SMR Day Fifteen - Your Hero
I keep talking about @BobGoff's new book Dream Big because it’s great and you should pick it up.
But this morning, I had a huge revelation about it.
In the book, Bob talks about his chance meeting with Donald Miller, who at the time was already a bestselling author.
I believe Don was kayaking by when Bob shot saltwater taffy from a candy cannon at Don and his buddies and invited them up for dinner.
After they became friends, Bob casually, sheepishly mentioned that maybe someday, he’d possibly like to write down a few stories for his wife and kids to read.
Let it sink in.
Three-time NYT Bestselling Author Bob Goff, at some point, wanted to write a book but wasn’t sure he could.
A question I ask my coaching clients all the time is this:
“When you scroll, who makes you jealous?
Whatever that person is doing is likely what you wish you were doing.
AND
It is 100% true, that person, at one time, DID NOT KNOW HOW to do the thing for which you now admire them.
What else can that mean but START SOMETHING TODAY!
Bob Goff has written three NYT bestselling books because one day he started writing the first one.
This is the way of things. Embrace it.
