THE INTERNATIONAL DAY FOR DREAMERS
THE INTERNATIONAL DAY FOR DREAMERS Spread the Word The International Day for Dreamers was created to unite the world in achievement and aspiration by setting aside a day to inspire, encourage the dreamer, visionary and innovator that lives inside all of us. We believe that when people are moving forward with their dreams, not only are they happier, but they are more innovative. Innovation is essential to creating a better world and we are on a journey to unleash a wave of innovation around the world. Our mission is to support individuals, businesses, organizations and communities in closing the Actualization Gap— the divide that exists between their aspirations and their ability to achieve them. We invite you to use DreamDay to BE the change you want to see in this world. @dayfordreamers * www.dayfordreamers.com * #dayfordreamers Held within each dream is hope for the future and held within each dreamer is a wealth of potential. DreamDay2013, seeks to unlock the potential held within individual and collective dreams and by doing so transform the world. What is DreamDay 2013? DreamDay is an international celebration of setting dreams in motion. Every year, many countries around the world honor the ability to labor with labor holidays. On Saturday, August 24th, the weekend before Labor Day in America, individuals, businesses communities and organizations all over the world will celebrate the ability to turn thoughts into action by honoring a simple truth: before one labors, one must dream. ***ANYONE can participate in DreamDay from ANYWHERE in the world.*** What will actually happen on that day? DreamDay2013 is a day of activation. On or before August 24th, participants will download a digital toolkit, as well as have access to FREE tools and resources that will support them in setting their dreams in motion. Participants are invited to engage in activities of their choosing, as well as create their own unique contribution (DreamWork) for themselves, their family, friends, colleagues and community. Here are a a few examples of what people created last year: GreenDreamers Roundtable (Manhattan), DreamBathing at the beach (St. Lucia), DreamYoga (Australia), DreamRoulette at Governor’s Picnic (Canada), Dream Dating (Atlanta), TeenDreamers (Nigeria), DreamDay@church (Brooklyn), DreamPoetry (Chicago). Have a picnic/BBQ, host a Dream gathering, stage a flashmob, create a community workshop, dance party or a social soiree… Head over to here for more ideas… We invite you to participate in these Key DreamDay Activities: • Dream Declarations: Take time out of the day to focus on a dream, a goal, a desire and think of three actions you could take to make this dream real. • Dream Dialogues: All it takes is one conversation to change your life. Sign up to engage in a 20 minute conversation as either a giver or receiver. Giver helps someone explore a long held dream while the receiver explores one for themselves. Have the conversation in person or over skype/google+. Register and have a conversation that creates +change. • DreamDay Celebrations: Gather anyone from your family, friends, neighbors, coworkers, and colleagues to celebrate what is possible in your life, business, community. Meet other people who can help you transform your dreams into reality. This sounds great, but what’s the REAL PURPOSE behind DreamDay? Dreamers are the backbone of change and innova4on and it’s 4me they be honored. DreamDay is an open invitation for the world to innovate and try something new that moves all of us in the direction of our dreams. On that day, Individuals, businesses communities and organizations all over the world will declare their dreams and commit to one action that creates change in a life, a family, an organization (private/ public sector) and/or a community—for the better. All of these actions in concert contribute to the creation of a better world, filled with brand new possibilities. Check to see if there is a celebration going on near you. If not, create it! The world needs dreamers. The world needs doers. but above all the world needs dreamers that do. ~Sarah Ban Breathnach
