This process isn’t passive — it only occurs when you focus, reflect, and write down your thoughts.

Collins explained the flywheel concept, a metaphor for viewing their strategy, as a virtuous cycle of success that overtime will create tremendous momentum.

I price my products at an affordable rate, make them as valuable as possible, and simply ask people to tell their friends if they enjoyed them. I've found this pricing approach to be just as effective (if not more so) than a money-back guarantee.

This is why I recommend that people price things to be accessible and create a WOM machine. It's easy to
