It’s Monday morning, 8:20am. You got in late. You’re a little jet-lagged but you’re not worried about it. With bullet-proof coffee in hand and the lingering whiffs of the most ah-mazing conference lingering in your mind, you’re ready.


Ping. “Just a sec” you think. “I’ll just scan my emails really quick before I get to changing my world.”


9 hours later, the whiffs have evaporated. What happened? Where did my day/week/month/quarter/year go?


Worse yet, as you wander around discouraged, disoriented and unclear about what exactly hijacked your day, the depression hits you: All that great stuff you learned happened in a vacuum and now all you can think is that you suck.



It doesn’t have to be this way and it’s not your fault (but it is your responsibility).



The truth is most conferences are broken. As I deepen in the conversation around merging creativity with business, primarily through the Converge Podcast, one thing has crystallized: People need help and the current offerings aren’t working.


Don’t hear me wrong. It’s not that there aren’t plenty of fantastic (no kidding) resources out there giving world changing content on how to hone skill and learn solid business practices. There are! We have more extraordinary content available than ever before… at our finger tips… often for free.




But how do you integrate those insights into real life?
What do you do when the program or event that changed everything comes and goes?
What do you do when the reality of Monday morning arrives and it’s time to get to work?


We think we have the answer. There’s a lot to say about why we think GO is different – which is why we dedicated an entire website to tease out why The Converge Summit – in beautiful Newport Beach, California – is the game changer we all need to make 2015 unprecedented. If this is a make or break year for you, you need to know two things…



The dates for GO are January 8 – 10, 2015.
You need to educate yourself on why GO will give you an unfair advantage by  clicking here .

GO: The Converge Summit is a gathering of creatives committed to the exploration of mindset, method and the business of creativity. It’s not just about coming to an event to be inspired by amazing speakers. That’s necessary of course, but entirely insufficient.


What’s exciting is we engineered our summit not just for what happens when you’re with us, but for what happens when you’re home. We think we solved the Monday morning problem and we want to let you in on it.


If your curious and want to learn more, go to our new GO site: convergesummit.com and decide for yourself. Seats are limited.


I hope you’ll consider joining us for 2015.
