100,000 Copies Sold: My Long-Term Goals for the Building a Second Brain Book
We recently crossed the astounding milestone of 100,000 copies sold of my book Building a Second Brain!
That’s just in the US and UK, and over the next few months, it will go on sale in 20+ other countries and languages around the world.
I have to be honest: every goal that I ever imagined for this book has been fulfilled. I feel a little dumbfounded and very much in awe that we’ve reached the limits of my imagination just 10 months after its release.
I sat down recently to brainstorm a list of 20 “ridiculous” new goals for the next chapter of the book’s life. I have no idea how many of these might come to pass, and many of them are honestly purely vanity goals, but they are meaningful to me nonetheless.
