Think, Do, Feel, Earn

Original jeff noel masterpiece…

Mid Life Celebration is the balance of life’s big choices – Mind, Body, Spirit, Money. However, this is the 1st time I’m explaining it this way:

Think. Do. Feel. Earn.

Adversity doesn’t develop our character, it reveals it.

Whether you’ve read Malcolm Gladwell’s ‘Tipping Point’ or not, you understand the premise. Those that work harder and longer than the others, excel exponentially.

Shift 4 Things

Shifted the focus to my business partner Saturday night…

A break from the book writing story, because, bottom line, when life throws a curve we need to shift our focus.

  1. Shift what we SAY
  2. Shift what we DO
  3. Shift what we THINK
  4. Shift what we FEEL

At least one, maybe more, of these must shift, to compensate for the challenge.

For me, it is all four.

Every situation, properly perceived, is an opportunity.

Efforts Equal Rewards

When you take risks to do the right things for the right reasons, no one can question your integrity…

Do you find taking risks risky? What about playing it safe? Risky too, eh?

Offering a ghost writer 49% interest in a mega best-selling book is pretty much unheard of. But I liked it for two reasons:

  • Incentivize the Ghost to write their best work
  • It fit a boot strapped budget

    All of this looks good in a dream and with a hand shake.

    The Unconventional Offer

    My young business partner. Suomi means Finland.

    Ever look back and wish you would have been gutsier, more courageous, more creative in not letting a childhood dream fade?

    Our young son is my trusted business partner, and I asked him, “Should Daddy write the first book by himself or with Mr. GW?”

    With Mr. GW.

    Why?

    And Chapin (8 at the time) says, “Because two heads are better than one”.

    The unconventional offer was made at a Starbucks. Me (and Chapin with his kid’s hot chocolate) and “Mr. GW”.

    We go 50/50 on the book. Both names on the cover.

    My vision and story, his organization.
