A cherished dream. Is the cherished dream the meaning of the life of any person or something else? How to understand it

(408 words) Every person has a dream, because without it, life loses its value, its true meaning. It is faith in the innermost desire that becomes a kind of engine, a generator of energy and unthinkable ideas in the mind of the individual. If your eyes burn even at the mere thought of what you want, the Universe will “catch fire with this fire” along with you. It is the cherished dream that becomes the very guideline that does not allow you to make a mistake at the twists and turns of fate. In order to fully reveal the meaning of the concept, I will give examples from the literature.

The path to a cherished dream is far from always easy; in most cases, in order to achieve it, a person has to overcome many difficulties, obstacles and face a misunderstanding of society. We have been convinced of this more than once by the works of Russian classical literature. Let us recall, for example, A. Green's extravaganza story "Scarlet Sails". The main character Assol is a vivid example of how faith in a dream can be stronger than external circumstances. From early childhood, she sincerely believed that someday a prince would come for her on a ship with scarlet sails. The surrounding ridiculed the girl for her seemingly impossible dream. But pure in heart and soul, Assol hoped for a miracle, despite the endless ridicule and insults. She stubbornly followed her path, for which fate rewarded her with the very miracle and cherished meeting with the same romantic dreamer. The girl's desire for pure and fabulous love, as well as to go beyond the limits of Caperna, can be called a "cherished dream", because it became an unmistakable guide in the life of the heroine, which did not let her give up and settle for less.

The cherished dream also guided the hero of M. Sholokhov's story "The Fate of a Man." He really wanted to return home from the front and bring victory to the family over the enemy. The man honestly and stubbornly walked towards this: he did not cowardly on the battlefield, did not surrender in captivity, over and over again he tried to escape from the Nazis and join his army. Despite the terrible conditions of detention, Andrei found the strength and ingenuity to escape, and even took a prisoner with him. This feat was appreciated at home, but the hero's dream was not destined to come true: his wife and daughters were killed. The son also died right on Victory Day. Sokolov lost his incentive to live, but found an orphan and decided to help by becoming a father to Vanya. So, a cherished dream guides a person through trials and difficulties, like a guiding star. This is the most reliable guide that restores our faith in the best even in bleak times of war.

Thus, the cherished dream is what we live for, what we strive for. Faith in it leads us along the only right path to the future that we want to receive. This is the guiding star that shows the way.

Interesting? Save it on your wall!

We are all dreamers. And everyone, probably, dreamed of a goldfish, a magic wand or a genie that will fulfill any desire.

Have you ever asked yourself what you would like more than anything in the world?

Travel, admire the beauties of other countries, learn a foreign culture, language and national traditions, discover something new, unknown in this world every day.

9. Be a role model

To be smarter than others, better, more successful than others, to teach, to be a role model. I want to be looked up to and set as an example.

8. Live on a desert island

The dream of many. The island in this case seems to be a kind of Eden, where, far from the bustle of the world and the noise of cities, you will live alone with wildlife: only the ocean, palm trees swaying from the warm breeze, hot sand, burning sun, and you lie in a hammock, peacefully contemplating the water surface.

7. Have many children

I would like to have children, preferably several, cheerful and mischievous, shy and thoughtful, and, of course, gifted.

6. Be famous

To be famous, to see your image on posters, to hear how your name sounds on radio and television, and on the Internet, regular fables are written about you. Signing autographs right and left, feeling that you make people happy just by saying hello or signing a poster. Feel the roar of the crowd of your fans, and feel like an idol, a kind of little god, an icon that is worshiped, loved and dreamed of.

5. Be rich

One of the very first desires that comes to mind. I want to have as much money as you want, an inexhaustible source, to feel complete financial independence, to fulfill all your desires and fantasies that can be realized for money. It is possible to do charity work, to help the poor, the destitute and the sick.

4. Have power

The desire for power is one of the most passionate desires. To be higher than the rest, to control people, entire nations, deciding their fate. The most dangerous thing is that for the sake of a thirst for power, people are ready to sacrifice entire nations to the slaughter, to unleash wars.

3. Have good health

Everyone wants it all the time. Health cannot be bought with money. Our well-being depends on good health, and without health we need nothing else.

2. To love and be loved

This desire is as old as the world. To feel care and affection, to know that someone in this world constantly thinks and cares about you. Love is a great joy and a real dream.

1. Be happy

Each of us, whoever he is, whoever he believes in and wherever he lives, wants to be happy. But what is happiness? To be happy, a person does not need wealth, he needs so much money to have enough for a decent life.

A person needs to love and be loved in order to experience happiness. We need children who give joy, for whom a person is both a teacher and an example to follow. He and his family need health to be truly happy. And a happy, beloved and wealthy person can afford to live anywhere in the world and travel around the world, enjoying life.

Therefore, happiness is the most cherished dream of all mankind.

“If I had not been a dreamer,” said Clint Eastwood, “I would not have achieved anything in this life.” A dream is the core around which all thoughts and actions revolve. A person without a dream loses the meaning of life. But for some reason, it is believed that dreams are one thing, and reality is completely different. Nothing happened! Let's try to prove that your waking dreams are absolutely real.

WHAT IT IS?

Dream, desire, goal, motive ... What are the only synonyms for this concept! Or maybe you just want to learn belly dancing. But scientists have long laid everything out on the shelves, and your desires too.

First, desires arise at the physiological level - you just want to eat, drink, sleep ... These desires are fundamental. The next level is the desire to protect yourself and your loved ones. At the same time, if you do not feel safe, then even in the case when nothing threatens you, you will figure out how to defend yourself. The third stage of desire is your need for love and belonging. And only then, at the fourth level, you should have ambitions and career aspirations. If these levels are interchanged, you will feel disharmony. You can achieve unprecedented career heights by taking advantage of the little: renting a one-room apartment in a disadvantaged area and eating noodles from bags. Excuses: “There is no time for personal life” will only work at the beginning, and then ... In general, you yourself understand. And only at the last, fifth level, you will want to create for the sake of the creative process itself, and not just work for a high salary. So the saying about the hungry artist has no scientific basis.

According to astrologers, what you want to achieve and what you strive for is the voice of the cosmos in your soul. If you fully follow this voice, you will achieve harmony with yourself, and this is happiness.

The question of the truth of desires is really important. Now, if a genie appeared in front of you now, would you be able to immediately name the three most cherished desires? Usually people call money, love, health… Because it is customary to wish in principle! We are social animals, and for us the opinion of the herd is more important than our own. And what: in pursuit of money, we go to an unloved job, and for some reason we personify love with this strange creature, with whom it is not easy, while others, for the sake of a healthy lifestyle, first refuse the most delicious dishes, and then besiege the offices of psychologists. We easily confuse a dream with the illusion of that dream. And with enviable perseverance we follow the goal imposed from the outside.

“I had a client,” says psychotherapist Boris Novoderzhkin, who claimed that he wanted to go on vacation to the Maldives. And so, he says, the rain outside the window! No end!

The explanation is this: a person really wants to move away from everyone, to get away from reality, so he wants to go to distant islands. But there you need to sunbathe, swim. And that's what he really doesn't want. And I want to sit in front of the TV and click the remote control. And that no one touched. Because in the pursuit of imposed socially desirable fantasies, he simply lost himself. In America, where the religion of success and leadership reigns, psychologists' offices are filled with successful but unhappy people in their prime. Especially successful women admit that if they turned back the clock, they would choose a path in which they would not have to sacrifice their real desires.

WHY COME TRUE?

Imagine that your desire, your fantasies are a clearly directed vector in a certain information space. There are many of these desires, and several vectors come from you. They intersect with the desire vectors of other people and form "nodes" (intersection points). Your desires can be completely different, and you don’t even know this person, because he lives somewhere in Africa. When a sufficient number of vectors intersect in the “node”, then an event will occur that seems to have nothing to do with you, but it will give each of you the opportunity to realize your desire. Scientists say that this is the secret of happy accidents. Conventionally, we divide desires into material and non-material. Buying a car of this particular brand or simply having a lot of money are material needs. At first sight. But if you ask a person the question: “Why do you need this particular car, why doesn’t that one satisfy you?”, then it turns out that in fact he needs speed, beauty, respect and attention from that young man. That is, in fact, all our desires are intangible, and a car, for example, is only a means to achieve other desires. And so, when time passes, you buy this car just because you wanted it. Your dream seems to have come true, but there is no pleasure. And all because your real desires were fulfilled in a different way: the young man already paid attention or drew another, even better, and they respect you even without this car.

From the point of view of psychologists, our desires come true because if we want something, then, one way or another, we move towards the goal. So, the main thing is that your goal is real.

HOW TO UNDERSTAND IT?

We take a piece of paper, a pen and write in the first column what we want. In order. And in another column, we try to answer the question: “Why do we really want this?”.

It may be that your dream, coming from the heart, has simply not been born yet. She doesn't need to be rushed. She will find you. One fine day you will see that everything turned out the way you did not even dream of. But the path to a dream is paved with our desires. Start small. Follow them like a path. And do not worry if you suddenly see that you are moving away from your main dream. One day you will look back, happy and harmonious, and you will see that you didn’t dream about all this either, and you don’t need that old dream anymore.

In general, the main condition for a dream to come true is its more or less ghostly presence. Other factors, such as age, number of adult children, tedious work, do not matter. The man who wanted to go to the Maldives dreamed of becoming a singer in his youth. But he went the other way, persistently convincing himself that this was the right path.

“And who is stopping you from recording your song now?” the psychologist asked him. A month later, a beaming client brought his CD. Let only his friends listen to him, but he himself. After all, he had already passed the level of desire for fame and recognition. He lacked creative self-expression for complete happiness.

STRATEGIES FOR FULFILLING DREAMS

How do people go to their dream? There are two life philosophies:

1. Do not ask for anything, they will come and give everything themselves.

Fatalism, faith in the omnipotence of fate, in predestination lives in each of us. This comes from childhood, when you know that you will always be taken care of, and as an adult, you internally believe that someone great and reasonable will arrange everything in the best possible way. But the law of happy accidents works if you send not one, but many vectors into the information space, and do not sit looking out the window when the prince arrives. Be calm, he will drive up, but when you least expect it. Fate does guide us through life, but it always gives us too much freedom of choice. Astrologers offer everyone to make their own birth chart, it is called natal. In it you will see in which area you will have more success, in which you will have a hard time. This is where fate ends.

2. Take action! A rolling stone gathers no moss!

The French philosopher Jean Paul Sartre came up with such a philosophical direction - existentialism. Briefly, its essence is that a person does absolutely everything in his life himself. And we can only rely on ourselves and our minds. But do you need to be active in achieving your goals to the point of exhaustion? Is it necessary to conform to someone's idea of ​​happiness? As always, the surest strategy is the golden mean: listen to yourself and act at the right moment.

HOW TO MAKE WISHES COME TRUE?

Magic Tips:

- Make your personal "Wish Map". Such cards came to Europe from the East, and historians say that all great people had them. So, grab a stack of magazines, scissors, and glue. Glue your photo on a large sheet of paper in the center. Now just flip through the magazines and cut out everything you oh-really wish you had. And not only material, but also verbally expressed. Let's say you see a takeaway in an interview with a star: "That's how I became a famous writer." And what you want most in life is to be a writer. Go ahead - cut out the words "became a famous writer" and stick it next to you. Dream car, dream house, dream laptop, the most cherished desires written in colored letters. Well, then look at him in the morning and smile. Just do not show anyone why people need to know about your most cherished.

Many books have been written about the magical properties of feng shui. This is not only a guide to the harmonization of space, but also a ritual, thanks to which you assert yourself in your abilities. And where there is confidence, there are achievements. Try it, it really works!

Practical Tips:

- American scientist Karen Pryor in her book "Do not growl not a dog" told how to train yourself for success. Everything starts with small things. That's if you're baking a pie and you drop the pan. What are you saying? Something like: "What a mess I am!". But when the pie succeeds, you are unlikely to praise yourself. And you need to do just the opposite. In case of failures, it is better to remain silent, and in case of any smallest success, praise yourself. Karen Pryor gives the example of a friend who wanted to learn how to play tennis. Every time the ball fell, he told himself he was an idiot. And he didn't succeed. On the advice of Karen, he began to say to himself for every successful hit: “Well done!”, And when the ball fell, he did not attach any importance to it. And what! Just a week later, he was already playing amazingly. Love yourself!

- Tell your loved one about your dream in detail or write an endless story about it. You will see that every time you will have something to change and detail. Speaking out your desires, you once again listen to yourself: is this what you want? And once you understand what you want, you will move in the right direction.

- Look for like-minded people. Only people who think the same way as you can understand you and give you confidence in your abilities. With the help of such a company, it will be easier for you to make the so-called “quantum leap”. There is a concept in psychology that came from physics. The bottom line is that the particle, under the pressure of circumstances, makes a sharp jump to another level. And there its direction, functions, etc. change. If you want to change the quality of life, start changing your environment and perception of life to the one that suits you best. Take action and the world will respond.

CLUES FROM THE OUTSIDE

Circumstance resistance

Is it worth it to overcome resistance? You want to work in this particular place, but you are not accepted here. You want to be with this person, but he is always unavailable. You want to buy this dress, but your size is not available. Relax and think - do you really need all this? Upon closer examination, it may turn out that you are achieving something because of hurt pride and pride, or because, for example, you saw this dress at a famous star, but you, by and large, don’t need it. In this case, the strategy of fatalism is best suited. Time will put everything in its place.

Astropsychologist Marta Slavutich commented on this as follows: “Great and real gifts from fate must be earned. And you have to fight for your dream. If you get everything easily and immediately, then you will need to pay for it later. The main thing is to endure trials with honor and patience.”

Failures and defeats

Freud has a theory about "I" and "over I". Each time a child receives a limitation of his desires, a higher level of Personality is formed in him. You saw how piles are driven at a construction site - one blow, two blows, slowly, rhythmically. Each of your failures is a blow to you. Painful, hard to bear. But this beat makes you think about yourself and those around you. The Soviet philosopher Mirab Mamardashvili wrote about it as wells of suffering, where wisdom is born. A person who has not suffered cannot fully experience happiness and understand their true desires.

Laziness

"And I'm lazy!" - said Emelya in a famous fairy tale. Once he took just one step, and all his wishes began to come true. But is it really that great - a magical pike? Imagine if all your wishes come true! What a way to control yourself!

Actually, being lazy isn't such a bad thing. My friend, for example, is still grateful that somehow she became too lazy to go to work, and she lied that she had the flu, and on that day the air conditioner crashed from the ceiling on her desk. If she had been sitting there, she would have been killed for sure. Laziness may turn out to be a hint from an inner voice that it’s better not to do this now. In the East, for example, slowness is considered the key to success. That is, sometimes being lazy is useful, the main thing is not to get carried away with it.

WHAT TO DO IF YOU WISH… NO?

WHAT TO DO IF YOU WISH… NO?

In fact, this is a topic for a separate article. When devastation comes, a feeling of the meaninglessness of life: “Well, I go to my good job, well, I’ll buy another dress, well, I’ll go to the country with my husband for the weekend ...”. You used to dream about all this, but now everything seems so ordinary. Why did it happen so? Where is the promised harmony? There may be several reasons:

1. Achieving all this, you have spent a lot of mental strength and now you need rest and relaxation. And just now new dreams are ripening in your soul. Wait out this period, do not rush headlong at least somewhere, at least for something.

2. Everything came to you easily, you did not spend almost any strength. It means that a period of stagnation has come in your life, and you need to shake yourself up, try something that is absolutely at odds with your current, which has become too familiar life.

3. You never set yourself serious tasks because you doubted your abilities. You just went with the flow. And the wishes remained unfulfilled. So, right now you need to experience this dizzying feeling of omnipotence when your dreams come true. Dig into your soul, remember what you always wanted, and do it! You'll see - it's easy!
