FACTS
 Humans spend about 6 years dreaming
 Dreams are generated in the forebrain
 Most common emotion experienced during dreaming is anxiety
 The U.S. ranks the highest amongst industrialized nations for
aggression in dreams with 50% of U.S. males reporting aggression
in dreams, compared to 32% for Dutch men
 Men generally have more aggressive feelings in their dreams than
women, and children's dreams do not have very much aggression
until they reach teen age
 This supports the view that there is a continuity between our
conscious and unconscious styles and personalities
 In men's dreams 70 percent of the characters are other men,
while a female's dreams contain an equal number of men and
women
WHAT ARE DREAMS?
 word used to describe the subconscious experience
a)sequence of images,
b) sounds,
c)ideas,
d)emotions,
or other sensations usually during sleep, especially REM
sleep
 What is the purpose of dreams? Do we need to dream?
Are dreams an interaction between your subconscious
and conscious?
Why do we dream?
A dream is an internal ego experience of
meaning occurring internally during sleep

REM sleep
 REM stands for “Rapid Eye Movement”
 Eugene Aserinsky discovered REM sleep in
1953 while working in the lab of his PhD
advisor. Aserinsky noticed that the sleepers'
eyes fluttered beneath their closed eyelids. He
later used a polygraph machine to record the
sleeper’s brain waves during these periods.
WHAT DO YOU THINK ABOUT MAMMALS AND
BIRDS ?
 "One thing that's unique about
mammals and birds is that they regulate body
temperature," says neuroscientist Jerry Siegel, director
of (University of California, Los Angeles)UCLA's
Center for Sleep Research.
One evolutionary adaptation is that animals sleep in safe
sites where they can be less vulnerable to attack by
predators. Dreams are the byproducts of sleep
phenomena
SO, WHY DO WE DREAM????
 Scientists generally seem to agree that
dreaming is a form of thinking during sleep.
Dreams contain at least some psychological
meaning, but this doesn't necessarily prove a
purpose, such as problem solving. Overall,
our understanding of dreams is still quite
vague.
 What do you think?
Dream = Goal
• Do you believe a Dream and a Goal
are indeed the same thing?
-The dictionary defines a dream as: A condition
or achievement that is longed for; an aspiration.
Defining Your Dreams…
• What is a dream?
• What is YOUR dream?
-Money?
-Security?
-Fame?
-Happiness?

WHAT ARE OUR DREAMS AND WHY IS IT NOT
ACHIEVED ALWAYS?
 Childhood Dreams –
 Dreams and Ambitions Change as you grow
older-
 Talent and Potential
 How is it identified?
 Purpose of Identification
 To diagnose educational needs
 To correlate educational services to a
student’s individual needs
WHAT ARE OUR DREAMS AND WHY IS IT NOT
ACHIEVED ALWAYS?
 Statistically……between 3% and 5% of the student
population is gifted / talented.
 The Texas State Plan for the Education of Gifted /
Talented Students defines a gifted/talented student
as… “…a student who performs at or shows the
potential for performing at a remarkably high level
of accomplishment when compared to others of the
same age, experience or environment and who…
…exhibits high performance capability in an
intellectual; or…excels in a specific academic field.”
WHAT ARE OUR DREAMS AND WHY IS IT NOT
ACHIEVED ALWAYS?
 Rasmus Ankersen, founder of RFA Performance
& Research, and Author of the Book Goldmine
Effect, tried to crack the code behind today’s
talent gold mines.
 Why have the world's best middle-distance
runners grown up in the same Ethiopian village?
 Why are 137 of the world's 500 best female
golfers from South Korea?
 What is the secret behind Brazil's mass
production of soccer superstars?
WHAT ARE OUR DREAMS AND WHY IS IT NOT
ACHIEVED ALWAYS?
 Three key lessons regarding the art of
identifying real talent
 What you see is not necessarily what you get
– Asafa Powel - Great talent spotters
understand this principle. What’s important is not
the performance in itself, but what caused it and
the story that lies behind it.
WHAT ARE OUR DREAMS AND WHY IS IT NOT
ACHIEVED ALWAYS?
 If people come with problems, they come
with potential - . Shelly Ann-Fraser - if
someone comes with problems, they also come
with potential. –
 Keep an open mind and adopt a wide view -
Swedish high jumper Stefan Holm
WHAT ARE OUR DREAMS AND WHY IS IT NOT
ACHIEVED ALWAYS?
 How often have you told yourself this: “I’d LOVE
to pursue my dream … BUT …
 I’m not an expert
 I’m too young/too old
 People tell me to get a “real job”
 It’s tough in the “current climate”
 People don’t support my dream
 What if I fail?
 I don’t have time
 I don’t like people
WHAT ARE OUR DREAMS AND WHY IS IT NOT
ACHIEVED ALWAYS?
 It’s “risky”
 I’m waiting to be inspired
 I’m planning on thinking about possibly doing it
sometime … maybe
 I probably can’t beat the competition
 I don’t know what I’m doing!
REALISING ONE’S DREAM
• What was your ambition when you were a child?
• Is that still your ambition? Or have you changed
it
• Where are we now? Where we want to be?
• Why is the disconnect between dreams and
reality? Causes, reasons
• Why are we not able to achieve our dreams
• Expectations vs. reality
• Educational system, upbringing, social
influences, Blinding, stereotyping
• Talent identification and nurturing mechanism
• How much effort we brought forward to
achieve our dreams. Own contribution
• Identification of one’s passion and dreams
• Exams are memory tests. Does not test ones
talent and passion
• Why IIT graduates take MBA and become
bond traders?
• Short Survey on whether you have achieved
your dreams
• List of things you really want to do before you
die. Tracking changes over time
•
• Steps in realizing ones dream
• Differentiate the need set which are changing
and the one that defines you always
• Developing clarity of thought and focusing on
what we need
• Latch to the signal and avoid noise
• Am I actively moving in the direction of my
goals and dreams each and every day?
QUOTES
• Dreams are today's answers to
tomorrow's questions.
• A man is not old until regrets take the
place of dreams.
• Dreams are the touchstones of our
character.
• All our dreams can come true, if we have
the courage to pursue them.
STEPS IN REALIZING ONES DREAM
1. Always remember and understand that
success goes hand in hand with positive
attitude. The more you think in a positive
way, the more likely you will be able to
become successful.
2. Forget painful scenes in your life! If you go
on remembering the painful scenes in your
life, it will lead you to a downward direction.
That is why it is important for you have to
understand the facts about being positive in
your life. It can really change your life!
3. Write down one or two important goals then
figure out the steps needed to accomplish
them.
4. Take the steps one at a time. It's fairly easy to
do the little steps that over time lead up to y
our goal. Your dreams can come true, but not
by just sitting there.
5. Do something to realize them. It's your time
now, it doesn't matter what kind of dream is.
6. Remember famous peoples were like you
before but they just made their dreams come
true, and you can to. So if your dream is to be
a singer, footballer, actor or whatever; just show
your talent in it.
CONCLUSIONS
 The leading scientific theory is that sleep has a
large function in memory processing.
 It appears from different research studies that
different stages of sleep have different functions
with respect to memory processing.
 Future research is needed to better identify these
functions.
 It also remains to be understood, whether dreams
have a specific function, or are simply a byproduct
of memory processing in sleep.
