The Amazing Life Formula
A pet project that was years in the making, The Amazing Life Formula is an ambitious information product that combines content marketing, interactive PDF downloads, and personal development. It's no accident that my life transformed, and I run my dream business from my laptop in tropical paradise. I made this happen. By studying the masters of [...]
A lesson in timelessness
Video is not immediate, in a digital world. This is paradoxical; we see a video, and we engage with it immediately.
