I’m midway through the process of deleting over 3,500 subscribers from my email list.
And paused to share some thoughts about WHY I’m doing this.

My John Counsel Sunday

I spent all the time I was at my computer today studying
things written by John Counsel.
John is one of the original gurus, from a time when the

That’s why I always listen [...]
