Excitement about goals is often diminished by our fear of failure or the drudgery of work.
If you’re short on passion, it might be because your goals are too small or the fear is too big.
Do a job for a long time and achieve what you set out to achieve, and suddenly, the dream job becomes a trudge instead. The job hasn’t changed–your dreams have.
Mostly, though, it’s about our fear. Fear is the dream killer, the silent voice that pushes us to lose our passion in a vain attempt to seek safety.
While you can work hard to dream smaller dreams, I think it’s better to embrace the fear and find bigger goals instead.

Well, small dreams are good. We build our house with hundreds of small bricks :).
And forest that gives life to hundreds complex life forms come from each small seed that grow bigger.
I think, don’t afraid to start our step with a small dream, since it grow into a big reality that embrace many others ;).
