After 4+ years of work, Steve’s new book, How to Try Again, is on bookshelves everywhere!

In case you’re new to this email list, Steve is the nerd who started Nerd Fitness in 2009, and stepped back from NF to spend the last few years writing it!)

I was lucky enough to be a small part of Steve’s writing process. I got to jam with him about behavior change, provide feedback on his opening chapters, and heck, one of my stories even made it into Chapter 3!

So obviously, my opinion is COMPLETELY UNBIASED. 😜

But the truth is, this book hits close to home.

It’s full of honest and helpful advice that mirrors what we talk about at Nerd Fitness, but that I also needed to hear.

Each time I’ve read a new version, a different part of the book jumped out to me. The stories about the Wall of Failure and treading water, in particular, really stuck with me (and I think they will for you, too.)

And the line about the caterpillar and War & Peace lives rent free in my brain. 😂 (You’ll know it when you get there.)

If you’re ready for a compassionate approach to behavior change that will have you laughing as much as you are jotting notes in the margins, please grab a copy this week.

Without further delay, here’s the Rebel Leader himself, Steve!

We did it! Holy crap we did it.

Four years ago, I took a big step back from Nerd Fitness to start work on a project that changed my life.

I lived a lifetime (and went through chaos) while writing it.

How to Try Again is FINALLY here.

Starting today, you can visit HowtoTryAgain.com and order your copy in 3 different formats – hardcover, ebook, and audio – from wherever you like in the US, Canada, and Italy today.

(If you’re in the UK, Ireland, South Africa, India, Australia and New Zealand: it hits bookstores in your country on Thursday, but you can still order today!)

I’ve been publishing a free weekly newsletter for the past 17 years, and this book is the culmination of that effort. If you’ve enjoyed my writing, chuckled at my bad jokes, and felt less alone in this world because of my writing…

I’m asking you to buy this book TODAY.

This is such a fun week for me, and I’m currently flabbergasted by the support. (A+ word, by the way, I need to say it more).

Thank you for being here with me.

I went through the most challenging years of my life while writing this book (I tell that story in the introduction).

Hell, I’m still going through it.

But I’m here. And so are you.

We can build on this!

This is the hardest I’ve ever worked on any project. It taught me way more about myself than I was expecting. I had plenty of late nights, early mornings, and really tough months to get this across the finish line…

And I wouldn’t have it any other way.

This is what I am meant to be doing.

I wrote the crap out of this book.

I hope you can support my work, but no problem if you can’t! I’m so lucky I get to write for a living and share my weird thoughts with the world, and that’s all because of people like you. Thanks for being a fellow fallible human, and thank you for your support.

It means more than you realize.

Let’s have a fun launch week, deal?

-Steve
