Today’s the Day:
Practical Wisdom to Live an Extraordinary Life
This is the second in a series of episodes based on my recent personal growth book, Today’s the Day.
In this episode, we cover the following topics:
Worry, Procrastination, Never Enough, Someday I’ll.
The Download:
After completing the audiobook of Ten Seconds of Boldness, I woke up one morning and had what I call a God shot. The download was this book.
I knew in my heart of hearts that I needed to take everything I’d learned and written about over the past 14 years and put it into a simple, easy to read book that anyone can read anywhere, anytime, for a little inspiration, encouragement and motivation.
I started where we all do, at the beginning. One morning I brainstormed the key ideas and concepts I have been practicing for decades with respect to goal setting, productivity, self-talk, affirmation and creative visualization, and wrote down all I could in about an hour. From there the story and this book wrote itself.
Because life is like that — when we stop trying to find all the answers to living a life of meaning and purpose elsewhere, and take a moment to sit with what we already know, we are usually amazed at how much we already have and how much we already know.
The problem is we don’t believe it. We don’t, because 85% of us suffer from some form of low self-esteem, and according to many studies, 90-95% of the things we think and believe about ourselves are negative and false.
This book is your pocket muse, here to encourage you to become more self-aware.
More importantly, it’s here to help you use the concept and process I uncovered in Ten Seconds of Boldness to reclaim control of your own destiny — by practicing Ten Seconds of Boldness whenever you feel anxious or afraid, or start overthinking or second-guessing what you think you can or cannot do.
For my spiritual friends, this book is a download from my higher power through me that flowed so easily it was as if I was simply the messenger of what God wanted to say through me.
I hope it reaches into the dark recesses of your own broken beliefs and sheds some light and encouragement into your dusty dreams that you’ve had locked inside for far too long.
This book and the podcasts that follow are my teaching, coaching and consulting philosophy distilled into one small but incredibly impactful book.
I hope you find yourself in the pages and recordings that follow.
