1,000 Books. Zero Output.

Dear Friend,

I want to tell you a story about a recent conversation I had with a prospective Write to Freedom member. I want to tell you this story because I believe it illustrates an important point that could change your life.

This gentleman claimed to have read over 1,000 books. Now, this is impressive, but not unheard of. Many avid readers can reach this milestone with dedicated reading. But what stuck with me most wasn't the number of books he'd read. It was what he hadn't done...

He Had Written NOTHING!

Not a single article. Not one blog post. Not even a tweet storm. Nada. Zilch. Zero. I could tell this person was highly intelligent, and yet without any output, he was extremely frustrated. When I asked him why he hadn't written anything, his response floored me, "I'm waiting until I'm ready."

Listen: This man's brain was constipated. You could feel the sludge in his mind churning away——seemingly begging to be released into the world. He had consumed so much information, but he hadn't converted it into knowledge. He hadn't put it out into the world. And here's the most important thing I may ever be able to teach you...

There Will Never Be a “Right Time”

There will always be a great reason not to write a book. There will always be a million great reasons not to write a great book. You may never feel truly ready. Because the only way to feel confident you could write a book is to actually write a book!

You see, this gentleman had fallen into a trap. A trap I like to call the Growth Mindset Paradox. He was so focused on learning, on growing, on consuming information, that he forgot the most crucial step: contribution. But here's where it gets interesting. When you switch to a contribution mindset, everything changes.

Suddenly, all that information you've consumed starts to become relevant. It becomes much easier to remember what you've read because you realize it could be of value to someone else. Your entire life gets better because you know that what you're writing could dramatically change someone's life. And weirdly, certain books almost start to glow. You feel like a golden thread is pulling you forward into new books.

This is the power of the contribution mindset. It's not just about what you know——it's about how you use what you know to help others.

When you start writing, when you start sharing your knowledge, you're not just regurgitating information. You're creating connections. You're synthesizing ideas. You're generating new insights that could change someone's life. You may even have genius level insights that transform the world for years to come.

And the most ironic part is——by focusing on contribution——you end up growing even more than you would by just consuming information.

Listen: The most important thing you can do if you want to be an independent writer, creator, thinker is to start writing. Not tomorrow. Not when you feel "ready." But now.

And that's exactly what I show you how to do in my writing incubator, Write to Freedom. I don't just teach you how to write——I show you how to develop this contribution mindset and turn what you're writing into a fantastic living.

In Write to Freedom, we focus on taking action. We focus on output. Because at the end of the day, it's not about how many books you've read——it's about how many lives you've impacted with your words.

I've seen people transform their lives through this program. I've watched as they've gone from consuming information to creating real knowledge. From reading endlessly to writing prolifically. From dreaming about making a living as a writer to actually doing it. And here's the thing...

You Can Do It Too!

You don't have to read 1,000 books——although you will probably read more than that and love every single minute of it. You don't need to be a genius. You just need to be willing to start. To take that first step. To write that first word.

Because once you start——once you shift from consumption to contribution——everything changes. Your perspective shifts. Your confidence grows. And yes, your bank account can grow too.

In Write to Freedom, I take you by the hand and walk you through every step of the process. I show you how to take all that knowledge you've accumulated and turn it into something valuable. Something people will pay for every single month.

I would like to personally work with you and help you create, launch, and monetize your knowledge such that you are making a minimum of $12,000 per year guaranteed, and I won't stop working with you until I get you there. Furthermore, I will then give you the roadmap to scale to $20,000 per month and beyond.

So, my friend, I ask you: Are you stuck in the Growth Mindset Paradox? Are you waiting until you're "ready" to start writing, to start sharing, to start contributing? If so, I have news for you. You're ready now. You've always been ready.

And I'm here to help you take that first step.

I've created a detailed 44-minute video that reveals every step of this powerful business model. It's the same model that took me to generating over $400,000 per month with an Analog Knowledge Business.

There is only one day left to enroll. After that, you will not hear me talking about Write to Freedom until enrollment opens again next month. Watch the video now and take the first step towards turning your knowledge into a thriving business:

After watching, we can have a friendly, casual discussion about any questions you have. If it's a fit, great. If not, great——but at least you'll be educated about the best business model out there for independent thinkers and creators like yourself.

I have two spots available. This isn't some mass-market program where I dump a bunch of videos on you and wish you luck. I personally dedicate significant time to each person I work with. That means I can only take on a handful of new students at a time.

Don't let another day go by without taking action. Don't be the person who's read 1,000 books but written nothing. Be the person who changes lives with their words.

Warm regards,

And always remember,

To stay crispy, my friend.

P.S. This email is going out to over 21,000 people now. I have limited spots to work with me in my writing incubator, because I personally dedicate a significant amount of time to each and every person I work with to ensure their success. The current enrollment closes down in just one day! I have only two spots available at the time of this writing!

Therefore, if you would like me to help you live your dream lifestyle and make six figures writing one thing a month——then here is a detailed video that shows you everything:
