A quick post, and a quick update.
- You can now pre-order Phenomenal: The Self-Fulfilling Prophecy.
- We've set a new target release date.
- We've got a status report below.
- We're making some changes to the offer.
I'm happy to report that things are moving along nicely. When you commit yourself to a project and really dig in your heels, the most amazing discovery is that you'll invariably surprise even yourself.

Long ago, I said one of the most ridiculous lines in the history of teen comedy movies. (The line was the title of this article).
Funny enough, I've always been shy about it. I've never talked or written about it until right now. I always glossed over it, half pretending it never happened, always aiming to position myself as something more highbrow than that.

Dear Jeff,
Nobody cares.
They just don't give a damn about what you're doing.
But here's a secret: They're right not to.
I know, I know. You have moments of fear and frustration. You're putting in all this work — creating thought-provoking articles that tie into a larger picture.
Doesn't matter. Nobody cares.

You are capable of extraordinary things.
But if you haven't yet achieved those extraordinary things, it's because there's one survival skill you haven't mastered yet:

This blog is called The Phenomenal Experience. Let's make it worthy of its title. Let's raise the stakes.
In the previous post, I showed you how to accurately predict the future.

by Jeff Bollow

Human beings live a linear existence. We travel in one direction through time — from the past, through the present, toward the future.
So conventional wisdom says that the future is impossible to predict. Its says the future is unknowable because it’s not here yet.
Conventional wisdom is wrong.
