Making Your Dreams come True by Marcia Wieder is a book that seeks to pull you out of your comfort zone. Written by someone who left a dream job and set out to San Francisco to chase her dream and fulfill her long lost missions. The book could be broken into 3 simple parts.
Decide What You Want
Most of our lives we are lost in the chase. We are after what everyone else wants, we are studying in grand universities and chasing a dream job. Wieder asks you to question yourself about what you really want. With tricks and tips, she tells you to determine what you, the inner you, wants. Finding out, probably, a long-lost passion.
Remove Self Obstacles
Wieder says that the only thing probably stopping you from getting to your goals is yourself. If you remove your self-doubt and have a little more belief in yourself, you will get where you want to be. All the materialistic and worldly problems are inefficient to stop you, if you think you can beat them.
Take Simple Steps Towards IT
Once you’ve decided what you want, there’s nothing that could stop a person chasing their passion, says Wieder, but wait! Don’t run, don’t jump onto something. Nothing is done in a day. It takes years to build something from scratch, that’s what you are out for. Take it slow, one step at a time, you have your goal ahead of you not break it down into easy steps and work towards it.
You’ll reach there, slowly, eventually, but when you’ll be there there’s nothing you’ve felt like it.
Verdict
Though a good read, there are books that explore each area of the book more deeply and In a much better way. Its the appearance of Wieder on TV that attracts in curious readers and thinker who want inspiration from someone already on the peak of the mountain.
