Are you a dreamer? Me too! Because there is so much wisdom, creativity and inspiration in our dreams. Incredible! I believe not only in the power of our dreams, but also in their ability to become reality. Whether unconsciously at night or consciously during the day: With these three steps you can use the power of your dreams and achieve your inner goals.

I have to make a confession to you: I am a dreamer! I really like to dream – even during the day. I'm not allowed to say it out loud, but I actually often lie down on my fluffy bathroom rug, close my eyes and imagine how my day could go: For example, I go for a stroll on 5th Avenue in New York, stop at the luxurious Peninsula Hotel and drink a hot cup of chocolate. That sounds wonderful just reading it, right? Even!

Dreams are my reality!

Everything is possible in our dreams. We can fly as high and as far as we want. We can take on any role and travel anywhere we want. We are free. That's why many people believe that dreams have nothing to do with our reality. Maybe that’s why ‘dreamers’ have a somewhat glorified reputation in our society. But hey, what would our world be, what would our life be without our dreams? They give us the courage and strength to grow beyond ourselves. But: To do this, we also have to have the trust in ourselves to follow these dreams. And when I'm a little unsure, I think of my father's sentence. When I was asked as a little girl what I wanted to be when I grew up, he explained to me: “My little girl, you can be whatever you want!” Isn't that a beautiful sentence? You can become whatever you want! You decide, not others. These words have had an immense impact on me and continue to give me wings today. I can fly anywhere with them. (That's also the name of my book, by the way “How dreams learn to fly”. In it I describe how you can make dreams come true. Believe me, it works. I've experienced it myself!) In order to get into "doing," as the Americans say, I have adopted a morning ritual: Every morning I imagine what I want my life to look like in five years. And then I ask myself: What can you, Judith, do today to get a little closer to this dream. This is my way to bring it to life. I think it's such a shame that many people don't dare to follow their real dreams and only do what others expect of them. And choose the supposedly safe path.

It’s true: Our dreams often lure us out of our comfort zone. What if my dream is just an illusion? What if I fail? Even if the people around you or the voices in your head tell you otherwise: your dreams are worth living!

These three tips should help you make your most beautiful dreams become reality:

Is there something that you have been dreaming about for a long time? Become fully aware of your vision by writing it down. Or paint on it. And in epic width and the most beautiful colors. And, very important: in the present tense! Yes, just be brave! What images appear in your mind’s eye? And how does it feel when you live your dream?

Resolve to do something every day to achieve your dream. Listen to your inner voice: it will tell you what to do next. And even if it's just a small step: take it. Enjoy your journey and don't compare yourself to others. Every dream is different and this is yours!

You probably know the saying: Don't dream your life, live your dream. People often talk about missed opportunities – in the same breath. I prefer to think about the possibilities! Waiting inaction until the “perfect moment” comes is a waste of time! Get active and take your dreams into your hands. Most of the time we regret not what we did, but what we didn't do. In this sense: Go, girl, go!

“Never ever stop dreaming.”
