We designed Trigwee having in mind a purpose – people to know the dreams of humanity. Silicon Valley is a special area for the future development of the humanity, considering the importance of technology in today’s economy. In the same time, this area is populated by highly creative and innovative people that make an important impact on our planet. That is why we chose to highlight their dreams with the help of this project. Knowing what they are dreaming about, anyone can get involved and contribute to the creation of a better world.

That is why we are working on this, while in the Valley : http://www.dreamsfromthevalley.com/

There is also a question to be answered by the results of this project. Is there a connection between a person’s, a community’s dreams and their economical development?

We are going to ask a couple of questions intended to explore the dreams of each person. We answered these questions ourselves, here they are:

What’s your dream?

The dreams of the people from Silicon Valley to be accessible worldwide.

What inspired you to dream it?

A broader dream, that people know the dreams of humanity and also the huge impact that entrepreneurs, students, artists, investors, tech guys, teachers from silicon Valley generate in the world.

What’s the impact that you intend to achieve?

If anyone will know what dreams of Silicon Valley are, anyone could get involved in order to contribute to the creation of a better, more interesting world. Also, as a result, we intend to publish a book with the same name and donate the generated revenue.

Who would you like to be involved in this dream?

All extraordinary people from Silicon Valley area.

• Columbus dreamed of an Unknown world, staked his lie on the existence of such a world, and discovered it.

• Copernicus, the great astronomer, dreamed of a multiplicity of worlds, and revealed them. No one denounced him as “impractical” after he had triumphed.

• Henry Ford, poor and uneducated, dreamed of a horseless carriage, went to work with what tools he possessed, without waiting or opportunity to favor him, and now evidence of his dream belts the entire earth.

• Thomas Edison dreamed of a lamp that could be operated by electricity, began where he stood to put his dream into action, and despite more than 10 000 failures, he stood by that dream until he made it a physical reality. Practical dreamers do not quit!

• Lincoln dreamed of freedom for the black slaves, put his dream into action, and barely missed living to see a United North and South translate his dream into reality.

• The Wright brothers dreamed of a machine that would fly through the air. No one may see evidence all over the world, that they dreamed soundly.

• Marconi dreamed of a system for harnessing the intangible forces of the ether. Evidence that he didn’t not dream in vain, may be found in every wireless and radio in the world.

“If the thing you desire is right, and you believe in it, go ahead and do it! Put your dreams across, and never mind what they say if you meet with temporary defeat, for they, perhaps, do not know that every failure brings with it the seed of an equivalent success,” Napoleon Hill.

*The examples in this post were extracted form Napoleon Hill’s book “Think and grow rich”.

Just dream big and have mind blowing results in this new year!

With love, Trigwee team.

The default future is a concept proposed by Steve Zaffron and Dave Logan in their book: The Three Laws of Performance. This is the future that each of us privately fear or hope for. It is not a fantasy we don’t believe in, but it’s something that seems like the truth about us and our future. For example, in a down economy, the default future for most of us is “spend less, work harder, grab for straws, panic that you’re likely to get laid-off or fired, be paranoid that others question your performance, dread the company won’t tell you how bad things really are – and hope or pretend that none of this is really happening, cross your fingers, pray for a miracle and wait for it to get better.”

Then there are the mindsets, which one can shortly describe this way: “Whether you think you can change things or not, you are right.” Have you ever heard this before? In her book called Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, Carol S. Dweck discusses two fundamental mindsets that people tend to adopt, the “fixed” mindset and the “growth” mindset. According to her, people who adopt the fixed mindset believe that “we live lives mainly determined by heredity and that most of our attributes are, if not carved in stone, largely resistant to efforts to modify them”. Those with a growth mindset “see themselves and their lives as amenable to choices and effort. They are not wishful thinkers who think that simply believing something is possible is enough to make it happen. Growth mindset individuals are willing to make the effort required to bring about their goals and to realize their dreams.”

These concepts are some interesting tools one can use in order to redesign our futures. How so?

First of all, in order to change a thing you have to be aware about the fact that that thing exists. So start by acknowledging the existence of the default future. Then, based on what your daily actions, thoughts, fears, doubts are, envisage your default future. What does it look like? Is it something you want to keep or rather cut and start fresh?

Then, play a little bit with your mindset. What’s the category you fall in? Make sure you are sure that the change is possible.

On the third step erase everything: remorse, feelings of guilt, of pride, prejudices. Imagine you have a piece of paper with a drawing on it. Then, imagine you draw something another over that initial drawing. What would your masterpiece look like? In order to have a beautiful, accurate drawing you should have a clean piece of paper, right? Think of the masterpiece as your life. Make a cleaning first, then start designing your future.

Now you have the positive mindset of a powerful person. You have a clean space on which you can build. Fill it up wisely. Dream big and beautifully. Dream your most desirable future. Action ambitiously upon your dreams!

Dear friend,

I am Vlad – one of the founders of Trigwee – and I’ve already spent 19 million minutes of my life. I am writing to you as a big fan of life. By the way, did you know that, on average, a person lives around 34 million minutes?

When there’s millions left to be spent, you tend to think: “Oh well, that’s enough for almost anything”. Enough to enjoy, experience, achieve. I believe that it’s not so simple.

Not all the minutes that I’ve spent were happy. We spend minutes killing our dreams. We spend minutes ignoring how powerful and inspiring we can be. We spend minutes reacting and not creating.

That’s why I’ve started investing and stopped spending. I now invest in designing and living my dreams. Even though I haven’t yet designed them all, I have a long list of dreams I want to live.

Why would you invest in your dreams?

• Because life is great and you want to enjoy it;
• You want to be the player and not the witness of the game;
• You don’t want to be alone, but rather together in your most ambitious dreams;

What would you get by investing in your dreams?

• Meaningful conversations with the people that share your dreams;
• People wanting to fulfill your dreams;
• A safe and positive space where you can share your dreams;

Curious how you can get all these instantly?
It’s simple: Create a new dream to achieve and step into a new life right now http://www.trigwee.com/dream/create

PS: If you’re not into investing, I can understand that. Keep spending, but spend wisely at least: it takes a minuscule amount of your time to create a new dream to achieve. Every minute is important.
