming way beyond your means. Perhaps they’ll say your dream is senseless, peculiar or even eccentric. Fine, allow them to voice their opinion. It is their opinion and they are entitled to it. Other than that, do not give them the opportunity to sway you in any way.. Sharing a dream with positive and optimistic people is truly a powerful and inspiring motive that can be a huge force on the way to manifesting your dreams and we count on your support and patronage..
Thanks and welcome on this Dream journey.
