How to Try Again

After 4+ years of work, Steve’s new book, How to Try Again, is on bookshelves everywhere! In case you’re new to this email list, Steve is the founder of Nerd Fitness, and stepped back from NF to spend the last few years writing it. I was lucky enough to be a small part of Steve’s writing process. I got to jam with him about behavior change, provide feedback on his opening chapters, and heck, one of my stories even made it into Chapter 3! So obviously, my opinion is COMPLETELY UNBIASED. But the truth is, this book hits close to home. It’s full of honest and helpful advice that mirrors what we talk about at Nerd Fitness, but that I also needed to hear. Each time I’ve read a new version, a different part of the book jumped out to me. The stories about the Wall of Failure and treading water, in particular, really stuck with me. And the line about the caterpillar and War & Peace lives rent free in my brain. (You’ll know it when you get there.) I recently had the chance to hang with Steve last week for a conference out in Boise! If you’re ready for a compassionate approach to behavior change that will have you laughing as much as you are jotting notes in the margins, please grab a copy this week. Without further delay, here’s the Rebel Leader himself, Steve! We did it! Holy crap we did it. Four years ago, I took a big step back from Nerd Fitness to start work on a project that changed my life. I lived a lifetime (and went through chaos) while writing it.
