Dear Friends,
The Execution Factor is officially one month old! The excitement feels surreal. I’ve been working on this for years (if not – my entire life!) and we’ve only just began. I am so very grateful for all your support! Amazing things have happened in the last month and none of this would have been possible without all of you!
In just one month, The Execution Factor is a national bestseller and ranked #2 on the Los Angeles Business Journal Bestseller List! This is truly a dream come true! What’s the one skill that will drive success in your business and personal life? Execution! I know this as it’s led to mine and I am so grateful to have the opportunity to share my story and help others succeed.
Success isn’t about IQ or knowing the right people or having the right degree or about a great idea! Ideas are a dime a dozen! It’s about Execution! And it’s a skill that can be learned.
I wasn’t in the talented and gifted class like my brother and sister in grade school, and after college, I was broke and laid off from my first job. From there, I went on to start my first company from my kitchen table with a $10,000 loan from my grandma. That company grew to over $100 million in annual revenue. If I can do it, you can do it! I’m here to support you to turn your dreaming into doing through mastering execution. Execution is the difference between success and failure.
Whether you want to buy a home, get a promotion, run a marathon, become an artist, grow as a leader, or start your own company, this book is for you to create a blueprint to achieve your goals. You are the CEO of your own life. It’s time to execute.
Many exciting moments happened over the last 30 days and I am so thankful to all of you! Here are a few highlights I wanted to share with you.
