Celebrate your victories even when it hurts.

Welcome everyone, this is 5 Minute Friday.

I am in the Denver Airport right now taking a red eye to Montreal from my book tour.

Yesterday I just got the word that I became a New York Time bestselling author.

Number 3 to be exact on the advice how to list for the New York Times list.

And it's been an eight year journey that came true.

You know it was one of the most incredible feelings to feel full circle.

Something I dreamed of, visualized, walked into Barnes & Noble every single week for the

last eight years.

Visualized my book right front and center that said New York Times across the cover.

And the other day it came true.

I was in Barnes & Noble in Denver doing a book signing and got to experience it with about

Sold out all the books there.

Had my friends there.

It was incredible feeling.

And something that's interesting is sometimes I achieve the biggest dreams of my life.

And I still experience some type of pain.

There's always some type of pain that's happening in my life.

Whether it be a breakup, whether it be something happening with my family, experiencing an

injury or something happening around that time of my life where there's a painful situation.
