This is an incredible, inspiring true story of a young man's dream and stubborn courage.

Nicholas Isika left Kenya as a teenager and arrived in the United States with only forty-five dollars in his pocket, but he earned an education at Augustana Academy in Canton, South Dakota. Even then, it was never a given that he would build a career in finance and a successful international business.

Much of his success can be traced back to the wisdom instilled in him by his parents, who always told him, "The mind that won't quit through hard times and refuses to sit and wait, but applies action instead, is the mind that will succeed."

You'll be inspired by Nick's journey from farming in Kenya to playing an important role in high-stakes business in his adopted country. His perseverance, family values, and intelligence allowed him to learn tremendous lessons while traveling down "Rivers of Courage and Doubt.

Do you dream? I don't mean gaze into the stars and wonder what you'll be when you grow up dream. I mean pajama wearing, night lite having, teddy bear holding dream. Are they recurring dreams or are they the one and done kind? Can you remember your dreams after you wake up or do they totally escape you? Maybe you're riding on a bus or on a train right now or just trying to pass the time away on a flight. I've found these dreams to be interesting as well as funny and some just plain unusual. Some will make you go WHAT and some will make you go HUH? Which ever one it is, enjoy this reading.

This book could not have been written had the author not been keeping a journal of significant dreams he had had since January 10, 1975. He never took his dreams more seriously until he watched The Oprah Winfrey Show of July 3, 2000. On that show, she discussed the importance of keeping gratitude journal with members of her audience. The show made him think about his dream journal. Thank you, Oprah. Many people have asked whether this book is about dream interpretation or dream analysis. This is because when people walk into a bookstore looking for a book on dreams, most of the time they are looking for a book that will provide some insights into a dream they had last night. This book is neither about interpreting nor analyzing dreams. This book is written to raise awareness and validate those experiences which are labeled as weird, strange, crazy, sick, abnormal, etc., when we try to share them. These experiences include intuition, out-of-body experiences (OBE) or astral traveling, precognitive dreams, telepathy, clairaudience etc. If a lot of people are asking the same questions over and over again, then it is time to conclude that Writing Down Your Dreams is: * unique and different. * has the answers you may be looking for. * provides insights from a perspective you might not have considered. If it has a unique and a different message, it is capable of changing lives. My dreams changed my life. Could your dreams also change yours?
