Greetings from Driebergen, I’m not terribly interested in people’s January 1 new year’s resolutions. Because, usually, they don’t last. They’re based on a fad or a flame or … who knows. By February, you probably know: Greetings from Driebergen, I’m not terribly interested in people’s January 1 new year’s resolutions. Because, usually, they don’t last. They’re based on a fad or a flame or … who knows. By February, you probably know: What didn’t workWhat did workWhat you REALLY want to do So. It’s Feb. 3. What New Year’s Resolutions are you actually going to stick with? Sometimes, it takes a third party, another person, an external force, to get you to take action and change. If you’d like, I’m happy to be that catalyst for change. I got my (online) world rocked (as I explain in the video) and I’ll need to take major action to change in 2022. One of those things will be a new email address ([email protected]), new domain, and new YouTube channel. It’s right here: go.repossible.com/youtube Of course, you’re signed up via email, but if you’d like to sign up for the YouTube channel, there’s the link. Let me know what your plans are post February 3. Until next week! Bradley [ https://youtu.be/buiYGSNNIVM ]

Greetings from rainy Driebergen, The main pushback I ?get when people are talking to me about the book they want to write it how many pages it needs to be. ??342297186 ?What if it were just one page? ?Just one word? ? ?My thinking? ?If I can publish a book with just one single word as the body, the contents, you can too, right? ? ?Just saying. Here’s a link to that book (it’s free): ?”The One-Word Book That Will Probably Change Your Life.” Bradley ?P.S. If you’d like to write a 1-to-oh-I-don’t-know-1,000-word book, join the next class of Worst/First/Shortest Book Ever. [ https://youtu.be/97lycPzS4kM ]

Greetings from Driebergen (and NOT California), My long-term goal is to strive towards the model that ?Vishen Lakhiani created with Mindvalley. ?But part of me thinks, “Why and how should I even bother striving towards something that’s already there, already established, popular and crazy successful?” ?Think back to when In-N-Out Burger thought about starting and had the same idea about McDonald’s? ?Just saying.

Greetings from cold and dreary Driebergen, My business coach, my mastermind group, they’re all telling me the same thing: Do What You’re Good AtDo What Has (Already) WorkedDo What You Love Doing Did you see how those first two and the third one magically connected? They’re not always like that. Often you’re not so interested in what you’re good at (I’m good at math but please don’t ask me to do your taxes). In 2021, the most fun, the most successful, the most requested program and/or book in my repertoire? Write Your Worst Book Ever So back for February, 2022 to start off this cold and foggy January day off on an action-taking foot: it’s on. Bradley [ https://youtu.be/_9J03OhqWB0 ]

Greetings from Driebergen, Back home to sub-freezing temperatures, early sunsets, and … give. It’s the year to give. Give a chance. Offer a platform. Share your story. That’s what my plan is. Want to be a part of it? It’s all here below in 8 minutes on the first Thunder of the year. Happy New Year! Bradley [ https://youtu.be/hfaDnK8NjY8 ] In the first video, I mention the first take or draft. It’s below. Good stuff in there just a bit rambling.

Greetings from Rome, ?Wow, this city is one of those places where there’s a hidden gem around every corner and you’re not sure you could see it all in a week or a month or even a year. ?But you’re going to give it a shot. ?Speaking of what you can do in how much time, that’s one of the books on the agenda for 2022. ?What’s on your agenda for next year? ?Many greetings from a magical Rome. ?Happy New Year! ?Bradley [ https://youtu.be/DbefhZ1Be_0 ]

Greetings from Driebergen, You know what’s easy? Netflix. Sit back, relax, enjoy. You know what’s harder? Creating the story. We could sit back and watch what happens to 2022. Or we could create our own story. Plan what’s going to happen. Draw a roadmap, no matter how simple or even messy, but take the time to plan the year ahead. Are you someone who does that? I’m not. I just create stuff. It works well. Kinda. Usually. Better? Plan and then create stuff. That’s what I’ll be doing from January 10 to January 14 each morning from 10 AM to Noon live with the guidance of Nicoline Huizinga and Josta Marijn Kolk. Want to join us? Check it out. Or have a look at our video chat below. See you next week. Happy Holidays! Bradley [ https://youtu.be/i1ijkFBNNOc ]

Greetings from Driebergen, Three options to do stuff: ? ??DIY: Do It YourselfDWY: ?Done With YouDFY: ?Done For You ??DIY: Do It Yourself ?It’s all you. In fact, it’s just you. But brushing your teeth, reading a book, it’s all good all alone. ?Want to do that course self-paced? You go. Looking for a bit of help? ?It might be time for some … DWY: ?Done With You ?Teams, collaborations, and together. Coaching, group events, and even retreats (which can also be DIY, of course). Accountability, partnerships, sharing and even, gasp, maybe compromising. ?Bonus Points: ?1 + 1 > 2 ?DFY: ?Done For You ?I ?used to do my own taxes (DIY). I ?used to think it was fun. Then it was not fun. Then it became DFY and oh boy oh boy was that the best decision ever. ??What’s DIY for you? ?When do you choose DWY? ?And DFY? ? ?I ?challenged you to do 9. Here are 9 for me, grouped by topic. ?BONUS POINTS if you add frequency. ?Meditation ??DIY: daily practice, 15-45 minutes each morning.DWY: monthly co-healing meditation group. In person. DFY: ?daily YouTube testimonials (watch). ?Creating ??DIY: ideas (see meditation), writing, recording (audio or video). Daily. DWY: weekly calls with partners and mastermind groupsDFY: ?hmm, I ?don’t have much here. Or I can’t think of much. Maybe some help I ?get with my assistant who helps me with marketing? ?Mindset, Well-Being, Learning ??DIY:? daily inspirational videos (YouTube, usually testimonials)DWY:? interviews (my own and/or other podcasts, summits)DFY: ?buying pre-made courses from others Whew, that was tougher than I ?thought. How’d you do? How about how often to do which? ?That sounds like Frequency. That’s coming in 2022. Bradley? [ https://youtu.be/BMd3XM-RwbE ]

Greetings from Driebergen, I ?have a presentation tonight on using humor in presentations and speeches. ?I ?have a few things not to do: ? ??Attempt funny (and untested) ?jokesGo for the improvisational “spar with the audience”Wing it ?Whereas I ?have a few tactics that can work even if you’re in that huge part of the population that always comes up to me after a talk and asks, “But what if I’m not funny?” ? ?These are for you: ? Set the tone, “Own the Stage.” ?Set the scene BEFORE you even open your mouth. Even a long pause can get the audience’s attention. This makes all the difference. “Where’s the humor in this?” ?you ask. It can be in a gesture, a smile, a light disposition. PRO TIP: don’t open with a PowerPoint presentation … ?Tell BAD ?jokes. Then laugh AT and WITH yourself. (See video below.)Self-deprecating humor. See note about bad jokes. Tell a joke or something funny about yourself in which you are silly or dumb or ______ something the audience can relate to. It breaks the ice, it brings them onto your side. ?But my Number 1 tip for better–and funnier–public speaking? ? ?Practice. ?Want to get even better than that? ?Practice some more. ?It’s December 10, 2021. This is episode #49 of 2021. I ?did another 52 weeks in 2020. That means I’m out here busting my butt 48 times practicing out here on my Forest Stage so when I’m on the “real” ?stage, I’m all the more ready. ?Was each one award-winning and awesome? ? ?Absolutely not. ?Did I ?get better each time? ?Probably. ?PRO TIP: No, you can’t think about speaking or talk about speaking. The words have to come out of your mouth, your vocal cords have to vibrate and sound has to exit your body. THEN, and only then, are you practicing. ?I’m here on Thursdays. Even though today is Friday. ?Humor me. ?Show up. ?Send me a video. ?See you next week. ?Bradley ? [ https://youtu.be/olUtP11tXjg ]

Greetings from Driebergen, Let’s see: Eat lessDon’t drink alcoholWake up earlyMeditateCreate ?That’s kinda it. ?That, IMHO, is super fun. ?It’s weirdly even, dare I ?say, MORE fun than the drinking and debauchery of the holiday vacation. ?My question: ?”How can we make our daily existence at least as good as our holiday life?” ? ?The book I ?was reading was called Sooley. ?Enjoy your “regular” week. ?See you next Thursday. Bradley P.S. If you’re of an entrepreneurial nature, here’s something I’m going to be running in late January. Careful, there’s commitment involved.

Greetings from the wet and cold forests in Driebergen, ?The book (or art or project or program or ________ ?) you create this year is only possible this year. ?Even if you remember, you take notes, and you try your hardest to make your opinions, experiences, and “who you are” ?just like this year but you don’t do it until next year, it’s just not you. ?Each book you do is then a part of you. Even if you tear it up, toss it in to the garbage, or sell tons of copies, it’s a part of you. ?Your next book next year will be the You of Next Year. ?It’s embedded in you. ?Well, that is, if you do it. ?This year. ?It’s November 25. Just saying. See you next week. Bradley [ https://youtu.be/bR5694ZPnlw ]

Greetings from Fuerteventura, The Canary Islands, Spain, I’m learning how to kite surf this week. ?I’m terrible. ?Wait a minute. I’m a beginner. I’m supposed to be terrible, right? ? ?But then why and how can I still compare myself with the instructor who is so awesome? ?And how often do we do this same thing in so many aspects of our lives? ?Compare yourself to the self of last week. ?Much better, right? ? ?Greetings from the sun and fun and … pain of water sports failures. Bradley [ https://youtu.be/vsH-iMl2WYk ]

Greetings from Zeist, First of all, I know it’s Friday morning. Sometimes I record TT in the afternoon and then I get home and there are kids and dinner and basketball practice and it takes time to export it from my phone, edit the video, upload it to YouTube and … you get the idea. But I’m persistent: I’m not going to change it to Friday Frolic. Thursday Thunder … but sometimes on a Friday morning. ?Now, where was I? Oh yes, on my bike. ?Because I ?just met with a friend. ?In person. ?We exchanged ideas. Asked each other questions. Pushed back. Doubted, wondered, suggested. ?That’s hard to do alone. ?So get out of the house and meet up with someone (if you’re able and allowed … ) and dare to share your ideas, to let them out of your head, and I ?can (almost) promise you, you will be stronger for it, your ideas will be more mature, and you will have a more concrete plan for the near future. ?Or at least you’ll have a nice trip home. ?Enjoy the woodsy scenery of Zeist and Driebergen, The Netherlands. ?’till next THURSDAY. ?Bradley [ https://youtu.be/KoswXtgERvk ]

Greetings from Driebergen, I’m going to walk the talk and keep this … short. ?AND powerful. Blaise Pascal said: ? “I’m sorry I wrote you such a long letter. I didn’t have time to write you a short one.” ?Shorter is usually better, usually takes more time than longer, and you have to do nasty stuff like … edit. Yuck. ?In keeping with the theme, I’ll stop writing and give you 6 minutes to watch “Kort En Krachtig.” Bradley ?P.S. I’m working on a program to create a short book so you can actually FINISH it. More at that with a click of the button. Video below. [ https://youtu.be/wHIVPQoGpoY ]

Greetings from Driebergen, I was lighting a candle this morning and noticed the lighter was on “high.” The little knob let out lots of gas for a big flame. But I was just lighting a candle. I only need the tiniest of flames to light a candle. Then that candle can light the rest of the candles in my house. It could also start a fire in the fireplace (well, if we had one … ), and it could even burn down the whole house, the neighborhood, even the forest and town I live in. But let’s just back to the lighter, the size of the flame, and that candle. Just one little flame for a few seconds is all that’s required. Kinda like writing your first (short) book. Here’s my morning in the dark and the early afternoon in the meadow under the sun. What spark will you ignite this week? Bradley [ https://youtu.be/lsmXYpVov9o ]

Greetings from Florence, Italy, A friend gave me a list of words last week and he wanted me to choose just one that most represented my business. I ?can’t remember them all and some were sure tempting (creativity, productivity, trust) ?but one of them stood out at the top: ? ?Confidence. ?I ?figured if I ?just had a little more of that one I ?could achieve the other ones–or at least it would help me get closer. ?The word next to confidence was Power. If you have confidence, you have (or get) power. ?Could it be so simple. ?I’ll walk you through a bit of Florence this morning and tell you how 100 grams of flour and 1 egg might lead to a breakthrough in yourself and/or your business. ?Ciao!

Greetings from Driebergen, What are you up to on Sunday? If you could create the day exactly as you’d like, what would it be like? If I could create a day, and invite 6 others to join us, here’s what it would look like. Until we meet in the woods… Bradley P.S. Oh wait. Sounds like something you might like to join?

Greetings from Driebergen, We’ve been back from the States for about 5 weeks. I’ve now lost about 5 kilos. ??8/30 — 85.79/3 — 84.09/10 — 83.19/17 — 82.09/24 — 82.110/1 — 81.610/5 — 80.8 It’s Friday morning as I ?type (and record) ?this. I ?weigh myself weekly on Friday morning. Guess which evenings the intermittent fasting goes more easily? ? Yep: ? ???TuesdayWednesday and especially:Thursday ?I ?have a weekly deadline: Friday morning on the scale. ?As yummy as Thursday night’s dinner is, I’m not going to eat it. I usually eat it on Friday for lunch. ?Speaking of tips, here are a few: ? ?Keep busy: ?Wednesday evenings are easier to skip because I ?have basketball practice from 6 to 7:15 and don’t get home until 8 PM–when dinner is usually over. PRO TIP: ?if I’m really hungry and/or just feel like eating, I often will just go to sleep because it’s hard to eat when you’re not awake. Compare: ?weigh the difference (OK pun intended!) between: ?How yummy was dinner?How awesome do I ?feel in the morning when I ?skipped dinner?Test: ?I ?know, #2 can be hard to do if you haven’t yet experienced that powerful feeling of waking up feeling great. ??I’m going to make a #4 here as a “cheat” ?code.Go to sleep: ?you can’t eat if you’re asleep. I sleep better, faster, deeper, and there’s more healing energy available because my body isn’t digesting dinner. I ?need less sleep and the sleep I ?have is better. I ?wake up refreshed and, surprisingly, not hungry. Water: ?if I ?do wake up hungry, drink as much water as you can and then drink that amount again. Yep, twice what you think you should. ?Why do I ?do this? ?How can I be so antisocial and skip dinners with my family? ? ?Here are a few benefits to intermittent fasting: ? ??Energy: ?I feel alive, my energy level is more constant (and constantly higher), and I ?don’t have the afternoon dips as much. Confidence: ?I ?know, this might seem weird or difficult unrelated or even impossible, but it all affects my confidence, self-esteem, and internal power. Crazy, I ?know. Sleep: ?I ?sleep less yet feel more energized when I ?wake up. You’d think this doesn’t make mathematical sense (and it doesn’t) but basically, your body doesn’t need to spend so much energy at night digesting your dinner. Alive/Awake: ?I don’t know how to explain this one. I ?just “feel better.” ?Creativity: ?I have more ideas and more good ideas. See #2 about confidence and I ?think these ideas could be something I ?could do. ?I ?could keep going with benefits but I’ll save them for another time. ?I ?got things to do today. ?Make it a thunderous Thursday.

Greetings from highway A12, You know when someone tells you something you could (READ: should) do and you don’t do it and you don’t know why you don’t do it (because it’s a good idea) and you finally, after years, realize that this is what you should be doing and then you make the bold statement that you’re going to do that that? Then you’re going to do it over and over? So that happened on Tuesday. Bradley [ https://youtu.be/4oMFOzome80 ]

Greetings from Driebergen, ?Play. ?We all know what it is. But do we do it? ?What are the benefits of it? ? ?Just to compare and contrast, here are few terms for you to swish around while watching: ? Matter vs. EnergyParticle vs. WaveChronos vs. KairosWork vs. Play ?Recognize any of those? ? ?10 minutes from the woods to get you to go out and play–and allow, let in, surrender to the greatness that will inevitably come to you when you stop … working so hard. ?Happy Thursday.

Greetings from the exotic islands in the north of The Netherlands, ?Well, at least that’s where David Chislett is. ?In the coming weeks and months, I’m going to focusing more and more on Ambassadors. I’m planning on making it the focus of my monthly newsletter (The 17th). ?You may remember last week I ?had top quality video and audio thanks to the team at BFF Visuals. They produced David’s entire online course. ?Without BFF, David could have produced a course but it would have been of lesser quality. ?Without me last week, he could have told his story, but not in interview format. ?We need each other, we work better when we work together. ?But that’s all news for tomorrow. ?Today, I ?want to talk about the actual content of David’s course: ?Rock Your Writing. ?Well, actually better than me just telling you about it, let’s let David tell us about it. ?Below is our 16-minute chat about his writing course that’s not a grammar course, not a book-writing course, but a course that is going to help you get across what you want to actually say more efficiently and effectively. ?Thanks for watching this week and let me know what you think of his course!

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 noDon’t know the outcome of when you say yesSay yesBe open to what happensExploreAdventurePlay If you say yes to something unknown in the coming week, reply to this email or comment under this YouTube video and let me know about it.

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. And by “radio” it could mean tuning into your true self, your future, or … who knows. The “Calendar” is your roadmap, your blueprint, your guide. The “Radio” is your speed, your connection, your tune. A quick personal example from a creator’s (writer’s) perspective: Daily: writing, meditating, brushing teethWeekly: podcasting, video recordingMonthly: newsletter, speaking (on stage)Annually: conference, evaluate I often write books that I need to read myself. Where does the content come from? From conversations, books, listening. Discussing. With whom? With you. I’m putting out the call to connect (get the “frequency” theme going on here?). If you have experience with a daily habit that’s working or a weekly ritual or anything else on whatever topic (health, wealth, work, personal, etc.) you’d like to pitch to me for a less-than-30-minute chat, let’s do it. Head to frequency.repossible.com, fill in your email, and let’s set up a time. Keep it at a high frequency this week and let’s talk soon. Bradley [ https://youtu.be/ePFWw5ynS8g ]

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 “being at the game”? We got through the day, got to our destination with: PersistencePatiencePassion The destination was sweeter because the journey was longer, tougher, more of a struggle. Coming to you live from the center of Bologna after the soccer match, this week’s Thursday Thunder actually happened on Sunday. Crazy, I know. But sometimes, the Thunder comes before the lightning. The journey is the destination. See you next week. Keep your frequency high and your heart rumbling with thunder. Bradley P.S. The photo above is of what someday might have been a ticket office. Not today. Not for us. Not for this journey. [ https://youtu.be/ePFWw5ynS8g ] [ https://youtu.be/64ujo8XMMak ] [ https://youtu.be/7TWJG_b6wPE ]

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? ? ??CriticismPraise ?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 plans, dreams and far-out goals, it can be scary but chances are good they’ll become stronger. ?Set up a weekly (or monthly) call with someone with whom you can bat around ideas. Ideally, someone who’s on a similar path and nearby as far as experience. ?Don’t just talk about pasta and the weather but dare to challenge yourself and let go of the hesitation and fear and just see what happens. ?It’s better to get the feedback that it’s a terrible idea–or a great one–to a small audience than to flop on stage when you unveil your big new idea. ?Make it fun, make it regular, but make it happen. ?That photo up there is my best “teamwork” ?shot of the week as Luca hates clothes shopping (and I’m not a big fan, either), but together we made it happen. ?THEN we got ice cream. ?Make it a great Thursday. ?Oh, and if it’s not such a great Thursday, it’ll be around in 7 days for more.

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 I needed to look through and decide whether to keep or scan digitally and throw away. I came across one I didn’t even know my mom had made from my then-girlfriend-now-wife and my world trip complete with a journal entry towards the end of the trip that emphasized the importance of writing on a regular basis to get the thoughts out of our heads and hearts and into the world (even if not publicly). I’ll read a short excerpt from a journal of mine when we were in Mongolia. I hope it inspires you to journal daily or at least on a regular basis. Until next week, keep writing. Bradley [ https://youtu.be/2YFZe5Q8RnU ]

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.

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?

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 (2) give it a shot, but it’s also OK to (3) give up if you run out of time or energy or whatever. Here’s a bit of daring and then I’m dropping in the chapter from the audiobook DARE called Educate. ?I hope you enjoy it. Make it a great Thursday. Bradley [ https://youtu.be/GB9606d5SlY ]

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 foundation of the building, the easy, simple, yet often overlooked stuff. I talk basketball in the video but I have just revamped, redesigned, reedited, and recorded the audiobook for the first book in the Repossible series, Ask. You can get the bundled ebook and audiobook here and use the code THUNDER for 25% off. https://payhip.com/b/cKSvg How’s your foundation? How often do you revisit the basics? Make it a great Thursday.

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?

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, “Goddamn Attitude.” Bradley [ https://youtu.be/BEDjrpAT058 ]

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 guest speaking gig you do. Guest speaking gets your know-like-trust factor covered instantly and it will bring in new clients.

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–and the rewards are abundant and unexpected. ?Book is out June 12. When is your story ready to be told? ?Make it a great Thursday. Bradley [ https://youtu.be/qZxW_CUNlfU ]

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 are you not so good at? Can you farm it out? Can you just not do it?

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 “experience” something different this year and let’s do it together, from May 1 to 11th, and have a bit of a blast. Go to worst.repossible.com to check it out. Use the coupon code: THUNDER to save 25%. Maybe we haven’t seen each other for a while. Let’s do this crazy thing together. Just saying. It’s what I’ll be doing on May 1. I hope to see you inside! Love and fireworks, Bradley [ https://youtu.be/2dty-W6iwfI ]

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: ?those clients, those students? They also just need one thing. ?By the way… The power is on Thursdays. Just saying. Bradley BONUS: You get a quick tour of my boys’ school here in the woods in The Netherlands. [ https://youtu.be/FMth-0uW1sM ]

It’s early Thursday morning. So early even Pepper isn’t awake. I’m reading the books from the just-graduated class of “Write Your Worst Book Ever.” They’re good. They’re terrible. They’re the WORST. But there’s a lightness in them, a playfulness, a sense of “lifting” that something has been removed (armor? a cage? ceilings?) and they are free. You can join us from May 1 to May 10, 2021, and if you use the coupon code “THUNDER,” you’ll save 25%. Come join us and break through the flood gates, through the ceilings, and lift up through your heart and up into your worst book ever. https://u.repossible.com/p/wbe/?coupon_code=THUNDER I thought the group promotion was over but it seems to still be functioning.

Greetings from Driebergen! Welcome to 3rd and final episode in the 3-part series “TriTiTo.” Tri: TriggerTi: TimeTo: Together You might be able to trigger the action and you could set up your own deadline but going it alone is a whole other ballgame than working together.
