Own Your Dreams.....by best-selling author, John Maxwell

 Our happiness in many ways ties directly to our "inner voice" that forever asks the question..."Are you moving toward your dream?" If your answer is "yes," then hope breeds contentment. However, if the answer is "no, it's too late," despair may fester within your subconscious. You might not even realize why your life lacks joy.

 Own Your Dreams is so different in that this is not a "pie in the sky" approach. Instead, John provides a step-by-step action plan that you can start using today. He asks straightforward questions, and provides a guide to help you create the right answers, and to make good decisions along the way.

 In summary, don't leave your dream to chance. This little book is a must-have, and can make the difference between success and failure.





In fact, here's a snapshot of what to expect:


Part I: What is Your Dream?

  An excerpt from
Own Your Dreams
by John C. Maxwell If you are unsure of what your dream might be—either because you are afraid to dream or because you somehow lost your dream along the way—then start preparing yourself to receive your dream by doing five things to put yourself in the best possible position to receive a dream.

Once you do these five things, focus on discovering your dream. As you do, keep this in mind: 'A dream is what you desire if anything and everything is possible.'

1. Mental Preparation: Read and study in areas of your greatest interest.
2. Experiential Preparation: Engage in activities in areas related to your interests.
3. Visual Preparation: Put up pictures of people and things that inspire you.
4. Hero Preparation: Read about and try to meet people you admire and who inspire you.
5. Physical preparation: Get your body in optimal shape to pursue your dream.
