Happy Wednesday, Reader!

Last year, I released my first-ever children's book. I've been reading it at some of my speaking events, and I'm finding the message lands as well with grown-ups as it does with kids!

It's been such a hit that we'll need to re-print more soon. Since it makes a great gift, I wanted to give you a heads-up in case you want to grab some copies before this run sells out. As a reminder, the book includes a QR code at the end that links to fun bonus features, including process videos for each illustration and my "Making of The Penguin Who Flew" video diary.

We also just introduced a brand new Marty the Penguin pillow! At 10 inches tall and super soft, he makes a great companion (or a follow-up gift for those you already gave books to!).

"I read the book to one of my kinder classrooms. ♥️They loved it so much, I bought each of them a copy. They especially enjoy searching for the 'hearts.' So did I! You made their day! I wish I’d captured their little faces when I opened the box! Thank you, thank you, thank you!" —Kerry
"The book was absolutely DELIGHTFUL. Really....I've read a lot of kids' books lately, lol, and that one was so cute and fun to read. Natalie loved it! We will be reading it a bunch and feel so special to have a signed copy." —Brenda

Stay young and stay fun,

On a mission to help people break free from Adultitis to build better lives, businesses, and teams.

I am a professional reminder-er and permission granter who moonlights as an artist, author, professional speaker, and publisher of The Adultitis Fighter, which helps people create lives filled with adventure, meaning, and joy. I enjoy Star Wars, soft t-shirts, and brand new tubes of paint. My wife Kim and I homeschool our three weird kids and live in Wisconsin, where we eat way too many cheese curds.

Greetings from Sheboygan, where I'm adjusting to the darker days and continuing with NOvember, a series of short, simple reflections on the art of saying no. The Cheshire Cat was right. If you don't know where you're going, any road will get you there. We live in an aimless age, partly due to a disordered view of priorities. The word "priority" comes from the Medieval Latin...

Greetings from Sheboygan, where I've decided to spend this month writing about the best productivity tip around. Welcome to NOvember, a series of short, simple reflections on the art of saying no. You don’t have to be a “people pleaser” to hate saying no. Most people dislike it. Let's face it, delivering a no is usually less enjoyable than a yes. Unfortunately, the warm,...
