I just thought to include the greetings of today’s email, because it reminded me of (Good Deal) Dave Berke and his book (which I have yet to read and review) Need to Lead… 😉 Greetings and welcome to the Day Six of the Ultimate Blog Challenge! I have the need… The need for speed! We…
Ultimate Blog Challenge, April 2026: Day 5
Easter Sunday, so I posted about that instead of what was suggested: https://copytestprove.com/happy-easter-sunday-2026/ One Piece of Advice What is a subject or activity you have a lot of knowledge around? If you were giving your 1 best tip to someone brand new to that subject or activity, what would you tell them? What do you…
Ultimate Blog Challenge, April 2026: Day 4
There are a lot of good topics to write about, and maybe I will for this site because none of these really fit the theme of my other site: Today I am changing the phrase! You probably heard the expression, “Bad news comes in threes.” We don’t like to be negative, so since this is…
Ultimate Blog Challenge, April 2026: Day 3
Today’s idea – Share a book review! This one can work for any blog. For personal bloggers, review a book your readers would connect with. Maybe it’s a cookbook, a novel, or a non-fiction book like an autobiography. For business bloggers, choose a book that shows you keep up with your industry and it’ll help…

I’ve Got a Bad Case of Tsundoku
I was listening to my backlog of the Sketchplanations Podcast and came across the one about Tsundoku. Art by Jono Hey, who I already wrote about here: https://peoplegettingafterit.com/meeting-up-with-someone-who-gets-after-it/ And I realized that I have quite a lot of books that I haven’t finished over the years. This one in particular: Jocko, don’t look down on…
Happy Birthday to ME!!! (Whatever…)
Unfortunately, I have been on a slippery slope the last few months, but getting back on the PATH!
Honest Review: DEF Reset vs 75Hard
I was asked by three different people if I had participated in either of these programs, and the answer’s yes! DEF Reset is a program run by Jocko Willink and the team at JockoFuel. 75Hard is run by Andy Frisella at 1st Phorm. TL;DR – Though they are similar and the end result might be…
