Publisher's summary

Get out of your own way, and bring your ideas to life!

Exactly Where to Start is a playbook for everyone with a great idea, everyone with a goal in mind, and everyone with a specific destination but no journey. We’ve been told all our lives that “good things come to those who wait” - but that’s a myth. Good things come to those who do. Too often, we get stuck in the “getting ready” stage: research, analysis, brainstorming, and more research; we feel like we need to know everything there is to know about what we want to do before we ever take the first steps. Meanwhile, the people who actually go out and do the thing are taking risks, learning lessons, and making strides toward their goals every single day. Isn’t it time you joined them?

This book coaches you through the journey with precise, actionable steps that help you take that all-important first leap and keep the momentum going. Discard the distractions, break through the overwhelm, and get going for real with this real-world blueprint for turning your vision into reality. Snap yourself out of “analysis paralysis”. Stop thinking you need to know everything before you even begin. Make those big decisions and focus in on your goals. Chart your journey’s path, and get up and get started today.

Many of us have fallen into a trap: We no longer believe that “anything is possible”, yet we are surrounded by proof that everything is possible! But we are distracted, harried, overwhelmed, and maybe a little intimidated. Our dreams remain forever in limbo, and we may go to our graves before we venture beyond the “planning stage”. Don’t let that happen - don’t you deserve to realize your goals? Exactly Where to Start gives you the kick in the pants and the practical plan you need to stand up, step up, and make it happen.

Here right here is where you start

I appreciate the author for writing this book. I wish I read it decades ago as it would have helped me start earlier.

The better time to start is right now whilst reading the book. Do the exercises as you are prompted to and you would have already started.

So grab the book I and start now

Literally tells you exactly where to start

I love that there are small, completely doable action steps at the end of each chapter! It’s short, to the point, full of real info without all the frills and clichés you hear everywhere else.

Very useful

Love the book. I understand that you want to keep the book action oriented. However I would love to see more examples. Examples helps us visualize how to put your advice into action for ourselves. It’s a great companion to your first book, exactly what to say. Thx.

Masterpiece

First I'd like to thank the author for everything. That book is another masterpiece of Phil M Jones who became my model. The moment I listened to him ones I then went to his website and didn't stop reading, listening and watching for hours. And now I am reading his guide books. Even if you already started on action, Phil M Jones with his honest way renders and vanishes your vision.

Quick listen with some easy actionable steps

This is well worth a listen as its only an hour and a half and Phil has some great questions to ask yourself that help move out of the planning and into the action phase.

Extremely Helpful!

I found this short book very easy to listen to. I really love Phil's voice in a learning environment (I have multiple publications of his). I also enjoy his teaching style as it matches my own. This book is great for anyone with a big idea or even transitioning to a new career and need a short road map on where or how to get started. I like clear steps that can be easily followed and Phil provides that beautifully.
