  • Behind the Book: Organizing, Writing and Gremlin-Taming
    “Perfectionism is the voice of the oppressor, the enemy of the people. It
    will keep you cramped and insane your whole life, and it is the main
    obstacle between you and a shitty first draft. I think perfectionism is
    based on the obsessive belief that if you run carefully enough, hitting
    each stepping-stone just right, you won’t have to die. The truth is that
    you will die anyway and that a lot of people who aren’t even looking at
    their feet are going to do a whole lot better than you, and have a lot more
    fun while they’re doing it.”
    ―Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life

  • 9: Big News . . . We Have a Book Deal!! Behind the Proposal Process

    Yes, we—there is no way this would be possible without you here reading, and for that I am grateful beyond words.

    The Pivot Method will be published in hardcover by Portfolio/Penguin in early 2016, one of the top business and career imprints, and I could not be more thrilled! Their vision for the book blew me away, and I feel very lucky to be in such great hands over this next leg of the JB journey.

  • 8: Cyber Security for Dummies: The Least You Need to Know with Willie Jackson

    Cyber crimes are increasing at a staggeringly multi-exponential rate. Ignorance about our devices and online security is no longer acceptable; cyber crimes affect over 1.5 million victims per day. That’s 18 victims per second, 556 million victims per year, and over 600,000 compromised Facebook accounts per day. [Source] The recent Sony hack was so sophisticated the FBI says it would have gotten past 90 percent of firms. This is not something we can afford to ignore, especially for those of us who run online businesses.

    Today I am thrilled to introduce you to my good friend, web strategist and performance expert Willie Jackson. As he says on today’s podcast:

  • 7: How to Find Your Zone of Genius with Laura Garnett

    What does it take to find your Zone of Genius and stay there?

    • What are the key ingredients to peak performance?
    • What are the biggest barriers?
    • If you think of your career as a car, what are the two biggest “headlights” that help you see clearly and do your best work?
    • How can our challenges serve as fuel for opportunity?
    • I had the pleasure of asking these questions to Laura Garnett, peak performance strategist for Fortune 100 CEOs, in a recent interview for my Pivot book.

      Our conversations were so inspiring and informative that I couldn’t bear to wait an entire year to share with you when the book comes out! I hope you enjoy as much as I did
