Tons of professional writers offer consultations (in person, online, or by phone), e-courses, lectures, tutoring, coaching, conference presentations, and workshops in places as diverse as their own living rooms and large auditoriums.

Eventually we reached a tougher-level course with the longest zip-line EVER, and my friend went first to lead the way, with my daughter sandwiched between us.

Best of all, you won’t have to pay $997 for some bloated ebook + video course that takes 40 million hours to get through and bores you half to death. Second, you don’t have a firm grip on your definition of success. There is nothing wrong with material prizes as a definition of success. Don’t let go of this vision.

But on top of that, more selfishly, it felt like the definition of insanity, because I just felt like, who’s even going to field my call right now? I mean, we could definitely debate that from the vantage point that no office should really ever be 100% occupied because it would maybe necessitate not having enough seats for people.
