IMG_20150906_130303I just got off the phone with my friend and mentor James Dickson.  He gave me a simple formula for dreaming big dreams.  Get out of “Here” by focusing on “There”.  So here’s my reflection on what that means.  I hope it will help you get out of “here” in your life.  Focus your sights on “there” as a spiritual discipline.  Not easy.  I’m still working at it!
