🎂 10 years later, this still works


Reading Time: <32 seconds

🥳 It's a book birthday! Ten years ago today, the 10th Anniversary of my first book, Tall Order! Organize Your Life and Double Your Success in Half the Time was published.

When I wrote that original Tall Order! (at Mark Victor Hansen's urging), I thought it would be my one and only book.

I legit had zero idea it would become the first of many books (or that I'd get the "book writing fever"), or even that my readers would still be telling me two decades later, "This book changed everything for me." Turns out, the strategies I was using with my coaching clients could work for everyone.

Here's what hasn't changed in the past 20 years: People--maybe you--are still busy. Still overwhelmed. Still wondering how some people seem to accomplish twice as much while working half the hours.

If you've been around awhile, you've heard me say,

"Success isn't a secret, it's a system."

Tall Order! lays out seven master strategies that are an integral part of my personal success system. They range from creating a vision that actually pulls you forward, to the 100-Day Rule that builds unstoppable momentum, to finding mentors who compress decades of learning into days.

Y'all know I don't play in theories or share ideas I've used only once. I only write from experience, sharing my battle-tested tools and strategies. They're the ones I've used (and my clients and readers have used) for (OMG) over 30 years. (Dang, that makes me sound ... experienced.) LOL

If you're heading into 2026 wanting more clarity, more results, and more time for what matters, Tall Order! is a fantastic starting point. You can read it in less than two minutes (including breaks for coffee, snacks, and rude interruptions).

Now, for most people, it'll be a blur of Netflix, leftovers, and "I'll figure it out in January." But you are not most people! You're looking for ways to accelerate your growth and build your empire and you want to use this downtime strategically so 2026 doesn't just happen to you. These are exactly why I wrote Tall Order!

Reading Time: 33.33 seconds 🤩 Thanks for all of the lovely book birthday wishes for Tall Order! Organize Your Life and Double Your Success in Half the Time -- y'all are so cool! I woke up at 2:30 a.m. this morning and wondered, "Is it time to get up yet?" Yes, I'm that person, excited and ready for the day to begin. If you're anything like me (maybe not the 2:30 a.m. part, and to be transparent, I didn't actually get up until 4:30 a.m.), you're always looking for ways to accelerate your...

Reading Time: <18 seconds I know AI and CRMs are all the rage, but I'm more of a visual person. More than 20 years ago I created a tool I still use to this day, the 12x12 Matrix. (Hear me out, sometimes analog and visual works wonders!) It helps me see who is in my network and the next time I need to check in, follow-up, or reach out to them. If you've never heard of it and you want to be a more efficient, effective networker, here's a little of the skinny: You identify 11 complementary...
