As a teenager, you may have many dreams. These dreams can be very big, like winning the Nobel Prize, or can be small, like becoming one of the top ten students in your class. Once you have a dream, what will you do with it? Have you ever tried to make your
dream come true?
Follow your heart written by Australian writer Andrew Mathews, tells us that making our dreams come true is the biggest challenge in our lives. “ You may think you‟re not very good at some school subjects or that it is impossible for you to become a writer. These kinds of thoughts stop you from making your dreams come true,” the book says.
In fact, everyone can make his dream come true. The first thing you must do is to remember what your dream is.
Don‟t let it leave your heart. Keep telling yourself what you want. Do this step by step and your dream will come true faster because a big dream is formed by many small dreams. Also, never give up your dream.
There will be difficulties on the road to achieve(实现)your dreams, but the biggest difficulty comes from yourself. You need to decide what is the most important. Studying, instead of watching TV, may bring you better grades, while saving five yuan, instead of buying an ice cream, means that you can buy a new book. As you get closer to your dream, it may change a little. It is good if you have the chance to learn more skills and find new interest.
