READ HERE FOR MORE INFO ON THIS SPECIAL COACHING OFFER
The month of joy is here (literally)! :-)
Stop hiding behind a screen of respectability and hoping you won’t get let go from your job.
This is an offer to work with me. I do an email for an offer to work with me DIRECTLY (one on one) every once in while.
Not a course, not a recording, not some AI-generated shit. The real deal - ME. LOL.
I’ve *only* coached 2000+ people over the last decade.
CEOs, founders, Fortune 500 execs, mid-career people in finance and healthcare and pretty much every other major industry.
No shepherds (at least yet). Haha!
If you don't know who I am or how I can help...this email isn't for you. This is for people who already know stuff.
LOOK, LIFE FLIES BY WHEN YOU’RE JUST GETTING THROUGH EACH DAY AND COLLECTING A PAYCHECK, HOPING FOR THE BEST.
You can keep going until you get let go, or… plan like an adult… and ACT!
2023 is over already. I mean it. 2023 is a product of your 2022.
What you do THIS YEAR will DIRECTLY impact your 2024 and 2025 life.
Still not too late to change your 2023 though. Do you really have a choice?
Note: (Offer open to first 5 people to pay at my discretion. Ends Monday Night, FEB 26, 2023 USA, 11:59, PST.)
In 2023...Let's do the right stuff that you actually?want to do. Life’s too short… and they you’re gone.
YELLO?! Think about that a hot minute. Look back at your life and that god ‘ol "work to retire” mentality. Will you make it or burn out first? You already know the f-ing answer. Why fool yourself?
Ain’t no luck for life to work this way!!
The more you stand back in fear of looking stupid…
The more you actually end up looking stupid!
You hold on for dear life to some old and irrelevant ideas about life and work, punch the clock, put on blinders, kiss your boss’s ass, work like a dog, miss quality time with your spouse and kids.
Then, one day, someone else gets promoted, someone else gets paid more, someone else makes partner, someone else takes your lunch.
And you’re left holding the bag of shit in your hand.
Sound familiar?
Well, all of that avoidance of looking stupid suddenly has you looking like… an utter fool.
Harsh, but true.
So you know what? Maybe it’s time to do something “stupid”!
Like, I don’t know, start a side business, learn some new skills, create alignment in your life, refuse to waste any more time with stupid, craven people who “tolerate” you instread of celebrating you, who stab you in the back, throw you out.
It’s not their fault - they’re all victims, themselves.
But not YOU, not any longer.
Forget trying to predict the future. Forget fear-mongering. Forget pretending like you’re prepared for life in the wild blue yonder (HINT: you’re not)
WHILE YOU WERE PREPARING FOR ONE THING, THE WORLD HAS COMPLETELY MOVED IN A DIFFERENT DIRECTION..
without giving two bits about your accomplishments and preparations.
What to do now?
Get some new things moving, cooking, mixing. NOW.
Forget the overall economy. How about YOUR OWN?
What are you selling?
When was the last time you made a dime outside of your day job?
If you were out on your ass tomorrow, what would you do to prepare your family and yourself?
Yep, I thought so. No clue, most likely.
Things just got real,?real fast.
Ain’t no way to make money unless you ask people to pay you for something of value. Right?
Chew on that a second, amigo…

In the last couple of years, I’ve been teaching dozens of people with day jobs to start successful side hustles and grow them.
’But I digress...
Look, I love working 1-on-1, but my consulting and advising projects move fast and I have limited bandwidth. Those that take action and work with me, get results.
I mean truly massive breakthroughs, cutting out the junk, finding their superpower and acting to LEVERAGE it like crazy.
I LOVE meeting new people, making connections for my friends and clients. It’s my joy and lifeblood. If you come into my life, I will treat you likely royalty.
You can google “Yuri Kruman” or “Your Own Commander-in-Chief” to find my books, this newsletter, my podcast and my latest articles for Fast Company, Entrepreneur, Forbes, you name it.
I’ve worked with huge, medium, small enterprises, startups, non-profits, you name it. They all have wildly different needs and demands from their workers.
Most of my clients are mid-career professionals, entrepreneurs trying to move from a job they are good at but feel stuck to a life of freedom where what they do grows and underwrites their dream. They’re managing directors in finance, partners in large law firms, startup CEOs.
Kirkus says about my book, “Be Your Own Commander-in-Chief”:
…it’s a tribute to the author’s discipline as a writer that all those various sections—insights, personal stories, procedural elaborations—deliver an equal combination of humor and approachability. And a great deal of what he relates in these pages, although familiar, is worth repeating—basic precepts about physical and mental health and well-being that will benefit readers to remember.”
You can see some of the press I’ve been in…here are a few favorites from?Fast Company, Entrepreneur, Forbes?and?Inc..?More info and media links here .
Sorry / Not Sorry / Super Grateful and Excited?I just shared all that. Some people need to know some stuff before making decision. Others don't because they've been with me for a while. Being generous with the praise you've earned is a win for everyone. Don't intentionally drop the ball. When you receive...the giver wants you to run with it and win. Ever met an ungrateful person...or given a gift that was never unwrapped or left unused? Exactly. (Share the love you've been gifted!)
After a life filled with a lot of trauma and many, many blessings, I've learned this important life lesson:
If you don’t ask for things in life, the answer’s always no.
Here are things my clients have said. These are also close friends, really family. That’s how things work when you’re so well aligned with people you work with :) These are people I’ve written about in my books and newsletter, people I’ve included in my articles in top publications. These are some of the dearest people in my life.
Let’s be clear here. I can’t legally promise you mountains of gold or anything, or any specific dollar amount. The results are there and quite, quite good. Lots of evidence and testimonials out there in the interwebs.
Here are some recent examples.
Just one question for you: When are you going to actually move and take action?
Hi Yuri! I just wanted to let you know that I started my first job this week... [as an] Associate Product Manager in the Research & Development department of C+A Global... I wanted to thank you for the guidance and help you gave me in the first stages of my career.
With appreciation and gratitude, - Shlomo P.
After an unexpected extended career break, I accidentally, luckily found Yuri. My confidence was at a low point, while I generally knew what to do, I was going about it in the wrong way — I was using GenX tactics in a millennial world. Yuri showed me how to leverage and reframe all the great work I had done to network with others and find what I really wanted to do. Together we rebranded me. We updated my profile on LinkedIn; I wrote articles for major online publications, went to industry events and grew my LinkedIn connections (almost 10X), talking to too many great people to count … In the end, it led to what at this moment is my ideal job. — Andrea M.
Today I happened to find the voice recorder I used for our very first conversation. I was at rock bottom at that point and between reaching out to you and a therapist that was all I could do to try and keep from drowning. It was interesting to listen to that conversation remembering very clearly how I felt back then and realizing how far I have come.
…I have conquered two decades of on and off anxiousness which has changed me on so many levels. I am doing things that I wouldn’t use to do like going out to lunch by myself in Chicago and flying on an airplane which has been a huge win…?
What a year of change this is been… Thanks for sticking with me… Your help has been very valuable to me and I expect more clarity to come as I keep moving forward. - Aaron R.
"Yuri was great. Very responsive and thorough. He wanted to know about my interests outside of work and helped me think about tying everything together to make a career, not just a job. He also helped me understand how aspects of my current job translate to other industries and careers."?- Stacy
"Yuri's coaching was helpful beyond measure and finally allowed me to walk into an interview with confidence. Prior to our discussion, I was always nervous and never felt adequately prepared, and Yuri gave me some great strategies and candid feedback that took away a lot of my interview anxiety.?
Not only that, I had an interview coming up on short notice, and Yuri was very flexible with his schedule so that I could be prepared. With his help, I received a great job offer and can finally put the job-search behind me."?- Matthew D.
__________________________________________________
"Working with Yuri was an absolute pleasure and incredibly enlightening.?As someone who has worked in the freelance world for quite some time, I rarely had the opportunity to discuss and negotiate my salary with a prospective employer.?
Yuri was able to walk me through the salary negotiation process, coaching me through what the phone call would sound like, rehearsing different situations, and even helped me think of creative ways to negotiate my salary and ask for other perks as well which I never had even thought of!?
As a result, I managed to improve the original offer from my dream company by $7,500 in a 10-minute chat. I took the revised offer and am thrilled in my new job! I’d highly recommend his services to anyone finalizing a job offer or working to negotiate a review. - Daniel Z.
Note: (Offer ends Sunday Night, FEB 26, 2023 USA, 11:59, PST.)
First 5 lucky people at my discretion. One on one! Ready, set, go.
No one is more productive than a procrastinator with an impending deadline.
Here's to your next best 10 years. Breakout success and blessings in all parts of your life! Now, this is just for those who are serious about a real, meaningful and impactful life. :-)
Most people will passively do exactly what they did last year.
Whatever you do, don’t let that person be you.
Custom offer. If you missed this the last time I ran it, sorry for you… it was glorious for those who took it. Here it is again today. I love this stuff. Many of my life-long friends came through this fun coaching process. Y’all know who you are :)
LET’S F-ING GO! (Offer ends Sunday Night, FEB 26, 2023 USA, 11:59 PM, PST.)
Ready, set....GO here .
Let's make your life “the real deal,”
Yuri
P.S. This is a special offer to work with me personally. No promises of income or future are made here. Excited to work with you! Yes, this is purposely a but vague. That's part of the joy. We’ll figure it out together :-)
You should already know the value of this offer if you're on my list and have read my books or articles, etc. If not (you're new), here’s a?bit more about me . Here is a recent?Forbes ?profile on some of my work. I can't promise you a crystal ball, billions of dollars or guaranteed income, but I can promise you that your life is gonna change in the future for better or worse. I actually give a damn. My goal is to help you set up for an insane 2023-2033. This is custom based on your needs.
And mad fun for me :) Chances come and go, but if you do nothing about them...well, you know what happens (nothing good).
Hope this helps you move your behind and create some massive (positive) impact. :-) If you've missed something like this before, your opportunity cost just keeps on climbing... If you’re serious,?let's go !
If you don't have the dough right now to work with me, buy?“Be Your Own Commander-in-Chief” ?the book for some of my best writing and wisdom.
Yep, you.
