Description

• Know more about what their dreams are, what they wanted to do
• Know the knowledge and skills needed to make this dream come true
• look for community / group / people with same goal and motivation
• Be aware that it is better & easier if you find a team to encourage you, learn the skills and the knowledge required ( people with same & similar dreams " In the MozFest event "/ a learning group " In the Internet : Massive Open Online Courses / In facebook : facebook Groups .. "
• Keep in mind that people without a dream, or couldn't make their dream came true they will try to destroy others' dreams
• Manage the feedling of failing in protecting a dream ( something that we love )

  Agenda

1 / After a brief Ice breaker, the participant need to write down his dream in the balloon after listening to some inspiring talk or watching a video. Then we need to know about the majority of the dreams and write also the knowledge and skills needed ! 2 / I will give everyone a toothpick and I will ask them to protect their dreams ( balloons ) for 1 minute ! Normally, they will try to attack other balloons, and we will end up in less than 30 seconds with all the balloons destroyed. 3 / The conclusion, it's that alone, it is not that easy to protect a balloon but if a group decided to create a circle or a wall to defend one balloon ! they would make it = this is the power of a community and group work !

Participants

The session is the same for 3 , 15 or even 25 participants ! Just in case no one started attacking the ballons with the toothpick, I need a facilitator who will start attacking the balloons.

Outcome

It depends from the communication tool that we will choose, but we will try to keep in touch after the event ! Help each others to know people with similar dreams / sharing motivating videos and advices regularly,

This is really a great idea for expressing dreams and how to make a big effort to keep them still up
