Why I created the year of you

I write books, teach people how to finish things, and love helping others get visible. The year of you distills all of that into a short, laser-focused experience: one word, one chapter, one small printed book that helps you focus your next year. It’s intentionally short. It’s intentionally finishable. And it’s intentionally built to push you forward.

What the year of you actually is

At its core, the year of you is a step-by-step guide to make a tiny, meaningful book that captures your focus for the upcoming year. You end with a title, subtitle, cover, dedication, one-word chapter, epigraph, preface from the present, and an epilogue written from the future.

• Duration: Most participants finish the core elements in 1–3 hours.
• Outcome: A short printed book that represents your next-year focus.
• Purpose: Clarity, momentum, and a portable statement of intention.

The secret ingredient: the epilogue from the future

The epilogue is the single most powerful part of the year of you. You write from one year in the future, looking back at the year you just lived. Start with “What a year.” Then describe the accomplishments, the small wins, the shifts. Write in the past tense as if you’ve already done it. That future-to-present framing rewires how you plan, act, and show up.

How the process works (step-by-step)

1. Find your one word—your guiding intention for the year.
2. Create a simple title and subtitle that reflect that focus.
3. Draft the preface (present you) and the epilogue (future you).
4. Design a quick cover—ten minutes is enough.
5. Publish a short print run (I’ll show you free tools to format and publish).
6. Share the finished book and your story.

The whole point is small, finishable steps that build confidence. This is a stepping stone project—short enough to finish, powerful enough to shift how you show up for the next thing.

Why I’m offering it (and why it’s free for now)

I want your case study. I want your testimonial. I want your success story. For me, your finished book and your story are worth far more than any fee. So I offer entry to the year of you for free when you use the coupon code I share. It’s a true win-win-win: you win, I win, and the audience watching your interview also wins.

How participating gets you on my channel or podcast

Finish the year of you book, send me your cover and the completed elements, and we’ll book you for an on-camera conversation. On the show we’ll talk about the process (how the one-word book helped), and we’ll touch on your story and what you’re building next. I won’t turn the episode into a hard sell for your offering—we’ll focus on the journey and the lessons.

Who this is for

• People who want clarity and momentum for the next year.
• Creators who need a small, finishable project to build confidence.
• Anyone who wants a fast path to share their story on a platform.

What I expect from you

Do the work. Finish the small book. Be willing to share your experience honestly. Your testimonial and case study will help others understand how simple, focused action creates change.

Examples and quick wins

Participants often finish a usable book in a couple of hours. A typical outcome: title, subtitle, cover, one-word chapter, preface, epilogue, acknowledgements, and an author note written as your future self. These tiny books become anchors for choices and habits across the coming year.

FAQ

No. I’ll show you simple ways to create a clean, effective cover in about ten minutes using free tools.

Is the program really free?

Yes—right now you can use the coupon code winwinwin to get in for free. I’m more interested in your outcome and story than a payment.

What will we discuss on the show?

We’ll discuss your experience with the year of you process—how you chose your word, the impact of writing from the future, and what you’re working on next. It’s conversational, encouraging, and designed to spotlight your journey.

Final note

The year of you is short, intentional, and built to help you do one thing: finish something meaningful that moves you forward. If you’re the type of person who shows up, does the work, and wants to share what you learn, this project will give you clarity, a printed artifact, and a chance to tell your story to a wider audience.
