Over the years the dream has evolved, from riding as a pillion to riding on my own until the ultimate and seemedly unachievable dream – to own my very own Purple Heritage Softail. In January 2011 YEARS before I could have imaged it, despite mediocre finances and in the midst of a very tight financial market - my dream came true! I took delivery of 1584cc’s of pure purple grunt in the form of a brand new 2011 Harley Davidson Heritage Softail Classic.
Whilst all this is exciting, it’s what happened later that week that’s amazing and the inspiration for my blog. I found amoungst some papers a dream board I had created only 6 months earlier – it had some nice words like family, fitness & fun and pretty pictures of bundles of money and people I didn’t know walking along beaches I didn’t recognise. All very airy fairy stuff, but it also had a picture of a Purple Heritage Softail! – The ONLY specific dream on my dream board was of my Purple Harley!
My Harley taught me – Yes, Dreams really do come true, But only when you know what your dreaming for. So get specific with your dreams,
· You don’t want time to yourself; you want a pedicure every week.
· You don’t want to be rich; you want $1,485,614.50.
· You don’t want to be fit; you want to be able to run 5km’s in 20 minutes.
· You don’t want to travel; you want to visit every Harley Davidson Shop in the World!
