Light a Match Under Your Dream

'' You have to Light a Match Under Your Dream'' she said. This was the line of the character Madam CJ Walker in Self-Made.

It resonated so much with me that I had to stop the episode. What does she mean and what is my dream?

There is more than one - sometimes too many to even be able to focus on one thoroughly.

I decided to look through the internet to find out how one can possibly define their dream.

I keep waking up each morning and find myself having a new dream for my life. Remnants of the past or the day before are still there. Yet new in-roads are created for me to move forward.

4 in 1 dream
