“The power of imagination makes us infinite.” — John Muir
One of the most inspiring campaigns I’ve ever seen is Honda’s The Power of Dreams.
It’s a series that reminds us how our dreams stir us.
It’s a series that reminds us how dreams challenge us to take on the impossible.
And crush it.
It’s our big dreams that spur innovation and drive progress today and tomorrow.
It’s our dreams that advance humanity and lift us to higher ground.
And at a simple level, it’s our dreams that bring us joy.
Dream onward and upward.
What are the Dreams that Stir Your Heart?
Watch the video The Power of Dreams by Honda.
Do you have a dream you can’t let go of? What is it that stirs your heart?
Dreams challenge us to go from “I might fail” to “I will prevail” when we take on the impossible.
When you believe you can change the world, eventually that’s exactly what you do.
Dream where you want to go.
Here are inspiring words about big dreams and innovation from Honda’s epic Power of Dreams campaign:
“What is it that stirs your heart?
Ignites your passion?
Spurs you onwards?
Upwards?
…It’s your dream.
At the beginning, dreams look impossible.
But maybe, just maybe… impossible is another way of saying challenging.
And if that’s true, you can change, ‘I might fail’ into ‘I will prevail.’
Take these guys, who dreamt of mobility for everyone, with a simple bicycle with a motor.
Unlikely, sure.
Impossible even.
But it was a dream they just couldn’t let go of.
And when you believe that you can change the world, eventually, that’s exactly what you do.
So if you’re inspired, if you’re moved by a dream, you’ll never settle for a compromise.
With your heart stirred and your passion fired, you’ll let nothing, and no one, stop you.
Because if you set your own rules, there’s no one to stop you from breaking them.
Dream about the future.
And keep moving towards it.
Go the extra mile.
Endure the hard yards.
Do whatever it takes.
And wherever they lead you, stay true to your dreams.”

Here are inspiring words about big dreams and innovation from Honda’s epic Power of Dreams campaign:
“Ah, the power of dreams.
Fantastic. Creative.
They enlighten us. Challenge us.
And inspire the big ideas that drive innovation.
Our story begins with just such a dream.
One born of ingenuity, invention, and reinvention.
Exhilaration.

Zigging, while others zag.
And setting pulses, racing.
Those dreams live on today in our associates drive to create joy for our customers.
And their support for the communities where we live.
And work.

and renewable energy powers our homes, our cities, and our industry.
We bring dreams to life because dreams bring joy.
They thrill and challenge us…
… give us hope
… move us forward.
The smiles we create, we create for everyone.
So join us on our journey, and let’s see where the power of dreams takes us next.”
Forever Determined and the Spirit of Sheer Determination
Watch the video Honda—Forever Determined:
Honda is a company driven by dreams. When faced with a challenge, they overcome it with sheer determination.
This spirit of determination has sparked industry-leading successes.
Here are inspiring words about big dreams and innovation from Honda’s epic Power of Dreams campaign:
“When we were a motorized bicycle company, they said that’s fine for the streets.
But you’ll never win a race.
They said motorcycles are on thing, but you can’t make cars.
Alright, you’re a car company, but you won’t win Formula One in a hybrid.
You can’t break a land speed record.
Air, will not conquer the air.
Well, you’ll never make a real truck.
Or compete off road.
Yeah, well, what if you can’t see the road?
What about when there is no road?
No land?
No gas?
They’ve challenged us to do a lot of things.
What will we do next?”
