The One Thing

Lead with your story. Then, leverage your story.

• In Part 1, you show the journey of your transformation and meet the reader where they are.
• In Part 2, you teach them how to transform in the way you have, how to get to where you are now.
• In Part 3, you paint a vision of the far-out horizon of this path — all you and the reader could possibly achieve and the life you could live if you commit to this journey.
