A Quick Note (as disclaimers go)
This guide is an overview of the Imagine Nation* Method of Dream Realization. It highlights the key components that will enable you to move forward on your dream, offering key points to ponder and utilize on your journey to realizing your goals. It assumes you are willing and eager to take this journey and that you are confident enough to make the journey on your own. Everyone could use a little guidance and this book is just the tool you need. With its help, you will stay focused and on track.
Do not read this in one sitting; it is best if you work a chapter at a time. Remember you are on a journey, so working a chapter a week gives you the time to travel that journey as well. So read a chapter, take time to implement the suggestions and insights offered, and then come back and move to the next chapter. In this way, you will not only gain more from the Quickstep Guide, but your dream will benefit from the concentrated attention you are giving to it.
Many times a person may turn to a goal strategist, life coach, or self-improvement source as a way of dealing with inner demons. Be aware that this guide does not take the place of a mental health provider in any way. We all share similar experiences of frustration and triumph, however, the assumption here is that you are relatively healthy: physically, emotionally, and mentally. Take any issues in your life that are preventing you from moving forward in a constructive manner to a licensed therapist in the area of treatment you need. Do not look for such assistance from a coach or self-help book. Get the best professional help possible so you can begin your goal realization journey with a mindset that is strong and ready to move forward!
While on the subject of healthy mindsets, note that this is for those who live a life of normalcy grounded in decency. It is amazing how often people ask me what would happen if the dark-side of humanity were to apply these methods. Yes, truly, people wonder about such things! So to keep us all safe: ax-murderers, sociopaths, government terrorists, or any other like-minded individuals need not continue reading. Stop and step away from the book!
That last part, though seriously intended, does give you an idea of the approach here. Your journey to realizing your dream will require a lot of time and effort on your part. The tools needed to see it through should not. So there is a bit, just a bit of light-heartedness, maybe a pinch of sarcasm, and definitely a whole lot of optimism built in. It is amazing how a smile can help change your perspective. Those of you who live with what one might call a normal-mindset
should pick up these characteristics easily.
On a more serious note, and with normal being relative, if you have had negative experiences in your life or find yourself currently in a less than desirable place this guide does not mean to trivialize or diminish your situation. However, neither will it dwell on the past or expect you to. The Quickstep Guide assumes that you have chosen to journey to dream realization because you are ready to move forward and make a positive change in your life. It assumes you are ready to enhance your life by taking this journey now.
With all this in mind, let the journey begin.
"A dream is the essence of a goal;
a goal is the enhancement of a life!" (N.E. Nordstrom)

Cooking Up The Journey
You are ready to begin the journey to realizing your dreams. You have wondered and pondered and it has brought you to this pinnacle moment: do it or don’t. You are choosing to do it, to follow through on what has been simmering in your brain for quite a while now.
You may have noticed that dreams and goals don’t just materialize instantly. Unfortunately, we do not recognize the potential in them instantly, either. Conception usually takes place in an unrecognized moment. A single word, a simple comment, a slight gesture can ignite a spark. Eventually, that spark, flames into action beginning the process of bringing an idea to a raging boil within our imagination.
This heat is what induces us to acknowledge the birth of a new idea, of a change we want to attempt. At some point that heat encourages us to either stir the contents of the pot or remove it from the fire completely. In your case, you decided to stir the pot and you created a dream.
What has your imagination conceived for you? Is it time to pursue a self-improvement like losing weight, better time management, or spiritual fulfillment? Are you looking for new excitement in your professional life: a career promotion or a complete job change altogether? Do you feel a need to be more creative or a desire to market your creativity for profit? Is it time to take your business, or yourself, to the next level
?
Whether your dream is to look the way you did at eighteen or head your company’s East Coast Division, it is of value and worthy of the journey you are about to take to achieve it.
Remember: the dream is yours. Your imagination conceived it and you have chosen to achieve it. No one can take it from you, no one can stop you from pursuing it – unless you let them. Unfortunately, many decided to do just that, let other dissuade them from what they feel is their true course. You need to know and do what is right for you. When you do, through that wonderful osmosis that takes place when you create change, you will find that others will do the same.
So decide now, are you ready to begin the journey? If so, your dream is waiting.
"The dream you are living is your creation…
your perception of reality that you can change at any time…
you have the power to create heaven." (don Miguel Ruiz)
The Prepared Traveler
A goal is the enhancement of a life. It not only enhances your life but also, through the osmosis mentioned above, enhances the lives of those around you. Simply
