5.0 out of 5 stars You don't have to believe it; you just have to work it., February 15, 2006

By	Blair Warren (San Antonio, TX USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Professional Dreamer is going to be a hit with those who are already open to the notion that we create our own realities. That's a given. But there's another group of people who stand to benefit greatly as well. I'm talking about skeptics. Yes, skeptics. I know, because I'm one of them.

Truth is, not too long ago I would have laughed at the ideas in this book. I'd have written them off as "New Age Nonsense" and felt smug and justified in doing so. In fact, I loved nothing more than to think of myself as one of the few "wise ones" who could see through the smoke that "fooled" almost everyone else. It turns out, I was the real fool. Rather than helping me in life, my skepticism slowly but surely cut me off from any sense of wonder and possibility. I became, frankly, an arrogant but miserable jerk.

But I was lucky. Despite my commitment to criticize all that failed to fit my own sense of reality, a thought eventually popped into my head that changed everything. The thought was this:

"If we can only accept what we currently believe, we have already reached our full potential."

This thought literally pulled my life out of the grips of skepticism and made it possible for me to entertain ideas I would have otherwise dismissed out of hand. Ideas that are full of promise, power and hope. Ideas that can make us greater than we are and more powerful than we might imagine ourselves to be. Ideas like those in Professional Dreamer.

Again, "believers" will embrace these ideas without hesitation; skeptics will need to be convinced. Ironically, skeptics may stand to benefit the most from this book - if they'll give it a fair shot. And that's my purpose here, to encourage them to do just that.

So if you're a skeptic and at all hesitant about this book, let me give you a few reasons why you might want to reconsider:

First, this book is all about taking full responsibility for your life. This is not a book about how to get others to change so that your life will improve. Professional Dreamer places the responsibility for your life right where it belongs: in *your* lap. I don't know a skeptic alive that would disagree with the notion that in order to improve your life, you must take responsibility for your life.

Second, as ironic as it may sound given its title, this book is surprisingly practical. Unlike books that paint beautiful pictures of "what might be" but fail to fill in the fine details like, how to actually make it happen, Professional Dreamer delivers the goods. Despite the depth of its ideas, virtually every page contains a step, or series of steps, explaining exactly how to put these ideas into practice.

And finally, and perhaps most importantly for skeptics, the ideas in Professional Dreamer don't require that you "believe them first" in order for them to work. They only require that you "work them" for them to work. So if you're like me and have trouble accepting ideas that don't automatically fit your sense of reality, relax. You don't have to accept them. Feel free to disbelieve all you want to, but if you'll just give these ideas a fair shot, I think you'll be amazed at what they can help you achieve.

Now, I started out by saying that I was a skeptic, and despite my enthusiasm for this book, I remain one. But thanks to ideas such as those in Professional Dreamer, I am a different kind of skeptic these days. I no longer have to believe every idea before I can implement and profit from it. I am willing to experiment, to take risks. And as a result, I've discovered that while skepticism can be healthy, too much skepticism can be deadly. Deadly to one's spirit, to one's sense of well-being and to one's dreams.

So if you're a skeptic-by-nature but are willing to stretch your sense of what's possible, I can't think of a better book to start with - or end with, for that matter - than Ghalil's Professional Dreamer.

Again, you believers out there are probably nodding your heads. But if you're more of a skeptic like me, just remember what I said earlier:

"If we can only accept what we currently believe, we have already reached our full potential."

And despite how far I've already come, I know I have much more that I hope to accomplish. How about you? Care to create the future? Your blueprint is here.

P.S. Ghalil, if you read this, I hope you're already working on your next book because I'm already waiting for it.

Note added March 10, 2007:

I wrote my review of Professional Dreamer over a year ago. And since then, for a variety of reasons, I have taken a very hard position against the movie The Secret and certain aspects of the Law of Attraction.

Though I have written extensively about my issues with these ideas elsewhere, I want to make it very clear here on Amazon that I still believe Ghalil's book is one of the best of the bunch.

While I would no doubt write a very different review today, I would - and do - still recommend her book for anyone with a sincere interest in, and an open mind about, these ideas.

5.0 out of 5 stars I hate to admit it - THIS IS A GREAT BOOK!, July 7, 2006

By	Bustani "customer "A"" (ALPHARETTA, GA United States) - See all my reviews

I have to admit that I did not want to like this book. I had decided to stop feeding my "you create your reality" addiction and was tired of "you create your reality" gurus. I was on the mailing list of a self-improvement author who was part of the joint venture marketing campaign for this book and I thought "Here we go again...". I decided to wait until the price went down - but could not get the book out of my mind. I finally broke down and purchased it - fully expecting to return it if it turned out to be another rehash or book length sales letter. All I can say is - GET THIS BOOK! The author offers the same metaphysical principles as other authors in this genre, BUT she describes WHY and HOW these principles work and gives specific, simple methods. Her use of metaphors is unique and her examples make some time honored self-improvement methods crystal clear. One of my personal favorites is her metaphor on negative thought forms. She asks, "If you had bits of garbage laying around your house in little clumps, would you just leave them there?" If you have read it all - GET THIS BOOK. If you are new to manifesting - GET THIS BOOK.

5.0 out of 5 stars It actually works!, January 9, 2006

By	Kris Carter (Edmonton, Alberta, CAN) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have read a lot of books that touch on these sames topics. Some are too spiritual (for me) and most are too vague. Professional Dreamer however, is perfectly written. It explains exactly what to do. And it works!! My life has taken a complete 180 degree turn. I have created a job I love and now I know that I can create anything that I want in my life!! Thank you Ghalil for writing this book!
