Foreword
If you have opened this book, you are someone who wants to succeed. Perhaps you’re seeking financial freedom; or career satisfaction; or a deeply fulfilling relationship. Maybe you want to write a best seller; or run a marathon; or sail across an ocean. Or maybe you just want to find a date; or lose some weight; or reclaim some joy.
You’ve tried; God knows you’ve tried. Sometimes you’ve even had a glimmer of hope; you’ve seen some progress. Then all of a sudden, you’ve slid back to where you began. Or worse.
But no matter how hard you work to achieve success, something always seems to be getting in your way. Time passes; and you never get any closer to you goals.
Well luckily, you’re in the right place. This small, but powerful, book will finally help you bust through what’s been holding you back. The life you want will be yours.
With this book, you will—once and for all—decipher the code; you will unlock the secret
Because, you see, a lot of folks see success as something of a mystery, a black box. They see it as something that happens by chance; something that’s reserved for a lucky few; something set aside for the 1%.
But, that’s not true. Success is like a cake recipe. When you follow the recipe, you will succeed. There are proven success principles and strategies and tools that when you use and apply them, they will deliver predictable and reliable results.
I learned this the hard way. When I first started my law firm decades ago, I was winging it. I had no clue. I had no clue how to advertise or market or have sales conversations. I had no idea how to do business development or land clients . . . let alone how to actually do the work! I had no clue as to what actually yielded results and what didn’t.
I was good at throwing money at stuff . . . but pretty randomly. I’d chase the latest Yellow Page promotional schemes (that’s dating myself I know), and then later lead generation gigs, and then Internet pay per click advertisements. SEO and SEM and S & M . . . just checking to see if you’re still reading. . . .
I was successful. But by accident; not by design. And not without wasting a lot of time and money. And not without a lot of stress. Because the success wasn’t linear. There were these huge ups and downs. The entrepreneurial roller coaster as Darren Hardy might say. No predictability that I could rely on. Up and down. Feast or famine.
Because I had no system; no recipe.
That’s, of course, how I stumbled into my coaching and consulting biz. Haphazardly. Without a plan. Without a system. Without a recipe. And when you do (or don’t do!) the same thing, you tend to get the same results. Haphazard. Inconsistent. Unreliable.
But, at that juncture, I couldn’t afford haphazard. Too much was at stake. I had a lawyer’s income that I had relied on, that my family had relied on. There were mortgages and bills and overhead and infrastructure. I didn’t have the luxury of ‘doing what I loved’ hoping that the money would follow. (Hope is not a strategy as I tell my clients.) I didn’t want the risk. I couldn’t have the risk.
So after stumbling around in the darkness . . . and experiencing way too much uncertainty (you may read this as way too many really lean months with bills that were late, and credit card companies that were calling, and college tuitions that were due), I sought out a system. And found one.
From time to time, I got tempted to go rogue . . . to try out my own entrepreneurial ideas. And then I stopped myself short. Somebody had taken the time to engineer a system . . . to write out a recipe. I better follow the recipe, I thought. And I did.
And it worked. Together with my beautiful business partner (and life partner) Ann Sheybani, I created a way to do the work in the world that I cared about deeply . . . serving talented entrepreneurs and business professionals all around the world . . . coaching, collaborating, creating . . . writing, speaking, sharing . . . with the freedom to travel and adventure all around the globe . . . with the ability to spend much of our year on a beautiful hillside overlooking the North Atlantic in County Cork, Ireland, with a prosperity and joy we could once only dimly hope for.
Because I followed a recipe.
Sometimes, when I’m coaching a client who is just starting out in business, I’ll see them trying to deviate from the recipe . . . wanting to go off piste like I once did . . . wanting to do it their own way. Of course it usually doesn’t yield the results they imagine.
Chris Salem has created a powerful recipe here. Follow it.
Here’s another thing I know for sure: Mindset matters. Will power matters. How we set our mind, how we think, actually affects outcome.
In their book, Mindset: The New Psychology of Success, Stanford professors Greg Walton and Carol Dweck establish convincingly that those who believe in the strength of will
