So what is my dream?

The name of this blog is making a dream. What is my dream? My dream is:

To be able to create art full time and still provide for my family in a manner they are accustomed to living.

How do I plan to do that?

I have had several ideas but right now it is to Build a few businesses that don't need me to run them.

This is a new idea for me.

About 10 months ago I started listening to some books on these topics here is the list:

• Rich Dad Poor Dad- Robert Kiyosaki
• How to get Started in Real Estate Investing - Robert Irwin
• Rich Dad's Advisors the ABCs of Real Estate Investing - Ken McElroy
• The Richest Man in Babylon - George S. Classon
• Creating Customer Evangelists - Ben McConnel & Jackie Huba
• Selling the Proud Profession - Zig Ziglar
• The Ultimate Sales Success : Motivation from top Success Coaches
• The New Buffetology - Mary Buffett
• The Millionaire next door - Thomas J. Stanley and
• The Millionaire Mind - Thomas J. Stanley
• Secrets of the Millionaire Mind - T.Harv Eker
• the Magic of Thinking Big - David Schwartz
• The E-Myth Revisited - Michael Gerber
• The Four-Hour Work Week - Tim Ferris
• Small is the New Big - Seth Godin
• Getting Things Done - David Allen
• Real Estate Investor's College - Dolf De Roos (12 CDs)
• Choose to be Rich - Robert Kiyosaki (13 CDs)

So those are some of my influences. Many of these books I have read more than twice in the past 10 months. Really. It is all due to the wonder of the iPod and having a 45 minute to an hour commute each way each day. You can listen to a lot of books in that time.

I have learned a lot and I will share what I can. Plus my own insights
Peace
