Books

Books literally saved my life...

I had become the target of a gang of sectarian bullies. I hid from them in the public library.

And it was there, in the reference section at the very back of the building, amongst rows of books not available for withdrawal but used for academic support, I found the sanctuary I was seeking… in more ways than one.

I knew my tormentors would never think of looking for me there.

But it was also there that I began to rummage through the shelves and found books on quantum physics and psychology… books which completely changed my thinking processes.

Most importantly, there was a section of biographies, where I read countless stories of achievers, all of whom had overcome far worse than I was suffering at the time. In them, I discovered common behavioural habits — And I decided to mimic them.

Ever since, my life has been one great, joyful adventure. I owe so much to books that, when I sold my first company, I decided to write one as a means of giving back. Three Simple Steps is a summary of what I learned from all those biographies and how I have applied them to my life.

I even donated a free copy to all 16,000 libraries in the U.S. I suppose it’s not surprising, then, that some of the best emails about adventure and success have come to me from people who were ‘stuck in quicksand’ before they found my book in a pile of others at their local library.

What could feel better than that?

Yet I knew there was more I wanted to write about…

I’ve had unprecedented success building single-person companies, and am proud to share my secrets for that with you.

Together, these books provide the basic tools needed to get out of the quicksand, take control of your mentality, and direct your newfound magical power into a vehicle that can take you to places you never imagined possible.

I’m living proof of their combined power.

Three Simple Steps

How many self-help books are written by authors whose biggest success is selling self-help books? Three Simple Steps is different.

Despite stock market crashes, dot-com busts, and the specter of recession, the author started a virtual company from home, using a few thousand dollars of his savings. A few years later, without ever hiring an employee or leaving his home office, he sold it for more than $100 million. As the economy slipped into another free fall, he did this again with a company in a different field. He accomplished this through no particular genius. Rather, he studied the habits of the many successful men and women who preceded him, and developed three simple rules that, if followed diligently, virtually ensure success. Using them first to escape poverty, then to achieve a life of adventures, he finally turned them toward financial independence.

Written in a straightforward and no-nonsense style, Three Simple Steps shows you how to take back control of your destiny and reshape your mind for increased creativity, serenity and achievement. While building on the wisdom of great thinkers and accomplished individuals from East and West, Three Simple Steps isn’t a new age text or guide to esoteric fulfillment. Rather, it’s a practical guide to real-life achievement by a pragmatic businessman who attributes his incredible successes to these very simple ideas. Three Simple Steps is a must-listen guide for everyone who wants to achieve more, live better and be happier.
