Vision is not enough, it must be combined with venture. It is not enough to stare up the steps, we must step up the stairs.

Tom Asacker
Tom Asacker (pron. ACE-ACKER) is an amazing thinker and generous author. He writes small, easily understood books that have explosive power to change lives. He freely shares his mind-expanding perspective widely; you can read fascinating examples of his writings below.
His newest book, UNWINDING WANT, is his most liberating yet. He gently guides us to see a tough truth – our conditioning – so that we can escape its power and live a life filled with care and satisfaction.
He has written many books, all well worth the time-investment to read them. THE BUSINESS OF BELIEF is what caught my attention many years ago. The book offered useful conceptual tools to me then that I continue to use today.
How to Be Alive!
A self-guided, free study guide to help you “infuse your life with power and possibility”. Tom presents a way to learn “the most important skill that nobody taught you” through 19 short and powerful videos. Check out How To Be Alive! here.

Mark Manson
“Most of what I write is written for myself, first and foremost. I don’t share these ideas because I think I’m right and other people are wrong. I write them because I think I’m wrong, and correcting my own misjudgments on a public platform seems to help out a lot of other people in the process.”
