Here goes! Nothing enthuses like enthusiasm. Let me know what you think via twitter at @jamiesmartcom, on my Facebook page here, or in the comments below.
1. A quote I’m resonating with this week
I listen to lots of interview-based podcasts, and one of my favourites is Recode Media with Peter Kafka. On a recent episode, he was interviewing music industry insider, Bob Lefsetz, author of the Lefsetz Letter, and I heard Lefsetz say something that struck me at a deep level. Here it is:
“Do not buy the famous books of people for advice. They are completely different people from you.
The only way you can make it is if you dig down deep and find out what’s special about you, and go have a lot of losses.
There’s one alternative: which is you can become a computer engineer or you can go to an Ivy League School and
work for a bank and you can make money. Other than that, all bets are off.
When people are telling you what to do, do not listen to them.”
2. A podcast I love
I love Joe Rogan’s podcast – he always has interesting guests and goes deep into whatever areas interest him. Here’s a recent one with creator of the Dilbert cartoon, Scott Adams. Adams was predicting that Trump would win the US Presidential race from a year earlier, based on Trump’s linguistic-street-fighting skills. Turns out he was right. You can listen to their conversation here: http://podcasts.joerogan.net/podcasts/scott-adams
3. An app that saves me time and hassle
The amazing “Receipt Bank” app https://www.receipt-bank.com/ means I don’t have to carry around pockets full of receipts for my business expenses. Every time I pay for something business-related, I just whip out my phone, open the app, snap a photo of the receipt and hit “Submit for processing”. It goes straight into our accounting system, and I can throw the receipt in the bin. RESULT!!!
4. Something I’m super excited about and proud of

When you get your copy of RESULTS today via www.JamieSmart.com/getresults you’ll also get lots of valuable bonuses and gifts to help you get results even faster.

5. This week’s 3 minute miracle
The Who’s classic song Won’t Get Fooled Again is up there with Baba O’Riley as one of the great rock songs of all time. It’s from the seminal album “Who’s Next?” This is great stuff: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zYMD_W_r3Fg
Thanks and big love,
Jamie
