I joined Writing.Com in January 2009. The first item I uploaded to my portfolio was "My Psalm.

I was delighted when I received this message:

         I will always remember the first time I saw this!

The second item I uploaded to Writing.Com was:

 Make Your Dreams Come True  [E]
YOU have the power to make your dreams come true.
by ruwth


I had originally written this essay for my college English Comp III class. My professor had given me either an A or an A+.

So, what did the reviewers on Writing.Com think about "Make Your Dreams Come True?

I was expecting accolades. I got 2.5 stars. Here is a link to one of those: Review of "Make Your Dreams Come True" by Keni .

That was a rude awakening but I accepted the constructive criticism and began revising, revising, revising.

You can see my original essay in a dropnote. The finished product (if indeed it is finished) is much more polished thanks to the feedback I got on here.

Many of the reviews are linked in another dropnote.

Here is a three star review with lots of feedback:

Review of "Make Your Dreams Come True" by Sara♥Jean

My favorite line in the original essay was: "You hold the key (or keys) untried within your bosom." It did not stand up to the scrutiny of my fellow WdC members and was cut from the current version.

What do I like best about "Make Your Dreams Come True?

The steps:

Step One: Envision Your Dreams
Step Two: Internalize Your Vision
Step Three: Take Daily Steps
Step Four: Push Through Obstacles
Step Five: Relish Your Victories
Now Do It Again! Back to Step One


Sadly, I have never made a dream come true. In spite of that, I believe in the power of these steps. Do you?
