About the Book- Conference Crushing

Anyone can benefit from better networking skills, and Conference Crushing provides you with 17 highly effective skills you can put to work for building better relationships and growing a wider, stronger network.

Whether you're a student trying to land a job, an entrepreneur trying to grow your business or someone who just needs a wider circle of influential people in their life, Conference Crushing is the tool you need.

This book has three power-packed sections of actions you can take before, during and after each networking event to ensure your success increases exponentially.

The reality is, none of us were ever taught how to succeed at these events. No one sits you down to explain how it works, and you certainly don't learn this in any college course.

In this practical, easy-to-read and action-oriented book, Tyler Wagner explains how you can become more successful and grow your network by attending networking events the correct way.

Jeff Goins from goinswriter.com shares what it takes to not just be a writer or some who put words on the web, but how to be an effective writer.

The reason I invited him on the show is because his writings are extremely effective and have moved me and I study copywriting and blogging etc.  So I thought it would be great and "effective" to have Jeff on the show to share with us how he does it.

Jeff writings are great, but he teaches us the how to's which most great writers don't do.  This was a great interview jam packed with great how to's and wisdom to take your writing and business to the next level.

The In-Between

We’re an “instant gratification” generation, but the trouble is, most change happens gradually.

Most of us spend our lives searching and longing for something more than what’s in front of us.

Whether it’s traveling abroad or chasing cheap (or expensive) thrills, we’re all looking for something to satisfy our restlessness. And, so often, we’re looking in the wrong place.

In The In-Between, Jeff Goins calls us to accept the importance waiting plays in our lives and to embrace the lessons it has to offer.

 

Wrecked  -
Wrecked  is a book about the life we’re afraid to live—one full of radical sacrifice and selfless service. It’s a look at how we discover fulfillment in the least likely of places.

This is a guide to growing up and learning to live in the tension between the next adventure and our daily commitments.

Life isn't always a smooth ride.  At least it hasn't been for me.  We all make mistakes and have things happen that we were not expecting or didn't want to happen.  However, we need to continue to pick ourselves up and keep going.  That's what success looks likes.
Success doesn't go to the person who doesn't fall down; Success goes to the person who won't stay down!
