Dreamstealers

Written by Paul Piotrowski - Thursday, January 12th, 2012

The world as we know it right now will end in 2012.

A new world will be born.

Humanity is about to go through a massive shift.

One of the energies that is accelerating that change is the awakening that many Lightworkers are going through right now in respect to “Dreamstealers”.

What Are Dreamstealers?

Dreamstealers are the people in your life who have these qualities about them:

  • They fail to take responsibility for anything in their own lives.  Instead they always have someone to blame – from the Government, to the Rich, to everyone else.
  • They always see the negative in every situation, and hide under the guise of “Just being realistic.”
  • They are the first ones to point out everything that could possibly go wrong.
  • They destroy your dreams, and hide under the guise of “I do it because I love you and I don’t want you to be disappointed.”
  • They are often unhappy and miserable with their own lives, yet at the same time they believe their way of doing things is the only/right way.

Almost all of  us have people in our lives who exhibit these qualities – be it friends, co-workers, acquaintances or family members.

The 2012 Shift

Up until 2011, most of us tolerated Dreamstealer abuse and negativity because in a lot of cases it was just easier that way.

A lot of us even felt sorry for these people, especially in the case of friends and family members.

However, in 2012 and moving forward, that is no longer good enough.

Almost all of the Lightworkers I have spoken to in the last three weeks have begun expressing this energy of “I’m not going to let them steal my dreams anymore.  I’m done.”

I believe this is a global phenomenon.  We’re all awakening to this right now.

The Lightworker Rescue Mission Ends

Up until now, many Lightworkers were under the wrong impression that it was somehow their job to “rescue” these dreamstealers from their own negativity.

We would listen and allow these negatrons to spew their negativity, thinking that “It’s OK, I can handle it.  I’ll show them the positive side as soon as they’re done.”

We would let them “vent” and then offer a positive perspective/spin on what they just expressed to us, in hopes of “showing them the light” and helping them to feel better.

The challenge is that they don’t want to see the light.

What they do want is to temporarily feel better – (which is good) – but the way that they go about this is by STEALING your light instead of by connecting to their own.

You can’t help a Dreamstealer by giving them your light.  That is a short-term solution which leaves you drained and them only temporarily feeling better.

By letting them “feed” off of your positive energy, you’re in effect giving them their “fix” instead of allowing them to find their own inner light.

This is not in alignment with the highest good.

The Secret Weapon of Dreamstealers

However destructive this challenge of letting Dreamstealers “feed” off of your light energy is, it actually pales in comparison with the bigger challenge that this situation creates.

The bigger challenge that this situation creates is that it robs the world of the CREATIONS that Lightworkers are supposed to be creating.

You see, it takes a lot of light energy to bring an idea/creation into this world.

It takes a lot of energy to raise our own vibrations to allow us to create and manifest something new and amazing at a level higher than we have ever created.

Ideas and inspirations are like infants.  They must be protected and shielded from the outside environment, just like you would protect an infant.

A lot of Lightworkers I know have amazing ideas and aspirations.

They have great aspirations for starting & building businesses, or transforming their lives in some way.

The challenge is that most Lightworkers I know have not been aware of the secret “weapon” that Dreamstealers have, which kills and destroys their ideas and aspirations.

Many Lightworkers believe that if they invest X number of hours into a project, or new business of some sort and 99% of that time is spent feeding positive energy towards the project, then it doesn’t really matter what happens the other 1% of the time.

Most Lightworkers BELIEVE in their positive beliefs.  They believe that their new business idea or new project is the right thing to do.  They are convinced that they are right and no Dreamstealer will ever be able to convince them otherwise.

This is why most Lightworkers haven’t really cared about the negative opinions of a few co-workers, friends or family members they are exposed to from time to time.

Their thinking is “I know what I’m doing is right, those negative people can’t convince me otherwise.”

And they are right.  Dreamstealers, in almost all cases, CAN’T convince you that they are right and you are wrong.

The challenge, however, is that they don’t have to!

You see, the secret weapon of a Dreamstealer is NOT to convince you that you are wrong and they are right.

They know they don’t need to do that.  All they need to do to completely throw you off track is to introduce DOUBT and FEAR – even in small amounts.

Often times that is all that it takes to destroy your dream.

You see doubts and fears paralyze people.

If I was a Dreamstealer I wouldn’t need to convince you that your dream/idea/inspiration is WRONG.  All I would have to do is introduce REASONABLE DOUBT that your ideas is RIGHT.

All it takes is a little tiny bit of REASONABLE DOUBT and your idea goes POOF!

Let me give you an example.

Let’s say that you are currently working at a job you hate.  You know it’s not the right job for you and you have decided that it’s time to leave.

Sure enough, you manifest a business opportunity which you are very excited about.  This opportunity feels right, it aligns with your highest values and you are super excited to start building this business.

Deep down you KNOW that this business opportunity is better for you than the job you’re at.

So you start taking the necessary steps to build this business and to hopefully, one day be able to quit your job and do the business full time.

Now you come across a Dreamstealer who gives you their “opinion” of what they think of your business idea.

They themselves have never actually owned a business, operated one, or had any success with a business in their lives.

So basically they’re talking out of their asses when giving you this advice – but nevertheless that doesn’t stop them from telling you ALL about how your business idea is flawed.

After one hour of listening to their negative garbage, you’ve had enough.

You excuse yourself and go do something else.  You brush yourself off and keep trucking on.

Over time, however, your excitement about your business starts to dissipate.

You start to wonder if maybe there was some truth in what they were saying.

Is it really the right time to start a new business?

With the economy the way it is?

What if it doesn’t work out?

What if you lose your job because your boss finds out you’re starting a business?

What if this happens or that, or some other thing?

You see…what’s happened is that the Dreamstealer has INFECTED you with DOUBT.

They didn’t CONVINCE you that your idea was bad or that your business venture was not right for you…. they didn’t have to.

All they did is they just created a little, tiny, itsy-bitsy DOUBT.

And that’s all it takes to destroy most ideas at their infancy stage.

Let me ask you this… if you fed an infant baby healthy breast milk from the mother several times a day, every day for 3 months… and then just once fed it poison, what would happen to that infant?

I think the answer is pretty self evident, right?

Would it matter if you tried to then go back and feed it healthy food again?

No, once the infant is poisoned, it’s poisoned!

This is exactly what DOUBT and FEAR create in our lives.

The bad news is that the Dreamstealers in your life have most likely been responsible for poisoning thousands, if not tens of thousands of possible ideas and inspirations in your life.

The good news is that if you STOP allowing them to do this in 2012 and onwards – your life is going to transform so quickly, you’ll be absolutely amazed.

Our Addiction to Dreamstealers

This post is not about blaming the Dreamstealers, however.

You see, it’s not really their fault.

They are what they are.

Dreamstealers are like cigarettes.  They poison your body, but it is YOUR choice whether your smoke them or not.

You can’t blame cigarettes for being cigarettes.  They’re just pieces of dried up tobacco wrapped in paper.

It is our addiction to cigarettes that’s destructive, not cigarettes themselves.

It’s the same thing with Dreamstealers.

Most Lightworkers are addicted to being around Dreamstealers.

The reason for this is because when we begin to pursue our dreams and aspirations, we inevitably end up hitting the outer edges of our comfort zone.

Meaning, we have an inspiration and we get excited about.

We start to pursue it and everything is going great.  But sooner or later, in order for us to bring those aspirations into fruition, it means that we have to go past our comfort zone and GROW in some way, shape or form.

This is where most of us self-sabotage ourselves, by picking up the phone and calling a Dreamstealer or by meeting up with them in person.

Instead of facing our fears of going beyond our comfort zone, it’s much easier for us to distract ourselves by getting around someone negative.

We get around them, and listen to them spew their poison.

When the conversation is over, we have allowed them to poison our aspirations.

However, another part of us justifies this by thinking “It’s good I called them, because they were totally having a bad day (yet again).  I’m sure I made them feel better.”

And the destructive cycle continues.

You get to stay safe inside your comfort zone with your new aspiration now being suffocated and killed by the doubts injected into your consciousness by the Dreamstealer, and the Dreamstealer gets their “fix” of positivity for the day.

Shielding Yourself from Doubt / Fear and Negativity

2012 is all about letting go of this addiction.

It’s about surrounding yourself with positive, inspiring and encouraging people who will help you to GROW your dreams and aspirations, and will support your growth even if it means you having to get a little bit out of your comfort zone.

It’s about letting go of your co-dependencies on Dreamstealers who are just looking for their positivity fix.  It’s time to let them discover their own light inside, not to offer up a piece of your own.

It’s time to fully embrace your dreams and inspirations and let your light shine.

  1. Hey Paul, again awesome post. I see myself in your words. I agree completely The time to live the dream is now.

  2. Paul,

    That is so interesting that you put it that way, because I definitely used to be one of those people who was always starting off with,”But what if this? And what if that?” and worrying all of the time. Then after I went through Automatic Intuition my everything changed – outlook, attitude, all of it, because I saw it for what it was – anything (pretty much) is possible, and every day “realistic what-ifs” actually have zero to do with reality. Pretty neat. Now I never, ever discourage anyone from anything and if someone starts to chip away at my plans and dreams I start to get a headache and excuse myself before it is too late. Quite necessary, you are so right about this.

    Hi Paul,

    A great post. Surprisingly, I have been thinking about the power of fear and doubt in our lives. Doubt begins the chatterbox in the head and fear is action-paralyzer. You are very right about their effects. I really like how you turn this around and call us to let go of our addition to fear or dreamstealers. Well done!

    Thank you, Paul! I’ve been disconnecting from dream stealers in my life more and more. I find it hard to tolerate negative talk so my alarm bell rings very quickly. Thanks for reminding me of my responsibilty.

    Great post Paul, I love it!!
    As I was reading I was also thinking that watching television is like that too. All the negative news, and shows about how people are in debt, or overweight, whatever problem it is that the media would like us to focus on.
    Maybe we should all stop watching so much TV along with allowing dreamstealers to fade out of our life.
    I couldn’t agree more that it only takes that little bit of self-doubt to stop inspiration in its tracks.
    I find that meditation can help a lot with getting rid of those thoughts that are not serving our highest and best good.
    Thanks for sharing
    Happy New Year.

      Absolutely! The News on TV and even online is filled with negativity. One of the main reasons for this is that people just don’t respond to positive headlines anymore. You put a story on about something positive and people flip the channel but if you put a story on with a headline like “Innocent Child Murdered in Her Sleep” or something horrible like that and people are glued to see what happened.

      Go to any news site and make a tally of how many headlines are talking about something positive and how many are talking about something negative. It will shock you.

      The most negative people I know are also the ones who watch the most news. A lot of them don’t dare miss the news at all the times it airs, like 6pm, 11pm or whatever the time and they also listen to it in the car on the radio.

      The news is a major negative programmer.
