Education of Millionaires Review (and Important Takeaways)

I read a great book recently.

There’s a lot of great information in there – information that can make you more successful in business.

I can’t wait to share what I learned with you.

It’s called The Education of Millionaires: It’s Not What You Think and It’s Not Too Late. Michael Ellsberg is the author. He’s the son of Pentagon Papers whistleblower Daniel Ellsberg and a regular contributor to Forbes magazine. (If you sign up for his email list, you can download a free preview of the book.)

This book chronicles his transformation from an unemployed, depressed writer who lived with his parents to a successful entrepreneur.

Michael had all the credentials. An Ivy-league diploma and a prep school pedigree. Everything conventional wisdom tells us we need to enjoy material success in the “real world.”

Business Tips Booster Pack (4 Free Resources)

Corey Pemberton

This one will be short but sweet.

I want to make sure you’re getting the most value I can possibly give you.

To that end, here are my 4 favorite business tips for this week.

No, these tips aren’t mine. They come from all over the place.

My only filter for them (and it’s a big one), is I limit the info to people whose professional success inspires me. Helps cut down on information overload.

Success leaves clues . . . so I’m always on the look out for useful information.

Why Do You Deserve Business Success?

Corey Pemberton

Why do you deserve business success?

Maybe you’ve never asked yourself this directly.

But think about it for a minute. Really think about it . . . before you launch into a laundry list of “reasons why.”

Was your initial reaction one of anger? Disbelief? Maybe a combination of the two?

If you’re anything like me it was!

Do you truly BELIEVE you deserve success in your business?

Men’s Health May 2013: Build Muscle, Write Better Headlines

Corey Pemberton

What do you get when you combine a psychopathic knight from HBO’s Game of Thrones and a list of some (mostly) awesome headlines?

Why, the Men’s Health May 2013 cover of course!

You might have seen my Cosmo headline case studies for the past two months. April is here and March is here.

Well, I decided to change up the subject of May’s case study to give you a flavor of how a different magazine uses headlines to catch readers’ eyes at the newsstand.

Despite targeting a completely different demographic, Men’s Health relies on the same headline principles as the people over at Cosmo to make readers intrigued enough to read their articles.

Is Your Business Stressful? (I Hope So)

Corey Pemberton

I love stress.

It’s taken me 27 years to get to this point.

I used to try and avoid it whenever I could (hint: you can’t). My creativity knew no bounds when it came to dreaming up ingenious new ways to stay away from any potentially stressful situation.

But it just doesn’t work like that. Stress happened. No matter how much I wanted to forget about it, it found a way to pop up again like a creepy celebrity stalker.

Stress happens whether you like it or not… but it doesn’t have to be a bad thing.

It’s been a long road, but I’ve come to love my persistent admirer.
