- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I am in tears as I finish this book.
The final story in the book is deeply, deeply moving.
Throughout this book I have literally laughed out loud, been moved to tears, thought deeply, and have sensed a course correction taking place deep in my spirit.
Bob is self-effacing and vulnerable throughout this book.
Tremendous insights, abundant encouragement, and a down-to-earth style are hallmarks of this book.
Surprisingly, this is my first exposure to Bob Goff’s writings.
It won’t be my last.
I have a short list of books that I have gone through 10, 20, 30 times or more.
I believe this will be one of them.
Do yourself a favor and listen to this NOW!
I am going to listen again as soon as this is posted.
Thanks Bob! And thanks Scribd!2 people found this helpful

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book came to my life at a perfect time! I was doubting my actions towards living a purposeful life but Bob confirmed I am taking the right steps towards living a purposeful life. I have also wanted to start a food bank to help starving families in northern Kenya and I have decided to kick start the planning phase of the project. I hope to share one day how many families we have touched. Be blessed! Thank you for the inspiration Bob! With gratitude. Maggie, Kenya.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5As always Goff challenges us to see a place where change is needed and then act upon it.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I get the message, which is a good one!, but the frequent, long stories and constant Jesus talk are distracting unless you are Christian. I prefer more universal language and practical applications rather than childhood stories.

- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Very sweet book with lots of little lessons. I loved that the book wasn’t so heavy in Christian talk, but how Jesus is in our every day lives. This guy has lived an incredible life! Looking forward to listening to his other books.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Encouraging but heavy on self reliance with a noticeable absence of Christ.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Dream Big: Know What You Want, Why You Want It, and What You Are Going to Do About It by Bob Goff was the most inspiring book I ever listened to! It was incredibly insightful and has changed the way I look at life and has inspired me to continue to pursue my dreams even further! This is a book I would want to listen to again in the future! I can't wait to listen/read his other books!!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book is amazing. It’s full of humor and challenges to be all you were meant to be. It’s even a how too book to achieve the ability to dream big. I would highly encourage the whole world reads this book!
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Very inspiring and thought provoking. Good for motivation, maybe a little liking in implementation.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Another awesome book! Bob Goff never disappoints in his books!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Very well written and read. Loads of wisdom, humility, fun and examples. We'll worth r read for early in life's journey or as a refresher course. Some of the illustrations may be more appropriate for an American and wealthy person. But the principles are rock solid, whoever or whereever.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A perennial favorite. Bob Goff writes with wit, wisdom, and a deep passion for all that life has and can be. He challenges us to love deeper, dream bigger, and dare more audaciously. I keep rereading his books and being encouraged, challenged, and inspired.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5If you are Christian, I would imagine this could be an incredible resource as a way to access some universal beliefs through a Christian lens. If you're not, it can be off-putting, as it is frequently referenced and utilized.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5I listened along while completing the study and wow! Bob has an amazing way of writing and teaching that reached me right where I was and spurred me to go after what I wanted. It was just the just start I needed!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Just so wise and good. Talk to your heart and dream big!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Bob Goff never disappoints. What a phenomenal way to live out his faith. This book really challenges us to pursue our healthy ambitions. Bob gives practical advice on how we can initiate the process to pursue what our hearts long for
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Dreams can be easy to procrastinate or ignore for a number of reasons, but Bob Goff’s new book, Dream Big: Know What You Want, Why You Want It, and What You’re Going to Do About It, challenges that all-too-common way of living. With the accessibility, humor, and positivity I loved about Love Does, Dream Big encourages readers to really think about their dreams and what it would take to pursue them. Of course, Goff shares from his own experience and also offers reflection questions and action ideas to make his overall message entirely practical.I enjoyed reading Dream Big. It was a quick, easy, fun read, but left me with a lot to ponder by the end. I definitely recommend it.I received a complimentary copy of this book and the opportunity to provide an honest review. I was not required to write a positive review, and all the opinions I have expressed are my own.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5I did like this book. I found Mr. Goff's writing and the way he talked to be soothing and easy going. It was like listening to a friend talk. Which made reading this book enjoyable. Although, I do get the points that Bob made were great. I did feel like there were some repetitiveness throughout this book. Which made the book feel that much shorter and this book was already a short book. Yet, the advice that Bob gives and the situations that he gives examples of are relatable. Any reader who reads this book will be able to take away from this book. They can use and apply these tips in their lives.
