So this is the blog post where I tell you exactly how to get rich. Now I know with a title like “How to Get Rich”, I’m gonna lose a lot of people right away… but don’t make that mistake of clicking away. Keep reading, this is legit.
Actually, I suppose there are lots of ways to get rich… but I’m going to share with you what I think is the most surefire way to get rich – it’s the path that worked for me. The amazing thing is that, as you’ll see, it’s so darn simple.
Now the reality is that most people won’t get rich… I suppose that’s just the way the world works. I’m not sure why (though I have some…

I just got the chance to interview Peter Diamandis – the Chairman and CEO of the X PRIZE Foundation and co-founder (along with Ray Kurzweil) of the Singularity University… Peter has a new book called “Abundance – The Future Is Better Than You Think” – and it’s an “eyes wide open” look at where we REALLY are, and why we should be so excited about the future.
The reality is that the media loves to talk about how bad things are, but in the last century child mortality has dropped 90%, while life span has doubled. Average per capita income worldwide has tripled. Groceries cost 13 times less than they did in the 1870s. Poverty has declined more in the last 50 years than…

I was just in one of my high-level mastermind/coaching groups yesterday (this is a group I pay a lot of money to be in), and we had a real beatdown. You see, there was a guy who was in a “hotseat”….
If you haven’t ever been through something like that, it’s pretty wild – basically one person presents an idea or problem they have in their business… and then the entire group does a big brainstorm about the idea.
If you have the right people in the group, it usually ends up being like a massive shark “feeding frenzy”. You put 20 or 30 really creative entrepreneurs into a room and then you throw a business problem in front of them… well, that’s like putting…

There were THOUSANDS of questions on my webcast last week… and there was one that got me fired up more than all the others combined. This video is all about that question…

Happy Thanksgiving!
And once more, back to the Gratidude Fountain of Awesomeness – the elixir that fixes pretty much everything that ails you…
I just love Thanksgiving… a day dedicated to Gratitude. One of the things I’ve learned in my life is that the more I can live my life from a place of gratitude for all the gifts I’ve received… well the better my life is. In every way.
Including, not incidentally, my business. Make no mistake – the more gratitude I have, the better my business does.
It makes me more impactful. It attracts better people into my life. It builds my relationships with the people in my life. So many benefits… and so easy to obtain. Which is why I do my…

A few months ago I was sitting at a big conference table with about 20 people… most of whom I’d never met before. It was an impressive group – they were world class experts in a number of fields, including things like neuroscience and psychology. Many of them were New York Times bestselling authors (one guy has sold 10 million books.) All of them ran highly successful businesses.
We did the whole “go around the table and introduce yourself and tell us why you’re here” thing.
Now I don’t know about you, but I sorta hate that type of thing. I’m naturally an introvert… and since my parents raised me to be humble, it’s just never felt natural to brag about myself.
But when it…

I didn’t know that my life was about to change forever. I suppose, in those types of moments, you never do.
I remember the moment like it was yesterday. I was at a one of the mountain parks near my home in Colorado with my two young kids. I brought a picnic lunch, which the kids quickly gobbled up. Now they were happily scrambling around… climbing on some big rocks and playing in the forest.
I was seated at a picnic table. It was a beautiful summer day. The sun was out, but I was in the shade of a pine tree. In my hands I held a slim, hardcover book that I hadn’t started reading yet.
Little did I know when I opened…

So I just got back from a big adventure… I just spent 10 days rowing my raft down the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon.
(And yes, it was my raft… this was a “private” trip with no guides.)
Rowing my raft down the Colorado River in Grand Canyon
Those of you who have been down the Grand Canyon know that it’s a trip of a lifetime… and I’ve been lucky enough to do it six times now. 
You see, rafting and kayaking whitewater rivers is a passion of mine – and I’ve paddled and rowed down all kinds of wildnerness rivers from Arizona to Alaska. But the Grand…

OK, this is without a doubt the craziest post I’ve made on this blog… because I’ve never seen anyone put a THREE HOUR all-content recording on their blog!
This is the deal – a few days ago my good friend Brendon Burchard (that photo below shows Brendon and I at this year’s Super Bowl) interviewed Andy Jenkins and myself on a teleseminar.
The call was all about information marketing – how to create and market your own information products… and it’s from three people who have “been there, done that” … and have sold millions of dollars of their information products. Enjoy!

This morning I made breakfast for my daughter before she went off to school. It wasn’t anything fancy… but it was a nice chance to interact with her for 15 minutes before she left for school.
It was also my last chance.
Today is her last day of high school. Her graduation is on Sunday. And in August she’ll be leaving home for college.

My daughter started kindergarten thirteen years ago… and I did much the same thing with her back then – made her breakfast and got her out the door. Of course, getting her ready for school was a lot more hands-on back then, and…
