DREAMS INTO ACTION
Are you watching your life pass you by?
Going through the motions?
Fearful of realizing your dreams?
Frustrated as you see others fulfill theirs?
Whether you feel as if you’re at the bottom of the barrel with no chance to climb out, or you’re successful but are not improving your game, it’s the motto or renowned director, teacher and painter Milton Katselas, and he shares his proven formula for getting the most out of life in his new book, DREAMS INTO ACTION: Getting What You Want!
(Dove Books, April 1996: $ 19.95).
With a stellar list of successful actors and actresses who have been taught or directed by him, Katselas believes that anyone in any profession-executives, teachers, custodians, nurses, carpenters, mechanics, secretaries – is a potential artist and can become a virtuoso. “Through years of directing, teaching, and writing I have worked with many artist to them bring their dreams and careers to a resolution. But what you do is not as important as how you do it. I’ve seen people wait years for some spiritual motivation to do things for their career. But waiting accomplishes nothing.” Katselas states that the true nature of man is spiritual, and that spirit is the bedrock on which intention and hard work are built. But he is most interested, however, in spirituality that leads to actions that enhance people’s lives.
Katselas’ enthusiastic, no-nonsense approach offers simple, practical, down-to-earth advice to help anyone confront their limitations and convert them into triumphs. He cautions, though, that unless you are truly motivated and willing to work hard, you may only achieve your dreams in your dreams.
By shooting down the “ifs, ands, or buts,” Katselas tosses obstacles and excuses out of the way and describes how to get what you want by taking some essential first steps: develop the specific concept of your dream or career; learn how to make choices that will lead you directly to your goal; break down old systems and habits; get along with others; and avoid “the flinch,” a concept Katselas describes as “the destructiveness of not executing your actions.’ The book also provides exercises at the conclusion of each chapter to help readers put the information into action.
To take a life, your life, and steer it in the direction you would like, toward the career you want and fulfillment of your dreams, is the journey-the only real journey. For those who want to turn their dreams, is the journey-the only real journey. For those who want to turn their dreams into reality, DREAMS INTO ACTION boldly demonstrates that change is possible. Change and the ability to bring about change are what this book is about.
