efore writing The Pathless Path, I never expected to make money from writing. It was just something I enjoyed doing.

Fate intervened, and the book has reached nearly 70,000 people from around the world. I've been blown away by the response and am confident that I have the coolest readers in the world.

As the book gained attention, many people from the publishing industry took notice. People reached out, offered opinions, and even made offers to republish my work.

But none of these people seemed to care that much about the book or the ideas inside it. They spoke of everything but the book. Speaking gigs. Influential podcasters. Public relations. Low-cost manufacturing in China. Bookstore positioning. Bestseller lists.

Through this, I became convinced that I needed to do something different. I needed to shake things up.

So many people had told me that self-publishing means inferior quality. But was that true?

Challenge accepted.

I realized how much even my own imagination is constrained by what people in fancy offices says is possible or what they think "creativity" should look like. But there has never been fewer limits to what you can create on your own. So for the last eighteen months, I've been slowly working on a special edition of The Pathless Path. We're nearly done. It's sexy. I laught with delight when I look at the mockups.

I can't wait to share it with you.
