Own Your Dreams: Discovering Your Purpose in Life
Our happiness in many ways ties directly to our “inner voice” that forever asks the question…“Are you moving toward your dreams?” In Own Your Dreams, John C. Maxwell provides a step-by-step guide to help you achieve your dreams.
“It’s never too late to be what you might have been.” ~ George Eliot
All of us have a vision of what we want our life to be, but few of us know how to actually make those dreams a reality. Luckily, John C. Maxwell shares his forty years of expertise in his book Own Your Dreams. John lays out the most common roadblocks people encounter in achieving their dreams and then shows you how to clarify and build your dreams for the future.
I’ve known hundreds of high-profile people who achieved big dreams. And I’ve achieved a few dreams of my own. What I’ve discovered is that a lot of people have misconceptions about dreams.
A genuine dream is a picture and blueprint of a person’s purpose and potential. Or as my friend Sharon Hull says, “A dream is the seed of possibility planted in the soul of a human being, which calls him to pursue a unique path to the realization of his purpose.“
Sadly, far too many people have dreams that are not genuine, but simply wishful thinking that fills their thoughts but will never fulfill their lives. ~ John C. Maxwell.
As an internationally recognized leadership expert, speaker, and author who has sold more than sixteen million books, John has spent the last forty years studying successful people. In Own Your Dreams, he will show you how to secure your dreams and overcome the most common roadblocks to making your dreams a reality.
John C. Maxwell’s step-by-step action plan asks straightforward questions, and provides a guide to help you create the right answers and to make good decisions along the way. In fact, here’s a snapshot of what to expect:
Part I:
What Is Your Dream?
Five Common Roadblocks
Preparing Your Dream
Owning Your Dream
Part II:
How Will You Achieve It?
Building Your Dream
Securing Your Dream
