I’m on the verge of confirming the subtitle of my new book. Once I do, I’m going to reveal the title, subtitle (and maybe even give you a glimpse of the cover). But for now, I’m going to share another excerpt from it (to be published by Wiley-Capstone, Autumn 2016). This is from a chapter called “The Principles of Impact”:

As you may know, I’ve spent much of the past five months sequestered in hotel rooms, working on my forthcoming book.

In the meantime, here’s an article I first ran following the release of my first book, CLARITY. It covers the answer to a question that a lot of people ask when they're introduced to my work: So what’s the point of learning about principles?

There is a phenomenon that have continued to amaze me as I’ve deepened my understanding of the principles behind clarity over the years. While we tend to try and make changes to the “form” of life, it continually amazes me just fluidly change can happen when we look before the form, to where the creative power in life is. In this article, you’re going to be introduced to a powerful yet simple metaphor for how this works.
