    I had to comment on the timing of this video. I began writing my business card yesterday! I remember you speaking on another video about using your book as your business card, and I determined then to do just that. Now that my business is running most smoothly I have the time and liberty to give writing a book the focus it requires.
    (Yes, Dan. Of course you get a free signed copy!)
    Oh, and yes, I will be self-publishing. I wanted to be a writer from the time I was very young. Now, I enjoy writing, but the dream has shifted...dramatically!
    Now, to hit play...

    Does anyone remember the movie Catch Me If You Can? Having a physical book you can hand someone makes you look like an authority. When they thumb through it, you look like an authority. If they read it, you would like to still look like an authority, but, in the area of just getting your foot in the door, a book can be...

    I recently had a niche idea for a very specific business book that includes specific interviews with elite successful business people. This will include you. I feel that it will help many people toward their personal success.
    I already have some material for it but I still have a long way to go. This of course includes the interviews.
    The problem is that I really hate to write. I vehemently despise it. I like the research, just not the writing aspect.
    It's encouraging to hear that you didn't like writing either.
    I have one potential solution though I don't know it's feasibility yet.... finding a secondary author to cowrite with me.

    Don lock thanks for making me realize what I need to do to get to we're I want to be and to not listen to my old father who constantly says that I'm not smart enough or good enough until I learn from him which is to work full-time wages for years save my money in a 41k and retire at 50 if I'm lucky and need to learn basically gangster like street smarts. While I want to develop my high income skills to get money settled but I tryed to tell him and his response was go to college to get a better paying job and stop with my nonsense for you know nothing of the real world and how it actually works as there are only men who work ("normal" people in his eyes) and men who swindle (the rich and those who retire early in life.) And that I have no chance unless I listen and learn from him. Again thank you for making me realize what I need to do to get ahold of my money and because successful. I will be supporting you by buying your books ( and other peoples that were successful) and develop my high income skills. Maybe even going to one of your personal classes and becoming a student of yours if the future has us meet paths. Again thank you.

    Sifu, just put a web page on one of your websites that shows which books you’ve written, and list them in chronological order.
    Give a brief description of what the book is about under each book.
    And then post the link for that list on the videos that pertain to books and reading.
    Easy way for people who follow your work to find out what you’ve authored, and what they haven’t read yet if they’re going for everything.

    Dan, you're speaking my language... I love self-publishing; it's a killer way to build a brand and authority. It earns passive income and is a great lead generation tool.

    Hey Dan, what happened to the sharp suits ? The casual look is cool but the classy suits simply suit you better, you look like an aristocrat !
    And, we pick up your fashion style while watching your interesting and motivational videos !

    Dan Thank you for this video. I wrote book on my niche but just 50 pages without references, a summary but only introduction, body of content, and conclusion. Please, can I self publish on Amazon? I'm from Nigeria.
