Do you have a dream you want to achieve? What are your dreams? Have you planned and started the process? How is the progress?

A dream is the flame of our life. Without it, we may exist, but we are not really living.

To live the dream means to live our best life. It is to have the kind of life we want. And becoming the kind of person we want to be.

The road ahead to achieve our dream will not always be easy. There will be many obstacles along the way, whether external or internal.

Here are 8 things that hold you back from pursuing your dream:

1. Lack of courage

You can accomplish anything you want in life if you dare to pursue it. Lack of courage can prevent you from moving forward. Also from pursuing your dream, and achieving what you want in life.

This usually happens when you find yourself in unknown and unfamiliar situations. But with a little effort and practice, your courage will improve.

“Courage is grace under pressure.” — Ernest Hemingway
