5 ways to kill your dreams

Most people never see their dreams realized, not because of lack of ambition, but because they fall for easy myths. Achieving a dream is never the result of an overnight success; even stories that look instant are built on years of hard work, like writing a book downloaded by millions after relentless effort. Growth requires constant striving, not coasting once things feel secure. True fulfillment comes from embracing the journey, turning each setback into a lesson instead of blaming others or waiting for perfect answers.
