The Dream Enabler Series shares many of the key learnings Matthew Burgess has been fortunate to discover while having unprecedented access to some of Australia’s most successful people.
Inspired by one of his heroes, Dr Seuss, all books have covers colour-coded to help identify the genre.
The Orange Book shares the inspiration that was leveraged to write ‘The Dream Enabler’ (or ‘white book’) and formed the business plan for the founding of law and fintech firm View Legal.
The Black Book is a ‘workbook’. It provides a framework to explore and achieve momentum in relation to each of the key concepts explained in detail in the white book. It is designed to be actively ‘consumed’ by readers – with space deliberately set aside for note taking by the reader.
The White Book is a 60,000 word business book that deeply explores the lessons Matthew has learnt while working for and reading the literature of some of the most successful leaders in our community.
This release, 101 Tips for Staying Young and Foolish, is a further iteration in the Dream Enabler Series. It succinctly captures each of the 101 lessons explored in the Orange Book.
Each lesson is in turn shared with an image; embracing the mantra that a picture tells a 1,000 words.
Like most lawyers, I have had others attach labels to me over the years, including:
(a) the baby faced assassin
(b) the lawyer to get when you don’t want to deal with a lawyer
(c) the ‘www’ (why the wealthy win) guy
The one that has meant the most to me was coined by a small business operator I helped guarantee she survived and ultimately prospered during a difficult start up phase. She called me ‘The Dream Enabler’.
The Dream Enabler Reference Guide (or ‘orange book’) shares the inspiration that was leveraged to write ‘The Dream Enabler’ (or ‘white book’).
The Dream Enabler Workbook (or ‘black book’) is designed to be a companion to ‘The Dream Enabler’ book
(or ‘white book’).
It provides a framework to explore and achieve momentum in relation to each of the key concepts, leveraging the foundations explained in detail in the white book.
The Dream Enabler (or ‘white book’) is a 60,000 word business book that shares many of the key learnings I have been fortunate to discover while having unprecedented access to some of Australia’s most successful people.
Matthew Burgess is certainly ‘the lawyer to get when you don’t want to deal with a lawyer’; yet he’s far more than that - he is an incredibly deep thinker, and a great storyteller. I couldn’t put The Dream Enabler down, because not only do the stories of real people read like a novel, the lessons Matthew imparts in between are profound. If you’re a businessperson - in any field - you will find this book thought-provoking and valuable, and you’ll see why one of Matthew’s customers called him ‘The Dream Enabler’ - Indeed!

I was lucky enough to cross paths with Matthew when looking for an inspirational speaker who could deliver an exciting keynote at the Bentleys Future Leaders conference. Matthew engaged our Future Leaders with energy and enthusiasm to dare to be different and make the change that is necessary for our future business. What fantastic true stories with real life situations. Wonderful tips and simple explanations. If you have always dreamt of it but never done it, read The Dream Enabler!

I have just completed ‘The Dream Enabler’ – the completion is a good sign in itself as I am very good at not finishing books if the large pile on my beside table is any indication. I am amazed that a practising lawyer would write a book on the keys to business success, particularly one that seeks to synthesise so much of the available learning from the authors in this area. There has obviously been an extraordinary amount of reading to have developed a range of remarkable insights into what drives businesses and individuals to succeed. This book is a remarkable and unusual achievement.

I have had the pleasure of reading Matthew’s book, “The Dream Enabler” and thoroughly enjoyed the stories of his experiences and sharing of his professional journey.

Matthew has provided my family and business valuable advice and guidance on structuring and estate planning and remains our go to person for continuing advice and work in these areas.

The Dream Enabler is unlike any other book I’ve read. Most books are ‘linear’ in form; you start here and it’s a gentle journey to the end. This is anything but linear. And that’s precisely what makes it so great. One moment you’re deeply engrossed in a beautifully told story about a High Net Worth person Matthew has worked with and learned from; the next moment you’re ‘transported’ into a wonderful, brilliant almost barrister-like and superbly researched discussion on disrupting professions or on providing amazing service or on building world-class companies or on personal habits or … the list is huge. Again, it’s unlike ANY book I’ve read. And that’s partly what makes it great. Hitherto untold deeply personal ‘inside’ stories topped with caring (and daring) insights. And it’s that ‘caring’ piece that really makes this great. This is not someone ‘preaching’ at you; it’s someone involved in his own search sharing that uniqueness with you. And, just like this book, that’s rare and worth grabbing hold of.
