Hello Everyone,

(Cover Photo: Taking the time to make great pottery)

It's too easy to just be ok with how certain things are. To make it sound like its ok just the way it is and we don't need to make that extra effort to achieve more.

I had published my most recent ebook and it hit #11. That made it an Amazon Bestseller.

Well I have had 62 Amazon Bestsellers that I am aware of and 10 that were #1.

So it was an, Oh ok, that's nice kind of achievement and I was willing to settle with that.

Then you'll see in the below post that Kyle suggested it could get into the Top 10.

I thought about it for awhile and because the ebook directly addressed my Publishing Empire that I am continuing to build, I realized it was more than important to have it be #1

So I worked some more magic and Boom, it achieved #1 status and I am so proud and happy for doing that.

So instead of Ho Hum, I didn't settle with just a #11 ebook. I took it all the way in.

This is a very important lesson for me.

Why bother if we aren't going to follow thru and do our best?

I Vow to do better going forward!

To Our Success!

Mel Waller
