It marks a big step in your development when you come to realize that other people can help you do a better job than you can do alone – Andrew Carnegie

A dream is a compelling vision you see in your heart that’s too big to accomplish without the help of others – Chris Hodge

If you desire to realize your dream, you need a team to help you. It is hard to list all of the ways a team can help you. Here are a few suggestions to consider…

My team makes me better that i am.

My team multiplies my value to others.

My team enables me to do what I do best.

My team allows me to help others do their best.

My team gives me more time.

My team provides me with companionship.

My team helps me fulfill the desires of my heart.

My team compounds my vision and effort.

My team empowers me to realize my dream.

It is not enough to have a dream – you need a dream team!

To Recruit a Dream Team – Transfer The Vision.

Transfer The Dream Logically

If people do not believe they will not buy into the dream. Communicating the dream logically is the first step in gaining credibility with people. You need to demonstrate that you have a grasp upon the situation that you are describing. Secondly, you must have a sound strategy. Strategy breaks down a vision into manageable parts. This communicates this dream is attainable.

Transfer The Dream Emotionally

When you can present your dream logically people will most likely stop resisting. In order for people to connect, you must connect emotionally.

What people do not feel they do not buy into. Show people your dream from their perspective. Appeal to their senses! Show people your heart. People will but into the dreamer before they buy into the dream itself. To transfer a dream emotionally let them see your heart. Sharing your hope tells the story of your dream.

Transfer The Dream Visually

Make your dream visual – bring it to life! If people cannot see the dream, they will not buy the dream. Coach John Wooden perhaps did this the best by transferring his dream of integrity and excellence to every person who played basketball for him.
