Brian here with a quick note. I'm typing this on Saturday morning. I literally
just recorded the first 45+ minutes of the audiobook for my/our book,
Areté: Activate Your Heroic Potential. And I simply couldn't wait to share it with you. So… Here it is! I got a little emotional recording Phil's foreword to the book and then I felt a pure sense of joy as I recorded the first 10 micro-chapters. I could
feel what I hope (!) YOU feel as you read and listen to the book. After my hour+ recording session I came out of the studio and into the kitchen and told Alexandra just how excited I was about the book. Of course, when you go through any creative process, you inevitably have moments when it's not quite coming together the way you want and you question whether it will ever become what you REALLY want your piece of art to become. And, of course, nothing is ever perfect and this won't be the first perfect book (lol) but, as I recorded the first part of the audiobook and as I shared with Alexandra right after I did it... I just felt
really proud of the book, and more importantly REALLY EXCITED to share it with you and your families. So... There ya go. I hope you enjoy the audiobook sample. It's the first 10 micro-chapters of the book. Imagine 451 (!!!!) like that. It's the first 45 minutes of the book. Imagine around 25 more HOURS like that. My goodness, I hope you love it and that we're able to deliver on Phil's promise that this book will change your life. (Yes, you know me. I just got misty typing that.) Here's the other thing I thought of as I recorded that and made the final final final final little polishes to the book before we print the first copy (and 50,000 copies !!) in a couple weeks… I thought of all the people who already bought 25+ copies. Like bricks at a local park built by the community, our book will have the names of the people/families/businesses who supported the creation of it. So… If YOU would like to have YOUR name/your kids'/family's name/your business's name in OUR book… TODAY'S THE DAY!!! We need to know you'd like to be in there and need to know what name(s) you'd like in there NO LATER THAN THIS WEDNESDAY!!! So… If you think you'd like to buy 25+ copies as (holiday!) gifts for your friends and family and colleagues and clients, etc…
PLEASE DO!! And let us know you did it via this quick form:
heroicpbc.typeform.com/preorder I'm so grateful to have your support and so committed to serving you as profoundly as I can while making you proud to be a part of our movement. With love (misty again), courage, wisdom, discipline and eudaimonic joy, I say… HEROES UNITE. It's Day 1. All in. LET'S GO! !! -bri
