EXTRA! EXTRA! READ ALL ABOUT IT ...

In 2023 I got a message that said, 'would you like to be part of a book I'm doing. I had this idea and I think it would be brilliant for the community'. The person who sent the message was none other than @lee tunney ware, and the community is ECI.

*********

I was game right from the get-to because I love writing, because Lee does super things, because the community is superb, because 'the vibes were immaculate', and because the idea of the book was what I love the most. Real stories, the truth of people's matter, shared with the world to connect and make a different. This book is impact making stuff. It's legacy leaving stuff, and those are my vibes all day long.

*********

Not to mention its collaborative, and I do love a good collab. When like minds come together to work on something with a higher vision, I am IN!

*********

The idea was put to the community and a group of them, 22 to be exact, said YES! They jumped in and the stories began to weave.

*********

So many things happened inside this experience. Learnings that would not have been possible without it, and I am grateful for all of them. I learned patience in my awareness of where others are on their journey. I learned that what I expect and what happens are two entirely different things sometimes. I learned that more often than not, the age old notion that entrepreneurs can not and will not follow instruction is pretty much gospel, which also led to me having to learn greater patience. ;) I learned that group dynamics is a hilarious mash up of personalities and considerations, awareness and uplevelling, and it was worth every second of it because I have come out the other side with a new level of awareness about myself as well as everyone else.

*********

I also learned just how easy it is for brilliant people to forget they are brilliant even after they have written chapters like these people have. When you read their stories you will see what I mean. There are so many qualities running through these stories, the buzz words of today, were and are the life actions of each one of these entrepreneurs for life. Resilience, determination, drive, commitment, bounce-back-ability, never giving up, the ability to pivot, genius decision making, quick on-the-go thinking, smarts, never shying away from learning new things, never taking no for an answer, not following the herd, or the rules. These people came through more trials and tribulations than you could shake a stick at, and they are still standing. In fact, they are thriving.

*********

We often measure success by the amount of money we have in our bank accounts, or the status symbols we can show off because of that money, but ... we forget that success is not only measured in money ... it is and should be measured in life time accomplishments. I wrote a post for all the co-authors in our community group, after reading their chapters for the 6th time before hitting publish on this book, and I told them I would no longer be listening to any of them ever doubt themselves again because ... their chapters do not allow for doubt. There is nothing in any of these chapters that you will read and go ... yeah ... I get why he or she would doubt themselves. NOTHING! But that is often the way with us as humans, when we forget what it has taken in our lives to get us from 'there' to here!

*********

And we do forget. We have so much happening in our present that we forget what it took in our past to get us to the future we are in right now! But ... that all gets to stop for these 22 co-authors, and for you reading this, right now. What got you here will absolutely get you where you want to go if you remember who you had to be in order to get you here. Who you are right now is enough ... in fact ... more than enough ... to make your dreams come true, to have the life you want, to turn your ideas into reality, and to make a difference. You don't need to 'become' anyone else. You are enough.

*********

These 22 co-authors are more than enough. They are epic. They have done amazing things, and they will continue to do amazing things, and if you get the opportunity to talk to, meet with, or work with any of them, you can automatically consider yourself a success.

*********

We are having a couple of incredible events today to celebrate this masterpiece, so you can meet with the authors, find out how it all came to be, hear about the story behind the stories, and cheer with us as we go live with a book that has been worth every minute we put into it.
