I’m enthusiastic about stuff – deal with it. Let me know what you think via twitter at @jamiesmartcom, on my Facebook page here, or in the comments below.
1. A quotation I’m appreciating this week
This week’s quote comes from my dear friend and colleague, bestselling author and superstar coach, Garret Kramer.
“Stay in the game.”
2. A hilarious viral video
The weekend before last, I flew to LA to speak at an event hosted by Chris Stoikos of Dollar Beard Club. Chris and his team have grown their business from zero to 14 million dollars in just over a year, and Chris is a HUGE fan of my book CLARITY. It was a great pleasure to meet him, his team and the incredible group of entrepreneurs and teachers they brought together. Here’s the video that started it all (includes some adult language): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bU64GI0Aj3A
3. A stroke of serendipity
In fact, in a stroke of good luck, Chris Stoikos and I both ended up getting interviewed by Alan Taylor of Inc. Magazine Radio. We spent half an hour talking about CLARITY, and the impact it has had on Chris’ business (he gets everyone on his team to read the book). CLARITY was a big turning point for Chris in building the hyper-successful Dollar Beard Club into a $14 million business over the past year.
4. VIDEO: Something exciting has just arrived for me by courier!
You can be part of the big unveiling of something I’ve been working on for over a year, here: https://www.facebook.com/jamiesmartcom/videos/10154638776026528/
5. This week’s 3 minute miracle
It seems like a million years ago that I first heard “People Who Died” by the Jim Carroll Band. The song’s video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9bOjc70f4p8 is made with clips from “The Basketball Diaries”, the screen adaptation of Jim Carroll’s youth (starring Leonardo DiCaprio). Classic tune, amazing energy.
That’s it for this week. Enjoy!
Big love
Jamie
PS Quick question: What’s the number-one RESULT that you believe would have the biggest positive impact for you? You may already be aware of my dear friend and colleague, Garret Kramer (author of the bestselling books Stillpower and The Path of No Resistance. For years, the principles behind clarity have been the foundation of all my work, and of Garret’s work with world-class professional athletes, teams, individuals, and organizations. Pointing people in this direction has transformed careers and lives. It’s led to extraordinary results.
Last time Garret was in the UK, we created an amazingly productive experience for members of my “Inner Circle” group (a group people had paid £5,000+ to be part of). To coincide with the release of my new book RESULTS: Think Less, Achieve More, we’re going to do something a little different. On the weekend of December 3rd and 4th, 2016, Garret is coming to London for the first time in five years, and joining me for an intensive, 2-day workshop with a small group of people. We’ll be hosting an exclusive two-day masterclass called “The Principles Behind Extraordinary Results.” In a stimulating and fun atmosphere, we’ll bring our grounding, skills, enthusiasm, and our extensive experience to help a small group of people achieve the results they envision. The event will be very limited in size so that everyone gets the personal attention they need to create the results they want. Here’s what we’re looking for:
– You already have a grounding in the principles behind clarity / the Inside-Out understanding
– You want 2017 to be a breakthrough year; you’re ready to move to a next level, personally and with your work/practice/business
– You’re in a position to experiment with new business models (e.g., monthly retainer, percentage of client’s earnings, multi-day intensives etc.)
– You want to be able to talk about this understanding in a practical, down-to-earth, no-nonsense way (this is essential when you’re talking to entrepreneurs, athletes, teams, and corporations)
– You’re coachable, and at a point where you’re ready and willing to change
If this sounds like you, reply to this message saying “Jamie and Garret – tell me more” and we’ll get back to you with the details.
Speak soon!
Big love
