Chasing your dreams

01.10.2025

We often hear that success is not for everyone. It may sound harsh, but there is a deep truth in it. Just like in nature – not every lion that runs after a zebra will catch it. But one thing is certain: every lion that caught a zebra had to chase it first. This is a lesson we can use in our own lives.

Many people dream about a better job, a healthier body, or a happier life. But dreaming alone is not enough. If we don't start chasing our dreams, they will stay only as imagination. Just as a lion will never catch a zebra if it stays lying in the shadow, we will never reach our goals if we don't move forward.

It is also important to accept that not every attempt will be successful. We might fail. We might fall down. But failure is not the end – it is an experience that makes us stronger and prepares us for the next chance. A lion that misses the zebra doesn't give up – it tries again, because its survival depends on persistence. And persistence is exactly what separates those who achieve their goals from those who settle for average.

So, ask yourself: what is your "zebra"? Maybe it is your dream career, a healthier lifestyle, or the ability to build a strong relationship. Whatever it is, remember: the first step is to start. You don't need to be perfect; you need to be determined.

Every success begins with the decision to chase your goal. And even if the road is not easy, it will shape you into the person who is able to make their own dreams come true.
