If you’ve ever had an impulse to write and publish a book, I urge you to act on it.
Not because of the money or visibility. But because of the feeling you’ll get when someone, somewhere, reads your book and then sends you an email like this:
“Dear Steve,
The Radical Leap worked in reverse for me. I quit my job and literally walked out of my 35th floor corner office in downtown and entered the streets of Houston. By night fall I was either going to end up in a bar…or…
Well, I ended up in a book store and ran across The Radical Leap.
This was in 2004 and exactly what I needed to hear at exactly the right time.
I now own several businesses. I do what I love…and I’m working on launching a new web based legal services business next year.”
See what I mean?
Now, that’s the real currency for an author.
Steve,
This is just the advice I needed to hear this evening! Thank you for being so encouraging and backing up your encouragement with a great comment. I will follow your advice and finish up what I have started with “The Knucklehearted Leader” ~ Tom Schulte | Executive Director | Linked 2 Leadership

Steve, As you know, I wrote my first book, “Loyalty is Love: How to Hold Clients Close for Life” last year. Even though I had enormous hopes for monetary rewards, the real rewards have come from reader comments. Thanks for reminding me that once the money has been spent, the accolates and heartfelt thanks live on and on. Writing my book was definitely a ‘radical leap’ for me. Thanks for the encouragement and insight. Beverly
