Dare To Dream is about exploring how amazing and fulfilling life can be, if only we would dare to dream – for how can you follow your dreams if you don’t dream in the first place?
It is a book which explores the concepts and really brings them to life through sharing the experiences of 17 diverse people from around the globe who dared to dream. Each author shares their own experiences – the highs, the lows, the obstacles, and the eventual triumphs, in a way which seeks both to inspire us as to what it possible, and to motivate us to keep going and to achieve it.
By reading them all, the book becomes greater than the sum of its parts, as the various experiences and lessons resonate across chapters, reinforcing in surprising ways, and build within the reader the desire, the will, the commitment to Dare To Dream.
“Dare to Dream offers a collection of beautiful stories and powerful perspectives from a variety of authors. It shows us how the human spirit can shine through a myriad of challenges and how we each can develop the courage to live our dreams.”
– Marci Shimoff- #1 NY Times bestselling author of “Happy for No Reason”, and “Chicken Soup for the Woman’s Soul”.

For years, decades even by now, I have lived and advocated a simple yet very difficult philosophy: life is too short to be miserable at work, so find a job you enjoy. In Dare To Dream, this philosophy is given life in myriad ways by people from so many walks of life. And it doesn’t just apply to your job, but to your whole life. This volume will provide you with encouragement, self-reflection, determination, and perhaps most of all, hope, no matter where you are in life.
