Tim Grahl knows a thing or two about how to sell books, so when it comes to involving folk in The Successful Mistake (a book I hope at least a few people buy), he’s a man I just had to reach out.
Sharing his #GreatMistake, Tim shares a few valuable nuggets about separating your passion from the purpose you have yo offer, and finding a way to bridge these important traits. A true gem of a chat, and one I’m excited to share with you right now.

IN THIS SESSION, YOU’LL LEARN:
-
Building a business that gets a lot of traffic and publicity doesn’t mean it will gain traction and make money
-
It’s important to figure out what you should be building, as well as actually building something solely on what you love
-
Passion is fantastic, but it needs to have purpose
-
It needs to have that end game of making money, serving a need, reaching enough people…
-
It’s easy to compare yourself to successful people, but you rarely know what their journey to success involved
-
When things aren’t going well, remember that you will soon look back on that moment and appreciate it, learn from it, be in a better place because of it
-
Everyone has moments of despair, no matter how successful they are
-
Appreciate these moments don’t define you – there’s more of your story to come
-
A lot of stress from making mistakes is the perception we have of how other people will feel
-
You can help this by surrounding yourself with the right people, and those who care about you no matter what
-
Trying to build a business on top of your passion can kill your passion
-
It’s not say you shouldn’t be passionate about your business, but it’s important to tread with care
-
Your passion fundamentally needs to solve a problem for people

TODAY’S AWESOME GUEST:

HIS STORY BASED BIO:
When it comes to bumping shoulders with some of the world’s finest authors, Tim Grahl’s your man. As an author myself, I’m in awe of this dude. As a reader, he helps you appreciate the larger journey on offer. In other words, Tim’s one cool cat.
Although spelt differently, I like to imagine he’s related to Dave Grohl (of Nirvana and Foo Fighter fame). Where Dave rocked the music industry, Tim crafted a new path in the land of storytelling and writing. I mean, can you imagine a dinner table at Christmas, surrounded by Dave and Tim? That would be cool, right?
I think so, and I also like to think Tim’s the kind of cat who can help folk like you. He appreciates the nuances of marketing, relationships, and storytelling, and continues to help writers find their readers. A worthy cause? You better believe it!
