This kindness is not so random.

Friend Jeff Noel, Disney Cast Member, Inspirational Speaker, Author, Husband and Father is working to find a cure for an incurable disease, Crohn's Disease. And as he teaches and lives: If your goals aren't impossible then you aren't reaching high enough.

How can you help? You will be glad you asked. Thanksgiving 2013 Jeff published his first book: Mid Life Celebration. And this Valentine's Weekend he is offering a very special challenge and quite the deal.

The details are:
  1. To buy a copy (or as many as possible) or not. If no, the challenge ends.
  2. If yes to getting a copy (copies), to do it now, over Valentine’s Day weekend.

Saturday, will be making an absurd 24 hour offer. Anyone purchasing 17 copies or more (dream big or go home, right?), I'll provide three free books for each one purchased (54 free, collector’s edition galley proofs). 

Insane?

Yes.

Will even cover the shipping in the USA.

The galley proofs are the same book on Amazon, but with a hidden ‘Trinity’ of typos on page 59.

  • Am determined to make this go viral.
  • Feel no pressure to lend a hand, yet know it would be cool to work together.
  • One inspired & generous reader has started a book club, launching with MLC latter this month.

Feeling all it will take over the weekend to get to ‘best-seller status' is selling 50 books.

This designation, even briefly, helps build buzz.

Buzz helps sell more books.

More books helps get speaking gigs. Gigs are were the revenue is generated… money that will help fund a cure.

Make no small plans.

As Jeff says, "Sooner or later it becomes crystal clear. Life is not a dress rehearsal. Live like you mean it."
