How are you faring during this China Virus outbreak? Are you still employed but not sure for how long? Are you waiting for a stimulus check that won’t come during your lifetime? Are you watching as your ability to provide for your family dwindles every day?
If the answer to any of these questions is yes, it might be in your best interest to continue reading this short blog.
On December 11, 2020 I released an hour-long podcast and YouTube video outlining my motivations for the Heinessight 2021 1 Year 1 Million Books Challenge. If you would like to watch that video after you read the blog, I will leave a link below. If you would like to just skip to the video on YouTube just click this link or this one to listen to the podcast only.
What Could Motivate Matthew Heines to
Want to Sell 1 Million Books?
Some say necessity is the mother of invention. Once again, this is age-old bit of wisdom led to the inspiration I had to one day wake up and tell my wife:
“Honey, this year I’m going to sell a million books.”
Deceptions of the Ages: “Mormons” Freemasons and Extraterrestrials
My dear wife, a down-to-earth banker, simply did what she always does when she hears another pre-dawn proclamation of another profit producing product or promotional pattern of presenting my premium books and apparel to the public.
(Paraphrasing)
“How do you plan on producing such positive results?” she asked.
And therein lieth the rub. What would make a paranoid public participate in such an experiment as I was proposing?
American Experiences in Arabia During the War On Terror Series.
Another Year in Oman: Between Iraq and a Hard Place is going to make it easy to sell a million books in Europe and the Middle East.
Killing Time in Saudi Arabia is going to need to make a killing to get us close to our 1 million goal.
