Put Your Dream to the Test

I just had the chance to review a new book by best-selling author John Maxwell called, “Put Your Dream to the Test”. We’ve all had dreams, but not all of us have lived them or made them reality for a number of reasons. And while I’ve realized some of mine, I feel I still have many more to live.

Maxwell covers the following topics in his book:

1. The Ownership Question: Is my dream really my dream?
2. The Clarity Question: Do I clearly see my dream?
3. The Reality Question: Am I depending on factors within my control to achieve my dream?
4. The Passion Question: Does my dream compel me to follow it?
5. The Pathway Question: Do I have a strategy to reach my dream?
6. The People Question: Have I included the people I need to realize my dream?
7. The Cost Question: Am I willing to pay the price for my dream?
8. The Tenacity Question: Am I moving closer to my dream?
9. The Fulfillment Question: Does working toward my dream bring satisfaction?
10. The Significance Question: Does my dream benefit others?

Reading “Put Your Dream to the Test” is putting not just my dreams, but also me to the test. In reading it, I’ve been challenged to ask myself the questions it poses and to make decisions that make it clear that I am the one responsible for whether or not I will go for my dreams and give them a try. After reading this, I feel strengthened and empowered to do something about them!
