Session 1: Dreaming Along the Road to Bliss

You will explore dreams and how they can shape a life story. You state your wildest dreams and then discuss needs, dreams, and various types of dreams. You will also take time to plan your journey.

  1. Read the following in your girl book: “Wanted: Dream Seekers” and “Your Ticket to Dreamland” (pages 4-7) in the Live It! Side & Dream Maker Award information (pages 3-6) in the Give It! Side

2. Take some time to write down some of
your greatest, wildest, or most
outlandish dreams! If you have other
Ambassador friends, you might get
together on a group phone or webcam
call and take turns sharing some of
these dreams.
*Considering that the theme
for this Journey is dreams and how to
achieve them, reflect on the dreams
you wrote down or that your friends
shared. Are they achievable? Was it
hard to think of dreams?

Introduce yourself in the comments and then state your greatest, wildest, or craziest dream. Also, share with us whether you believe or don’t believe that you can achieve it.

Hi, I’m Selah, a rising senior from the Bay Area! My wildest dream is to be able to grow my own produce (fruits and veggies, mainly) when I’m older! I’ve always wanted to live in a rural area to get away from the hustle of modern life–and I really like the idea of relying on myself and my own hard work to get by.

Hi! I am Demiana from troop 140027 in Texas. My wildest dream is to be like Mother Teresa. Yes I know it’s hard especially with how busy life is getting every day and the emphasis society puts on your social and financial status, but I do believe it’s possible if I take it step at a time and look for opportunities to help around me whenever I can and pray to become a better person.
Also I was wondering if the book is mandatory for this journey or can I just complete the activities in this pdf

Thank you!

Hi! My name is Deanna Wood and I am part of a troop in California. My wildest dream is to get into an IV Leauge school for university. I believe that I can achieve it if I work hard enough and persevere.

Hi Deanna, I went to Cornell University, one of the Ivy League schools in Ithaca NY. It was a wonderful experience and I loved my classes and professors. Look around at lots of colleges and see what they offer. If you have a chance to visit and sit in on a class, eat in the dining hall, visit the library…I think that helps you to get a sense of whether or not it’s the place for you. Work hard, get good grades and do a meaningful leadership project for your gold award. Colleges are looking for students who bring more than just good grades. They’re looking for students who have a passion and excitement about pursuing a goal. I think your well on your way.
