The Practical Dreamer's Handbook

by Paul Edwards

In three step-by-step sections, this guidebook offers practical ways to escape limiting beliefs, move from Desire to Action to Satisfaction, and marshal your resources to begin the lifestyle and career you have always wanted. You will discover how to:

Walk the path between practicality and your dreams of new possibilities

Create a new reality for your life

Appreciate the process of change and transformation

Enjoy yourself every step of the way

This book is for both those who have dreams they can't seem to find ways to pursue and those who can't seem to discover what dreams they'd like to pursue. It rejects both the traditional notion of waiting for a retirement that may never come to live your dreams and the popular model of being a slave to rigid goals and mind-numbing minute-by-minute planning that ends up bogging us down. Instead it provides a blueprint for combining creative imagination with practicality.

Ah the Edwards'. Sarah and Paul Edwards have written several books, some for working at home and other work (and life) related books. This book was one of their best. To help you bring your dreams to fruition. Regardless of what stage of life you are in (or your dream is in) this book will help you reconsider why you left that dream behind, encourage you to continue on with the one you're working on now or reinvigorate that one hiding just below the surface that you never really believed could make come true. Everything these two say is great. There is just so much information packed into every single one of their books. I love how they write and I love how they add their personal stories throughout. Its a great book. Don't miss out. And when you're done loving this one, move on to another one of their books. I am sure you will enjoy it just as much as this one. Great book! Keep up the good work Sarah and Paul and please bring us some more work at related books. They're very helpful! (and inspirational...they always get my butt in gear! :)

This book seems to have lots of organizational pointers and good common sense which makes it not applicable to everyone.

I have bought this book for many of my friends. It is life-changing and takes some time to read, since it is, after all, life-changing.
