About This Book
This book builds three central arguments:
- Your life story, your knowledge, and your message – what you know from experience and want to share with the world – have greater importance and market value than you probably ever dreamed.
- You are here to make a difference in this world, and the best way to do that is to use your knowledge and experience (on any topic, in any industry) to help others succeed.
- You can get paid for sharing advice and how-to information that helps others succeed, and in the process you can build a very lucrative business and a profoundly meaningful life.
- Acronyms – Words
- Acrostics – Sentences
