Your Checklist to Change the World
Star Date 10.08.2025
Years ago, I had this wild thought—I could change the world. I told some friends. They laughed. I kept dreaming anyway. I told more friends. They laughed too.
It didn’t happen overnight, but slowly I began to see glimpses that I was making a difference. Eventually, the laughter stopped. And then, new friends began showing up in my life—the kind who believed the same thing I did. Together, we discovered something: there’s a kind of checklist for dreamers who are bold enough to believe they can change the world.
Here it is:
Dream big.
Write everything down about your dream.
Find at least one person who will stand by you when you go to work.
Take action.
When others laugh at you, become deaf.
Every time you fall down, get back up.
Make your first hour of the day your most important hour, dedicated to living your dreams.
Move forward, even if it’s only one inch per day.
Seek out people who support your dreams.
Don’t follow the crowd.
Today, there are only a few who no longer laugh when I share my dream to change the world. If you are one of them, thank you.
I’ve been through some dark valleys recently, but let’s just say the sun is finally breaking through. Instead of talking about what’s next on my list, I’m choosing to stay quiet and focus on checking off every box.
What about you? Are you ready to change the world? It starts with a dream. So tell me—what’s yours?
Have a great day.
Captain’s Addendum
As Captain Michael, I’ve learned something vital: a starship doesn’t move forward by drifting. It requires intention, direction, and trust in the crew around you. Dreams are like warp drives—they only ignite when fueled by action and courage. Today, I’m setting a course forward. One inch at a time if necessary, but always forward.
Spock: “Indeed, Captain. Logic dictates that incremental progress, though seemingly small, leads inevitably to greater outcomes when consistently applied.”
Bones: “Blast it, Michael, you make it sound simple. Life has a way of knocking us down hard. But I’ll give you this—you keep getting back up. That’s what matters.”
Michael: “Thank you, gentlemen. Let’s just say this checklist is my way of keeping the ship on course, even when space gets dark.”
Scripture Pairing
"For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."
—Jeremiah 29:11
