Eventually One Dreams The Real Thing - Unveiling the Path to True Success

The Power of Dreaming

Dreams have always been a driving force behind human progress. They are the sparks that ignite our inner desires and propel us towards pursuing a fulfilling life. While we often associate dreams with fantasies and illusions, it is important to acknowledge their potential to shape our reality. Eventually, one dreams the real thing.

The Journey of Self-Discovery

Embarking on the journey towards realizing our dreams is not merely about fulfilling a wish; it is a path of self-discovery. Dreams act as a compass, guiding us to explore our unique ambitions and aspirations. By listening to the whispers of our heart and following our passions, we unlock our true potential and find the fulfillment we crave.

So what does it mean to eventually dream "the real thing"? It encapsulates the process of transforming our dreams into concrete reality. It signifies the moment when our vision materializes, and we attain the success we have strived for. This pursuit requires dedication, perseverance, and an unwavering belief in oneself.

Setting Realistic Goals

While it is essential to dream big, setting realistic goals is equally crucial. Each dream must be broken down into actionable steps to ensure steady progress. By defining clear objectives and creating a roadmap, we can navigate the inevitable challenges along the way and remain focused on the end goal.

The Role of Determination

One common trait among individuals who eventually achieve their dreams is unwavering determination. The road to success is often riddled with obstacles, uncertainties, and setbacks. However, it is our determination that keeps us pushing forward, even in the face of adversity. Without determination, dreams remain elusive fantasies.

The Supportive Network

While individual determination is vital, surrounding ourselves with supportive individuals can significantly impact our journey towards realizing our dreams. A strong network of mentors, friends, and like-minded individuals provides guidance, motivation, and a sense of community. Their belief in our abilities can fuel our determination and help us overcome challenges more effectively.

Celebrating Small Victories

On the path to eventually dreaming the real thing, it is important to acknowledge and celebrate small victories. Often, success is not an overnight achievement but a collection of countless small wins. By recognizing and cherishing these milestones, we remain motivated and positive, propelling ourselves towards the ultimate realization of our dreams.

Embracing Adaptability

The journey of chasing dreams is dynamic, with unexpected twists and turns. Embracing adaptability becomes essential as we navigate through changing circumstances. Being open to new possibilities and adjusting our strategies along the way allows us to stay aligned with our core dreams while embracing the necessary modifications required for success.

The Essence of Patience

Patience is a virtue that separates those who eventually dream the real thing from those who give up along the way. Dreams are not instant gratifications; they require time, effort, and resilience. By cultivating patience, we can persevere through the inevitable delays and setbacks, knowing that every step brings us closer to fulfilling our dreams.

Living the Dream

Eventually, when we reach the point where our dreams transition into reality, we experience unparalleled satisfaction and joy. The hard work, determination, and sacrifices become worthwhile as we savour the fruits of our labor. At this stage, life takes on a new dimension, where dreams and reality converge, and success becomes a natural extension of who we are.

Achieving True Success

True success transcends material possessions or professional achievements. It lies in living a life that aligns with our passions and values, a life where we wake up every day with a sense of purpose and fulfillment. Only when we eventually dream the real thing can we experience this profound connection between our aspirations and our reality.

Eventually one dreams the real thing, representing the beautiful convergence of dreams and reality. It is a journey of self-discovery, determination, and patience. By setting realistic goals, surrounding ourselves with a supportive network, and embracing adaptability, we inch closer to realizing our dreams with each step taken. Once we achieve true success, we find ourselves living a fulfilling life that resonates with who we are at our core.

A starred review in Library Journal says this about Eventually One Dreams the Real Thing: “Only a poet as accomplished as Boruch could make such beautiful verse while leading us through the everyday, of life’s subtle, steady shiftings (‘the bird’s hunger, seeking shape’). If the opening image of a pool filled with cruelly dredged up roses bespeaks quiet assent (‘I stood before them the way an animal/ accepts sun’),the next poem turns immediately to progress (and hence progression) as a modern invention beyond the heaven-and-hell alternatives; finally, the poet concedes, ‘I lose track of my transitions.’ In fact, transition defines us. Here, a static painting gives way to ‘between and among,’ a simple typeface never yields a perfect copy, and even in a medieval score, two exquisite quavers are connected by a slur. Highly recommended.”

"Marianne Boruch's work has the wonderful, commanding power of true attention: She sees and considers with intensity."—The Washington Post

"Boruch refuses to see more than there is in things—but her patience, her willingness to wait for the film of familiarity to slip, allows her to see what is there with a jeweler's sense of facet and flaw."—Poetry

In her tenth volume of poetry, Marianne Boruch displays a historical omnipresence, as she converses with Dickinson, envisions Turner painting, and empathizes with Arthur Conan Doyle. She looks unabashedly at the brutality of recent history, from drone warfare to the disaster in New Orleans from Hurricane Katrina. Poems that turn her gaze towards childhood, nature, animals, and her own poetics are patches of light in the collection's chiaroscuro.

From "Before and Every After":

Eventually one dreams the real thing.

The cave as it was, what we paid to straddle
a skinny box-turned-seat down the middle, narrow boat
made special for the state park, the wet, the tricky

passing into rock and underground river.

A single row of strangers faced front, each of us
behind another close
as dominoes to fall or we were angels lined up
politely, pre-flight…

Marianne Boruch is the author of ten collections of poetry. She is the 2013 recipient of the Kingsley Tufts Poetry Award, and has taught at Purdue University since the inception of their MFA program. She lives in West Lafayette, Indiana.
