5 ways to kill your dreams

All of us want to invent that game-changing product, launch that successful company, write that best-selling book. And yet so few of us actually do it. TED Fellow and Brazilian entrepreneur Bel Pesce breaks down five easy-to-believe myths that ensure your dream projects will never come to fruition.

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.
