Did I ever tell you about the time I became a New York Times Best Selling author? I was working in marketing years ago and I started to pioneer a new marketing strategy that was building my company's brand awareness, generating brand validation and creating new job opportunities.

I thought to myself, if only other companies were implementing the same marketing approach, they too could do the same. I started to write about this and then I got busy. I told myself I would revisit this later.

Eventually, the book did come out. My title. But there was a problem, my name was not on the cover of this book because my manuscript was still on my shelf and I never finished it.

"There's nothing wrong with having that fear. Fear is a legitimate emotion, it exists for a reason. There is something wrong with allowing the fear to be the thing that makes the decision."

IN THIS EPISODE

• Why I never finished my manuscript.
• How to never accomplish anything.
• The reasons we don't move forward with our ideas.
