A RECIPE TO DREAM

Take one dream. Dream it in detail . Put it in your own hands. See its final outcome clearly in your mind . Mix it with a little effort and add a generous portion of self discipline . Flavour it with a wholesome pinch of ambition. Stir briskly with confidence until the mixture becomes clear , the doubt separated from the resolution . Bake at an even temperature in a moderate mind until the dream rises and is firm to the touch. Decorate with individuality . Cut into generous portions and serve with justifiable pride . Approached in this manner, life is a piece of cake . Good luck . Good luck is what almost always comes to those who use the recipe for dreaming and , having dreamed their dream , never give up until they have it . Written by Bryce Courtney, published 1994 .
