When you watch a morning show, you get that good vibe feeling to start your day, but being in studio today with the crew @breakfasttelevision it was electrifying.
Thank you for having me on this morning to talk about Bragging Rights @sid_seixeiro @meredithshaw @ontariokevin @janinapalhares and all the lovely crew.
Bragitude in action (brag + gratitude)
🧐 no, I didn't just make that up, other researchers coined it, I just like it.
I'll share a link to the segment when it is up.
p.s. thanks for the photo @kristitnt - glad you were watching. taken in Toronto, Ontario by @thatlisabragg

A room full of wealth advisors fact-checked me.

The night before my keynote in Calgary, I met half the room at the client reception. I was wearing this red suit.

Next morning, mid-talk, I said: "No one remembers yesterday. I can't even remember what I wore yesterday."

Turns out… they remembered.

After the talk, a line of advisors came up to correct me. One woman said she nearly jumped out of her chair to yell, "THE RED SUIT!"

People DO remember yesterday. They just remember what stands out.

So I will be wearing the red suit again. taken in Calgary, Alberta by @thatlisabragg

As we share Dad wisdom today on Father’s Day, my dad would tell me in calls before I went on to anchor the news or cover a story, “Sparkle, Lisa, sparkle.”

It was something Shirley Temple’s mother Gertrude, would tell the American children star before she went on stage, or the cameras rolled.

I still think of that advice before I go on stage or hit record. by @thatlisabragg

You were told, "Put your head down, do good work, and eventually someone will notice you."

The advice wasn't wrong. It was just designed for a world that no longer exists.

How do you become a top nonfiction author? I learned 7 amazing tips at a lunch in Toronto with @pagetwo_books authors.

Think of your book as a Netflix comedy special. Perfect your material first by doing “open mic nights” (share your ideas in articles, etc.) - @lianedavey

Don’t write the first chapter first - it’s the hardest! Start with chapter 3 or 7 and then come back to it later. @bruce.mayhew

Develop a long-form writing habit to crystallize your ideas and find your voice. @cerebralselling

Prepare to market your book for the very long term. @thatlisabragg

Stack the deck in your favor and build a team if you work better collaboratively. @shedinspires

Create your followers intentionally by sharing your ideas early and gathering feedback - Bill G. Williams

And a bonus tip from Tessa Eisenberg, Page Two’s acquisitions lead: Don’t underestimate the importance of reviews. Plan a strategy in advance to get them.

Share this with your friends who are authors or aspiring authors!

"... change happens as a result of intensity and then maintained by consistency." Those words were written for me. I'm great at the intensity part (likely honed by my days as a broadcast journalist), but it's the consistency part that trips me up again and again.
Thanks @itscoachgoodman Goodman for sending me a copy of your remarkable book Unhinged Habits: A Counterintuitive Guide for HUMANS to Have More by Doing Less. by @thatlisabragg
