About this listen
REALIZE YOUR CREATIVE DREAMS—STARTING TODAY
Are you good at dreaming about what you’re going to accomplish “someday” but not good at finding the time and getting started? How will you actually make that decision and do it? The answer is this book, which offers proven, practical, and simple ways to turn random minutes throughout your days into pockets of productivity, and dreams into accomplishments.
In addition to presenting his own winning strategies for getting from dreaming to doing, Matthew Dicks offers insights from a wide range of creative people—writers, editors, performers, artists, and even magicians—on how to augment inspiration with motivation. His actionable steps will help you:
- silence negative messages from family, friends, and teachers
- eliminate time-sucking activities (and people)
- be willing to make terrible things
- find supporters here, there, and everywhere
- cultivate optimism in the face of negativity and obstacles
Each strategy is accompanied by amusing and inspiring personal and professional anecdotes and a clear plan of action. Someday Is Today will give you every tool to get started and finish that _________ [fill in the blank].

Story
Since you were old enough to hold a job, you've been hoodwinked to believe that wealth can be created by blindly trusting in the uncontrollable and unpredictable markets: the housing market, the stock market, and the job market. I call this soul-sucking, dream-stealing dogma "The Slowlane" - an impotent financial gamble that dubiously promises wealth in a wheelchair. For those who don't want a lifetime subscription to "settle-for-less", there is an alternative.

Entertaining and actionable
This is a productivity book for artistic/creators. I felt entertained but also inspired. Matthews has have many failures in his life, but told us how he overcame his failure and how he succeeded to accomplish a lot, but also, he tell us how we too can overcome our shortcomings and achieve the dreams that we have procrastinated to do one day.
The time to make our dreams come true is not "someday." it's TODAY.

Excellent Productivity Book for Creatives
This is not your typical productivity book. It’s filled with new and interesting ideas to motivate and inspire creative people to make our dreams become reality. If you have ever wondered how you can find the time and motivation to finally write a book, pick up a paintbrush or start a side hustle THIS is the book to listen to. Also, the book is read by the author and filled with interesting anecdotes about his life. As one of the top storytellers in the world Matthew Dicks knows how to keep a listener engaged. Highly recommend!

Yikes
Storyworthy was great. This is rehashed common advice fighting with the author's huge ego. Do yourself a favor and pass.
