What's Your Dream? Book Review: In a recent video, I give my uncensored thoughts on Simon Squibb’s latest book, ‘What’s Your Dream?’. As a multimillionaire property investor and trainer, there is so much I disagree with in the book! I believe this book could not only mislead, but be downright dangerous for aspiring entrepreneurs!
If you want to see a full breakdown of everything that is wrong with ‘What’s Your Dream?’, please watch the full video at the top of this page until the end. You can also view the video on my YouTube channel. If you watch the video on YouTube, please drop me a comment telling me what you think of Simon Squibb’s business advice!
My first disagreement with Simon Squibb was when he called property investment a scam. But I decided to give his book on business a try. While he might not understand property, I thought, he might still have good business advice. After all, Simon presents himself as a very successful entrepreneur. But what I found was shocking!
Simons book is full of terrible advice for new entrepreneurs, in my opinion. In the video, I do a full ‘What's Your Dream?' book review and explain exactly why I would never encourage people to take his advice. In this article, I will respond to 3 points from ‘What’s Your Dream?’. By the end of the article, you will be able to decide for yourself whether you agree with me or Simon!
There are many people that could be misled by Simon Squibb’s book. That’s why I really want to get this ‘What's Your Dream?' book review to as many people as possible. But I need your help to do it! Please would you consider sharing this article on your social media pages? That way, more people can access information that can actually help them start a profitable business!
1. What's Your Dream? Book Review: Money Doesn’t Make You Happy… Says The Rich Guy!
One of the first things Simon talks about is how possessions and material things don’t buy you happiness. He has also spoken in a video about how he doesn’t enjoy being rich. Personally, I hate when people with a lot of money do this!
If Simon doesn’t like being rich, he can simply give all his money away! While it is true that you can’t buy happiness, you can buy freedom and have more options with money. If you use your money correctly, it certainly can increase your happiness and the happiness of others!
2. What's Your Dream? Book Review: Following Your Passion… Into Poverty!
Simon claims that you should follow your passion, rather than what makes money. As a business person myself, I know that not all passions can make money.
For example, I started a Christian business training network. I started it because I am passionate about helping people do business within a Christian moral framework. However, I lost money doing it. Luckily, it didn’t matter because I made money from property! I could focus on my passion because I knew how to make money elsewhere!
My advice is to follow the money when starting a business. Then, when you have some money, you will have the freedom to follow your passion and not worry about whether it will be profitable.
3. What's Your Dream? Book Review: Quit Your Job Immediately… Risk Ending Up With Nothing!
Something I really disagree with Simon on is the idea you should quit your job before starting your business. I think it is far better to start your business while you still have a job. Then, when you are making as much money from your part-time business as your full-time job, you can quit!
Leaving your job without any proof that the market wants what you will be offering is irresponsible. Keep your job while you are perfecting your offering, quit when you start seeing demand from the market. Lots of my students have done this, and they are very successful!
What's Your Dream? Book Review: Follow The Money!
So now that I have presented my ‘What's Your Dream?' book review, what is my advice for prospective entrepreneurs? Follow the money!
