Today’s Miracle Moment Is About How to Keep Believing In Your Big Idea (Even When No One Else Does)…
Have you ever had a dream that felt too big, too bold—or too lonely?
Maybe you’ve shared your vision with someone, only to be met with blank stares, concerned looks, or worse… discouraging words.
They didn’t get it. They didn’t believe. And for a moment, you wondered if you should.
If that sounds familiar, here’s your loving reminder from the Universe:
You don’t need the whole world to believe in your dream.
You just need you.
Let me tell you a story that proves how powerful one person’s belief can be.
The Puffin Man Who Refused to Quit
In the 1970s, a young biologist named Steven Kress had a wild idea.
He wanted to bring Atlantic puffins—those adorable, colorful seabirds sometimes called the “clowns of the sea”—back to the coast of Maine, where they had vanished decades earlier due to overhunting.
At the time, no one thought it was possible. Experts told him puffins wouldn’t stay. That they’d just fly back to their native breeding grounds in Canada.
His peers dismissed him. Even other seabird researchers told him to move on.
But Steven had something powerful on his side:
A vision. A gut feeling. A belief.
He’d spent time around puffin colonies in Canada. He knew how special these birds were—and he just knew there had to be a way to bring them back.
So despite the naysayers, Steven went to work.
Creative Solutions and Years of Waiting
Steven and a small team hand-raised puffin chicks from Canada and transported them to an island off the coast of Maine. They fed them, cared for them—and waited.
When the birds grew big enough, they did what birds do.
They flew away.
But Steven didn’t give up.
He sat on the island for hours, watching and waiting. Then, he got creative:
He built wooden puffin decoys to attract returning birds. He made the island look like a puffin party—hoping others would want to join.
And then… nearly 10 years after he started, a puffin finally came back.
That was the beginning.
Over time, Steven dealt with new challenges like predatory birds, and he kept innovating solutions. Today, there are more than 100 pairs of puffins thriving on the Maine coast—restoring the ecosystem and bringing life back to the land.
And here’s the kicker:
The very scientists who once doubted him now use his techniques to restore seabird colonies around the world.
All because one person believed in his big idea… and didn’t quit.
Why This Matters for You
Here’s the truth:
✨ If you’ve been given a dream, it’s not random. It’s not impossible. It’s yours for a reason.
✨ People may not understand it, because they’re not meant to. They weren’t given your vision.
✨ It’s not their belief that brings it to life. It’s yours.
We often look for outside approval to give ourselves permission to start. Or keep going.
But like Steven, you might not get it. Not at first.
His secret?
He didn’t chase approval. He chased possibility.
Even when it looked like nothing was working, he kept showing up. He lived in what I call the Land of All Possibilities—a space where, instead of focusing on what can’t be done, you look for what can.
That’s where dreams take root and grow.
Your Dream Might Not Be About Puffins…
But maybe it’s about writing that book.
Starting that business.
Healing a relationship.
Being the first in your family to live a new kind of life.
Whatever your dream is, it might be met with silence, doubt, or resistance from others.
That’s okay.
Let doubt sharpen you—not stop you.
Let resistance refine you—not intimidate you.
You are the only one who needs to believe right now.
Because you never know…
Your dream might just be the one the world has been waiting for.
