My challenge for you this week:
How much money would you like to make this year? I mean, money in your pocket, after taxes, take-home cold hard cash? Set a 7-minute timer and write that amount down at the very top of your sheet of paper. Then, I want you to go into great detail on how that would FEEL to accomplish this goal. What does it look like, sound like, taste like, feel like and even smell like! Go into incredible detail so that anyone reading it could easily imagine it, as well. Then, for extra accountability, I want you to snap a photo of this and share it with me via direct message in Instagram at @thesimplifiers.

About Calvin Wayman
You might know our next guest from Entrepreneur Magazine or the Huffington Post. You may have heard him giving his debt-free scream on The Dave Ramsey Show, or you might know him for his best-selling book Fish Out of Water.
He is one of the most down-to-earth “regular guys” you’ll ever meet, who just dares to dream, feels the fear, but takes action on those dreams anyway.
He’s come from working a day job to a full-time entrepreneur. He went from $53,000 in debt to financial freedom, and he’s gone from being overweight to losing 52 pounds!
He’ll be the first to tell you there’s nothing superhuman about him, and that’s what he showcases. When he hits into brick walls, he documents the downs (as well as celebrates the wins) on his YouTube show, Millionaire Case Study.
His passion is helping others see what’s possible for them, crafting their story they share with the world, and change the relationship they have with fear to live a life beyond their wildest imagination.
He’s also the host of the Top-Rated podcast, Curious with Calvin Wayman.
