Finding Your Chief Aim and Making Your Impact

  • Summary

  • 1% of people have impact

    99% barely make a ripple

    If you’re like most people with an idea they want to share, you’ve been collecting all kinds of publishing and marketing “checklists” and “how to publish” reports.  That information is pretty easy to find.

    Our clients are a little different.  They want more than to just write and publish a book. They want to make an impact. Maybe you relate to this?

    You’ve got a wish, a hope, a snarled up frustrated feeling in your gut that you’ve got something important to share with the world.  You watch other people do it.  Maybe you even hear other people say things that you know you could say better…but you never act on it. 

    Here’s a powerful piece of intelligence we’ve dispensed to our clients over and over again during our combined 60 years in publishing and visibility coaching.  Until you know why you’re here on the planet - that ONE thing that you were born to do and give to the world - you won’t be ready to share your message with the world.

    Napoleon Hill, the great American self-help writer, called this your “Chief Aim.”  Successful influencers - writers, podcasters, speakers - know how to activate their own initiative, because they know where they are headed before they start.

    Pretty much any good publisher and visibility coach can help you meet your goals.  An exceptional publisher and visibility coach will help you push towards that dream that takes your breath away and helps you fulfill the true purpose (the really, really BIG one) of why you’re here. That’s what we live for.  Helping you fulfill your “Chief Aim” is our “Chief Aim.”

    Look, we’ve written books with newborn babies sleeping in our laundry baskets at our feet while sucking on strong coffee to stay awake.  We’ve written books when our elderly parents needed extensive support and care.  We’ve written books from scratch in less than three weeks after losing the entire original manuscript file on our computer. We’ve written best-selling books, launched podcasts, given TedX talks, while homeschooling our children during a pandemic. We’ve written books, spoken on podcasts, given talks on global stages, while raising teenagers.  We’ve written books, hosted podcasts, given talks on global stages while running million dollar companies and simultaneously getting dinner on the table for our families.

    When you know your Chief Aim, your excuses don’t win.  You do it anyway. 


    We can get you published, produce your podcast, or get you up on stage - no problem.  (We have all of that “in house” and a team of the world’s leading experts who can help you get to the top of bestseller lists, get your Voice out into the world, and help you craft a powerful signature talk.) The tactics and techniques to do this are pretty boiler plate and there are a lot of good people out there who can help you with this. 

    But the one thing we do best, is help you find your Chief Aim so that your very presence in a room creates impact. 

    Here’s a powerful next right step for you.  Go to our website, www.gracepointpublishing.com and schedule a call with our Publishing Consultant.  Together, you’re going to craft a powerful plan to get your message out into the world.  So you can meet your Chief Aim - and do what you came here to do.
