🤫 Stop Setting Goals That Die (Powerful Secret Inside)

Reading time: 2 minutes to transform your approach to achievement Before 2025 started (well, before December 2024 started), I set some pretty audacious goals for this year, and things were going along pretty great until several weeks ago when I noticed swelling in the ball of my right foot. My physical and training goals came to a halt, and even today, I can't quite walk on the bare floor without wearing a thick sock or a slipper. Whomp whomp. Maybe you know the feeling of setting a big...

Reading time: 2 minutes to potential breakthrough I Made a Promise Yesterday I mentioned watching out for something transformational, and I wasn’t being dramatic (although that is a tactic I employ from time-to-time). I was being strategic. What I’ve observed after working with thousands of high-performers is the difference between those who talk about building empires and those who build them isn’t talent, connections, or even luck. It’s a framework that creates inevitable results. I...

Reading time: 2 inspirational minutes Is Q2 Your Transformation Quarter? As we step into the second quarter of 2025, I wanted to share something powerful with you: a framework that has changed not just my life, but the lives of countless clients who were ready to stop making excuses and start seeing results. I'm sure you remember the last time you set a major goal and somehow "life got in the way." (I sure do!) Maybe it was a business target, a relationship milestone, or a personal health...

Reading time: 3 minutes Is It Time for a Fresh Start? I did my first quarter review over the weekend and while it wasn't everything I was dreaming about on New Year's Eve, I'm happy to report I made some great progress on some of my goals. Others, not so much. Tomorrow I'll show you what caused my physical training to go into overdrive (and put me on the couch with an elevated foot for a few weeks). 🙄 Believe me, you'll know it when you see it. Tony Robbins said, "When we're successful, we...

📝Reading time: 1 minute, 12 seconds It's the last day of March, the last day of Q1, and almost April Fool's Day. I hope you've had a magnificent month and a great quarter! As an aside, do you play April Fools' Day jokes on people? As long as it's good, clean fun, I'm here for it. Give me some ideas! Okay, now let's talk about what authors want almost as much as they want book sales: Book reviews. One key piece of my life-long philosophy is: If you want (more of) something, give it away. About...

...(and it's killing sales)! 💰Reading time: 1 minute I'm going to challenge something you might believe... Your book doesn't need to be 300 pages to be valuable or successful. Guess what, author friend! Focusing on writing an overly long book could be what prevents you from having a best earning book. The Bestselling Book Formula is intentionally brief--you can read it in under an hour--because I respect your time and want you to get exactly what you need without an unnecessary fluff. (No one...

...and how to avoid that entirely! 💰Reading time: 1 minute Still celebrating the 2nd Book Birthday to The Bestselling Book Formula over here! 🎉 Am I the only one who sometimes tries to think of a book and can't remember the title or author no matter how hard I try? This happens all the time, and it's costing authors thousands in lost readers (and sales) ... and is completely avoidable. 🤦🏻♀️ In The Bestselling Book Formula, Key #2: Making your book EASY TO REMEMBER is crucial when you're...

💰Reading time: 1 minute Happy 2nd Book Birthday to The Bestselling Book Formula! 🎉 Today marks 2 years since I published The Bestselling Book Formula and I want to clear up the biggest misconception in publishing. Being a "bestseller" isn't what you think it is. In fact, as I explain in the book, there's a massive difference between: A "bestselling" book (that hit #1 in some obscure Amazon category for an hour) where the author never reaps any meaningful financial gain from their book...and A...
