As I write this I’m sitting at a table in the corner of the Starbucks down the street from the place I’m staying right now. To the left of me are two people–a guy and a girl–sitting with their Teavana drinks and talking about work stuff. They clearly work in an office and are likely […]
A lot of the times in life and business, we tell ourselves that our intuition doesn’t matter. We feel something but we ignore it because we’re told that’s not the way to do things. We listen to the opinions of others and trust what they say more than trusting how we really feel about something. […]
One of the things I love, love, love to do is watch movies and deconstruct them. (If you’re not familiar with that term, it just means breaking down the story and figuring out the structure and character arc, etc.) I do this pretty much every night of my life. There may be a few days […]
A little over a year ago, I became a best selling author on Amazon. I sold 1,007 books in 30 days and hit #1 in the Authorship category. And when I looked back at what, specifically, I did to make it happen, I was surprised (but not all that surprised) to find out it was […]
Let me ask you something… when was the last time you tried something new? I’m talking out of your comfort zone, feeling a little anxious and scared and yet excited as hell to give it a shot. Something that you’ve wanted to do, but haven’t allowed yourself to do yet. When was the last time? […]
This may make me unpopular, but it has to be said… I believe in procrastinating. I believe in waiting ’til the last minute to do things. I used to fight it and tell myself that I shouldn’t be that way. I tried to change it. Tried to fix myself and change my ways and do […]
I have to admit, I’m a bit of a “bottler.” I tend to bottle up how I’m feeling about something until it pushes me to the point that I explode. Maybe you can relate? But I really hope you can’t, because that is no way to live your life. And truth be told, walking around […]
You know how sometimes time feels like it goes SO SLOWLY?! Like when you’re at your day job and hating life and all you can think about is getting home and finally having free time to work on your writing. Or when a really, really bad song comes on the radio, but you can’t change […]
It’s been four days since I’ve written to you. I spent the last four days not doing anything–partially because of Resistance (damn you, Resistance!) but also because everyone is always saying that I need to “take a break” or “take some time off.” Because that’s what normal people do. So I did. I gave it […]
So last night I was checking in on my income for the month and I discovered that I’m only $338 away from my goal of making $10k CASH!!!! And I have ZERO doubt in my mind that I will receive the rest of it. It’s DONE. This is a goal I’ve had since December 2014, […]
