Find Your Opportunity in Times of Chaos

— March 31, 2021 — Business
The next few years are going to be one of the most exciting creative period in modern history! The Roaring 20s emerged from the Spanish Flu. The Renaissance Period Emerged from the Black Death. When human beings get through the current phase (crisis) and emerge into 2021/2022 (chaos), we will be in a period of rapid change. Every consumer will be rethinking about what is important to them, more open to new ideas, and experiencing life to its fullest. Now is the time to prepare!

If you are looking to find your big idea in this time of chaos, now is a great time to read: CREATE THE FUTURE - Tactics for Disruptive Thinking. I'm re-introducing it because the book just picked up an Axiom International Book Award.

The premise: You are capable of more than you think, and yet there are so many different paths in life you could take. The problem is that chaos CREATES opportunity, but we are all held back by 7 Traps that block us from disruptive thinking. By understanding how to overcome these traps, you can liberate your creativity, your ability to lead, and your ability to make opportunistic change happen.

The chaos of 2021 is YOUR window of opportunity. This is when you can make it to the next level, or end up disrupted. Don't miss out! The book, which is my life's work, and meant to be an inspiring guidebook for disruptive thinking, innovation, and finding opportunity in chaos.

If you are ready to turn the gloom of 2020 into the light of 2021+, now is the time to take the next step in your future. Join 40,000+ readers unlocking their potential and find your ideal path. You can do this!

"Without a doubt, this is one of the BEST books on sparking ideas that I have ever read."
- Jack Covert, Founder of CEO Read
