Unfortunately it takes a whole lot of effort, a whole lot of persistence, and a whole lot of sacrifice of your precious time if you truly wish to make your dreams come true someday, hold them in your hands, and call them yours. For you cannot expect your dreams to appear in front of your face if you're not willing to put in a whole lot of effort, you cannot reach for your dreams with your hands if you're not persistent enough, and you especially cannot live your dreams if you're not willing to sacrifice some of your precious time to make them come true. It's as simple as that, and it's your decision alone to be willing to make that kind of effort, have that kind of persistence, and sacrifice some of that precious time of yours that you are afraid to admit you have, because you don't really want to lose it. You don't really need to read a book to tell you otherwise. You don't really need to read a book to learn that your dreams exist for a very special reason. What that reason is? Beats me, I don't really know, for you are the only one who truly knows that reason, question that remains is, how hard are you truly willing to fight for it? ( )

It’s been a while since I read a book by John Maxwell, and now I remember why that is.

Maxwell’s most recent publication, Put Your Dream to the Test should be a must-read for anyone wanting to see their hopes and ambitions become reality. But it isn’t.

For starters, I’m not really sure who actually wrote the book – John Maxwell, his staff of quote researchers, or the hundred people whose quotes and anecdotes he strings together to try to make a cohesive statement.

Don’t get me wrong. At times, PYDTTT soars and is inspiring. At other times, it plods. Maxwell’s uncritical use of quotes and their context is like reading a Chicken Soup for the Soul book (He tells the story of the chicken soup books in this book).

He does help you evaluate your dream/goal with diagnostic questions which form the basis for each chapter’s content. The 10 questions are:

1. The Ownership Question: Is my dream really my dream? (I would love for him to ask, “Is my book really my book?”)
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?

The chapter on the cost of your dream was, for me, the best one in the book. I found myself underlining more there, at least.

Each chapter begins with an inspirational story of someone who has achieved a great dream. These stories alone make the book better. It’s when Maxwell attempts to derive steps and propositional bullet points from their experiences that the book becomes stale and linear.

Andy Stanley’s Visioneering remains one of the best books out on the subject of vision/dream pursuit. Maxwell’s book, Put Your Dream to the Test is inspiring, but its content seems to be more cut and paste than cohesive. ( )

Last night I finished John Maxwell's latest book, Put Your Dream to the Test. I really enjoyed this book. Maxwell is like Kevin Costner to me. I'm always hesitant to see his movies because I think I'm going to hate it or be bored by it, but I don't know if I've ever seen a Kevin Costner movie that I didn't like at least a little, and most of them I absolutely loved. Similarly, I always assume I'm going to be bored with a Maxwell book, but I love all of them once I get into them.

Put Your Dream to the Test is the best book I've ever read at helping you take a dream and turn it into reality. Maxwell guides the reader through 10 questions to help you assess your dream and decide whether or not it can become a reality. Is my dream really my dream? Do I have a strategy to reach my dream? Have I included the people I need to realize my dream? Am I willing to pay the price for my dream?, etc...

If you're a dreamer, or want to be, and you want to get serious about seeing your dreams realized, this is the book for you. Inspiring stuff! ( )

I've read two of John Maxwell's books before, I was inspired by them and this one was no disappointment. While some people may not even look twice at this book I think it is one that most everyone should read. When most people think of a dream they think of something that is unattainable. In this book Maxwell relates that not all dreams need to be huge, they just need to be something you are passionate about.

Maxwell's writing style allows anyone to understand the concepts he is trying to convey. He uses stories of people who have obtained their dreams and correlates those stories to each step of the dream process.

While reading this book I made many mental notes and have started using some of the processes that he mentions. One big thing that Maxwell points out is that if you are passionate about your dream, and you're pursuing a dream for the right reasons it can be achieved, you just need to realize it.

Overall a good read, it was both inspirational and motivating! It's never too late to achieve your dreams! ( )

I have said before that I have a love-hate relationship with John Maxwell. I have benefitted greatly from his tape clubs, his seminars and his books. And yet I think he, more than probably any other, bears the blame for the “corporatizing” of the American church. He is a corporate/business expert, but has tried to form the church into that business image.

And yet it was with high hopes that I began Put Your Dream to the Test, one of Maxwell’s most recent books. And I wasn’t disappointed. Visioning and following through on a vision have never been strong suits in my life or ministry. And yet I am at a phase of life where I realize that reviewing the principles re: visioning and working toward a vision are important.

Maxwell outlines the book in a series of 10 Questions with three sub-questions under each one related to evaluating a vision and one’s readiness to

* The Ownership Question: Is My Dream Really My Dream?
* The Clarity Question: Do I Clearly See My Dream?
* The Reality Question: Am I Depending on Factors within My Control to Achieve My Dream?
* The Passion Question: Does My Dream Compel Me to Follow It?
* The Pathway Question: Do I Have a Strategy to Reach My Dream?
* The People Question: Have I Included the People I Need to Realize My Dream?
* The Cost Question: Am I Willing to Pay the Price for My Dream?
* The Tenacity Question: Am I Moving Closer to My Dream?
* The Fulfillment Question: Does Working Toward My Dream Bring Satisfaction?
* The Significance Question: Does My Dream Benefit Others?

There is not a lot of new stuff here, (as with most Maxwell books…by his own admission), but it is collected in a helpful manner. It is Maxwell’s typical blend of inspirational stories and pithy maxims.

One of my favorites:

I will do more than belong. I will participate.

I will do more than care. I will help.

I will do more than believe. I will practice.

I will do more than be fair. I will be kind.

I will do more than forgive. I will forget.

I will do more than dream. I will work.

I will do more than teach. I will inspire.

I will do more than earn. I will enrich.

I will do more than give. I will serve.

I will do more than live. I will grow.

I will do more than suffer. I will triumph.

- William Arthur Ward

As clichéd as Maxwell stuff can be, I still found this to be an inspirational read. It is a book I will keep and refer back to for needed inspiration in the future.
