The title of my book Think Big, Start Small, Scale Fast comes straight from my Daily Inspiration series, one of which you are reading right now. By my count, this is post 1,946 in this series which I began writing early in August 2016. Have I ever mentioned that I have not missed one workday post since then? (I have, and I have not!)
How did this book come about? What does it actually cover?
-----
It is a story of inspiration, observation and transformation.
I’ve been speaking to organizations around the world for well over 25 years about the future and the attitudes and actions that can help us to turn it into a world of opportunity.
Somewhere along the way, I came to realize that this unique experience, a life on the stage, had provided me with some very unique insights into how people try to deal with a world of massive change and challenge.
In late July 2016, through a variety of colliding circumstances, the opportunity to focus my thinking into a message of hope and inspiration took on a life of its own. Since that moment in time, I have started each and every workday, without fail, very early in the morning, with my coffee, my laptop, and a moment of quiet reflection. They are a critical part of a very important journey, that of painting a picture of hope and optimism each and every day for what the day might bring.
These observations - usually inspirational, sometimes controversial - are layered on top of a photo where I had appeared on stage and then shared with people via my social networks.

Given the subtitle Stories from the Stage on Disruption, Transformation and the Accelerating Future, the book features several of what I considered to be some of my most powerful Daily Inspiration posts, rewritten to emphasize the story behind the stage picture used for the quote.
