Greetings an audio visual studio in Amsterdam, Wait! Where’s Pepper!? I know. So crazy. I said yes to something and one thing lead to another. Here’s the mathematical formula:  Know the outcome of when you say no Don’t know the outcome of when you say yes Say yes Be open to what happens Explore Adventure Play If you say yes to something unknown in the coming week, reply to this email or comment un...

Greetings from the woods of Driebergen, I’m going to keep this introduction short.  It’s about frequency. I see it in two forms:  Calendar:  daily, weekly, monthly? How often should we do things, what are the things we should do, and with how much intensity should we do them? Radio:  the radio waves are out there and always transmitting. All you need to do is tune into your frequency to connect. A...

Greetings again from Bologna, Italy, We made it to the football (soccer) match. It was super fun. Had it been easy to get tickets, that would have been the end of the story.  It turns out, getting the tickets WAS the story.  What if the destination, the goal, is the journey?  Could we have it backwards? Is it possible that “getting to the game” is at least as important (or memorable or fun) as “be...

Greetings from Bologna, Italy, I ?had a call this morning with a partner, colleague, friend. For an hour, we batted around ideas, gave feedback, and took the criticism and praise. ?Did you catch that last part? ? ??Criticism Praise ?It’s not all rainbows and unicorns. When we “debate” something on our own, we only have our own opinion, experience, and mindset. When we dare to open up our ideas and...

Greetings from Driebergen, Back in The Netherlands after 3 weeks in the States.  I had forgotten 1 thing about travel: it’s addictive. If you do it, you want to do more. You can get used to it, better at it, and if you’re anything like me, you’ll want to do more and more until you can go no more.  See you next week from a brand-new location.  Bradley [ https://youtu.be/UlksWWaEzx8 ]

Greetings from South Lake Tahoe, California, U.S., In last week’s  Thursday Thunder episode , we talked about how it had been more than a year that I had written daily. This week, I have physical, even visceral, proof of how powerful it can be when we get our thoughts out on a regular basis.  My sister gave me a bunch of old photo albums, most of which my mom had put together over the years, that...

Greetings from Truckee, California, U.S., There was something missing over the past 10 days of our vacation. I couldn’t pinpoint it but then yesterday morning it hit me.  ?I ?don’t know if it’s the same for you but when I’m not doing this one simple thing, I’m not living my life to the fullest.  ?Yep, it’s pretty much that simple.  ?Make it a great weekend.  Bradley [ https://youtu.be/sMS-a1c8iyY...

Greetings from Lake Chelan, Washington, This is an episode about nudging, collaboration, and co-creation. I have been bugging (nagging, pleading, begging, asking, daring … ) with Adwynna MacKenzie to get the audiobook version of her bestselling book, Carefree, started. There’s good news and bad news. The good news? She started. The bad news? You only get one chapter. For now. Want more? Want to he...

Greetings from Driebergen, I ?took up a DARE to try a new software. Well, software I ?knew (Canva) but a new feature: ?video!  ?I ?was running out of time today and gave it my best shot but I ?knew I wasn’t going to make it. It’s  terrible . (But did you notice there’s a link? ?I dare post my terrible attempt at something?)  ?It’s good to (1) receive the dares, especially from  friends , and then...

Greetings from Driebergen, I love to record audiobooks. I might even like it more than I like writing the books.  ?In this video, I give a bit of insight into the behind the scenes of audiobook pricing and the percentages we as authors and narrators get.  ?It’s not pretty. ?Well, unless I ?can deliver direct. Which I ?now can.  Make it a great Thursday. Bradley [ https://youtu.be/AWS6vZmv6_4 ]

Greetings from Driebergen, Thanks to the numbering of these weekly videos, I realized it’s the 26th week of the year–exactly halfway.  I hope you have moved forward from the beginning of the year but I seem to want to go even further back and  get my foundation solid . Although I’m doing 27 projects at a time, how are the basics? What about the core of your offerings? The roots of the tree, the fo...

Greetings from Driebergen, This week’s Thursday Thunder episode is all about attitude. Are we stuck with what we have forever or can we change it? Also, I’d love your feedback on the new delivery system for ebooks and audiobooks (and the bundle) using PayHip + BookFunnel.  Make it a great day! Bradley Here’s the link to the ebook + audiobook bundle: https://payhip.com/b/hE9HW [https://youtu.be/Fm0...

Greetings from Driebergen, Sure, I have stories of mom. But their MY stories. What about other stories that are not mine? Friends? Family? You know how to get those stories from others? It’s super easy. It’s that powerful yet someone scary 3-letter word: ask. I’m been overwhelmed with the joy, love, even gratitude that I’m asking mom’s friends for their stories. It’s all going into her book, “ God...

Greetings from Driebergen, So you’ve got your book done; GREAT!  And now you may wonder what’s next.  Here’s a suggestion for you: get invited as a guest speaker on other people’s podcasts, memberships or (online) events and talk about your book! By doing so, people will start downloading the book and will come into your world, you will build your audience and create a bigger reach with every gues...

Greetings from Driebergen, What if you had an assignment where you “had to” write your memoir. Right now. Now on your deathbed, but just now. ?Not an autobiography, which starts with when and where you were born … blah blah blah. Boring. ?But what about just a story or three? ?What if that were what you had to do? Or forget “had to,” ?but wanted to”? ?Would you want to? ?That’s what I’m working on...

Greetings from Driebergen, Let’s just say for a moment that we have the daily, weekly stuff going on. Maybe even the monthly and annually. Awesome possum. What about the once-in-a-lifetime stuff? The “big” stuff? Are we taking care of that along the way? Can 13 minutes on the basketball court help us get a little closer to it? Bradley [ https://youtu.be/O3L9FDjq5dM ]

Greetings from Driebergen, I woke up at 4:33 AM and within minutes, I had a “formula” or maybe it’s an “equation” but it’s as simple as 1, 2 and 3 and we all have the power to harness what might be one of the secrets to a long and healthy and vibrant and loving and meaningful life. There’s also the birds. You can listen to them, too. Bradley [ https://youtu.be/0ZfBbiUMbIA ]

Greetings from Driebergen, Oh, they’re not my 14 minutes. They’re from a woman named Sarah. I’m 7 minutes as an introduction to her. She’s 14. 21 minutes. Worth a listen? Bradley [ https://youtu.be/0YSAbwETbjc ] [ https://youtu.be/NLSQxWSGDCA ]

Greetings from Driebergen, There is often an underlying pressure from “society” ?about what we’re “supposed” to (have to) ?do.  ?What if I ?gave you an out, a free pass, the permission to not do something you don’t want to do (but think you have to). ?I’m going to set you free.  Make it a great Thursday. Love and fireworks, Bradley [ https://youtu.be/TuCP5hKxGQw ]

It’s up to you whether or not you want to be in the frequency of it. [ https://youtu.be/ShRo8xYKLlk ]

It’s very Silicon Valley, very hard (and very easy at the same time), and is the core of the Worst Book Ever success.

DO Do you dig deeper into your best work? How can you get the most out of your good ideas? Do you take another perspective on your work? For example, in the writing world, writing and narrating are very different. It comes into your brain in a different way. Seems super simple–and it is–but it’s powerful. DON’T DO What are you doing where you shouldn’t be digging deeper? What don’t you like? What...

Greetings from Driebergen, Here’s a personal invitation to join me in “creating an experience” and do something crazy this year.  Let’s kick off the end of Covid (it’s ending soon, right?) by going out of our comfort zone and writing a (super short) book. People ask what we’re “creating” at Worst Book Ever? We’re not creating “authors” but we’re creating experiences.  This is me inviting you to “e...

Good evening from Driebergen!  How good do you have to be?  When do you know if you’re good enough?  When do you know enough? When have you taken enough courses, read enough books, listened to enough podcasts and audiobooks and speeches and talks and presentations and then did it all yourself and taught others and learned more and earned another degree and …  Tired yet?  When?  ?Oh, one more thing...
