Very Helpful

The subtitle of this book indicates it is an action guide to help you reach your goals. Gabor offers practical advice on how to go about accomplishing desired results. Throughout the book there are tips on how to go about turning dreams into reality. Key words include: commitment, planning, action, and persistence. Gabor is a self-confessed dreamer himself. He describes how he made his dreams come true and gives examples of other dreamers who did the same. I like the quote he included from Stephen Leacock (1869-1944), "It may be those who do the most, dream most." To my follow dreamers, this is a book that helps you see reality unfold as you pursue that which is unseen in the physical. It enables you to "see" the future in your "mind's eye" until it becomes manifest.A big portion of that transformation is in taking small steps, i.e., doing the little things along the way toward the dream. He devotes a considerable amount of time discussing how to implement one's plan of action. He encourages readers to "take any that may further your progress." Action overcomes inertia and the fear of rejection. In summary "go for it!"

Very nice self-help book. I should have read it much ealier.

This book, unlike many other self-help books, does not try to inspire spiritually or mentally. Rather it simply teaches how to break down the things, do them one by one, thereby achieving the goals that we want. Everything the author mentions makes very good sense. Actually, it's just common-sense that we normally don't realize while we do things. However, the author explains it so well in wonderful phrases and in a contructive and practical way that such common sense like stuffs sound like some valuable adage. Also, this book is sort of a workbook. Not simply just reading. Geez, I should have read it long years ago. But then this book was not available then. IMHO, it will really help you if you have bunch of goals that you have not make happen. Also very good for young readers. I am buying it for my daughter, but I will definitely sneak in it too :-)
