About this listen
Hollywood produces its on-screen heroes to take crucial steps to achieve their goals, and often against all odds. These same principles can be applied to anything you are seeking to accomplish or improve in your own story or life. Recognizing and following these proven and tested, cinematic stages of the hero's transformation will help you exponentially upgrade your process, mindset, awareness, and ultimately fine-tune your purpose.
Produce Yourself compares the journey in all of us with that of our favorite heroes from movies and television. From developing better habits to improving finances; from starting a business to learning real estate strategies; from improving relationships to co-worker dynamics; from making days more effectual and distraction-free to harnessing the power of mindset; from improving health and diet to accessing the power of play; this book helps find and multiply your "why" - why you are on your current journey and how to optimize it.
If you're an entrepreneur, self-employed, or simply want a better, more successful and happy life, this book is for you. It's for anyone who wants to understand the journey of their inner hero and apply the same, time-tested formula to their own life.
Using scholar Joseph Campbell and writer Christopher Vogler's iconic stages of the Hero's Journey, Terence Michael exposes his own Hollywood trajectory to share lessons and principles you can apply to your own process and approach.
What is your story? Are you the hero? Or just a supporting character? You are the producer of you. This book helps you find the tools to change, upgrade, or completely rewrite your story. You can Produce Yourself just like a Hollywood producer produces a star to overcome obstacles, turn failures into opportunity, and bring the elixir home.
Terence Michael has collaborated with many artists and brands in his films and TV shows.

Businesses fail for a lot of reasons. The biggest one, however, is the owner's lack of understanding of their personal decision-making skills, who they are, or who they should be inside their organization. Running a business is both an art and a science. If you are only good at one of them, or in the worst case, neither, you will most likely become one of the 65 percent of people who fail.

We're in the middle of an epidemic of average. So-called "normal" people get up every day, go to work, do what's asked of them, leave promptly at five, and return home to sit on the couch and watch TV. Society tells us that this is what it means to lead a balanced life. Don't stress too much or work too hard. Your career isn't everything. But Grant Cardone thinks this preoccupation with balance has really just given an excuse to be mediocre.

Do you ride the escalator or do you take the stairs? No matter how you define success, it always requires one thing: self-discipline. But as popular speaker and strategist Rory Vaden explains, we live in an "escalator world", one that's filled with shortcuts, quick fixes, and distractions that make it all too easy to slide into procrastination, compromise, and mediocrity. What seems like an easier path is really much harder in the end - and, most important, it won't take you where you want to go.

Life isn’t about “finding” fulfillment and success - it’s about creating it. Why then has creativity been given a back seat in our culture? No longer. Creativity is a force inside every person that, when unleashed, transforms our lives and delivers vitality to everything we do. Establishing a creative practice is therefore our most valuable and urgent task - as important to our well-being as exercise or nutrition. The good news? Renowned artist, author, and CreativeLive founder, Chase Jarvis, reminds us that creativity isn't a skill - it's a habit available to everyone.

Honest and informative
Being a new writer and producer myself, I was inspired by his story and advice. What was big and unattainable in my head, just needed a change of perspective. Failure is okay. In fact necessary. Recommend this book for anyone who limits or doubts themselves. Knowing greatness lies inside.

This is basically a 1st hand, boots on the ground account of how the author forged a career in entertainment (and beyond) for himself. Very motivating and also sobering - it’s all about shifting into new behaviors and adapting to change. Very happy with this product - the only problem is now I have no excuses.

Though I didn't connect with much of Michael's personal story, I appreciate the logistical advice he provides toward becoming "the hero of your life," and his performance is engaging as you can tell how enthusiastic he is. In his voice you get the feeling he really wants to help you become empowered, without it feeling over-the-top.
