What advice do he has for children? What do you do to encourage them to be creative and to have a live where they Choose Themselves. You can't just tell your kids to do something and expect them to do it. You have to show them. You have to lead by example. You have to be honest, authentic, fair but firm. You can try challenging your kids. Find those things that interest them and give them some tools to push these to the next level. Think of ways to do it when you're together, just hanging out. Make a game out of it.
James gives us a few examples. |

Claudia is about to jump into Ask Altucher and forgets the question. It’s too funny. How often have we all done this? I know I do it almost daily. Anyway…Lindsay emailed us a great question. “I want to change, but I don’t know what my passion is?” James jumps right in, questioning whether or not passion alone is enough to be successful. He suggests that you should rite down what interests you—no limits just start writing. The next step is to start combining these ideas and see what happens. Don’t be disappointed if you try one or two things that fail. The technique is to try 10 or 20. Just keep trying.
And in today’s Second Segment, James gives us some writing tips. He discusses how to utilize “the cliffhanger”. |

James interrupts Claudia from her daily yoga routine to bring you today's Ask Altucher question. On our sister show, The James Altucher Show, James interviewed Peter Thiel. It was one of James' best interviews, and if you've not listened to it yet, click here. Claudia asks James, "What's the one thing that Peter said that caused the biggest impression on you, the ONE thing" If you're going to start a business, something really new and innovative, then be 10 times better than your competitor. James takes this idea and expands it into everything you should do in your daily life. 20% better is not enough; you have to blow away the completion...
And in today's second segment, James tells us what makes for a great interview. You can learn a lot by practicing some of these techniques in whatever you do. |

Today James and Claudia host expert book promoter Michael Drew. While James is a huge proponent of self-publishing he wanted Michael to explain to you the other side of the story.
According to Michael, self published books, right or wrong will never make The New York Times bestselling book list. With an impressive track record, which he says includes “80 books out of 80 books onto national bestseller lists”, Michael Drew is THE authority on how to turn your book into a bestseller. He knows all the tricks and while you may not think they’re fair, they are what they are. “Creating a best seller is 90% knowledge, secrets and timing, and only about 10% great book. The crazy thing…very few people in the publishing industry understand that.”
