How to knock your competition out of the ring
There's a lot of competition in the online space. It seemed noisy and crowded when I started my coaching business in 2014, but today it's even crazier. Back in the "old days", when I was a young-ish whippersnapper online, you could get away with being less active. I...
A big reason why people don’t email more often
Here's a question that someone asked me yesterday about my Daily Email System: ===== "Do you discuss how to generate content in the program? I’m not sure I can come up with content every day" ===== It's a great question, and he's not the only person to ask it. For a...
Confessions of a workaholic

The day my email was late
I like to email my list at the same time every day. For close to 1000 days, subscribers have seen me arrive in their inboxes at 7:30 am EST. It's been there through rain or shine, and on the rare occasion that I catch some sort of flu bug. It's been there if I've been...
What you can learn from a show about nothing
Last night I got out to see Jerry Seinfeld, who came to my neck of the woods to do a performance. I used to love watching Seinfeld back in high school and university, and it's one of those shows that I find highly-watchable even 20 years after it went off the air....
