This week's guest was Joel D Canfield, author of the book "You Don't Want A Job." We talked about how having a job is perhaps the riskiest career decision we will ever make. Topics discussed included lack of loyalty in the workplace, the ability to schedule your own time, and choosing your clientele.

We also talked about how being technically competent in something does NOT make us qualified to run a business in that area. There are learnable skills that are required to run a successful business.

We also talked about his publishing and writing career in terms of choosing to self-publish instead of finding a big publisher. Several notable differences included creative freedom, and the speed at which your book can reach the marketplace when you publish independently.

Joel also published 6 books simultaneously last year on 11.11.11, and we talked about the "why" and "how" he did that.

We also had a great discussion about specific techniques anyone can use to alleviate stress to achieve greater balance and increase performance in all areas of our lives.

John also talked about his upcoming book which focuses on resolving his "angry guy" issues. Much of the book highlights the same strategies he used to help himself as well as others in his Alphabiotic practice.
