Sunday was ELUL 29

Sunday was ELUL 29. It was the last day of the year in an ancient calendar. Monday was the first day.
I wrote a book this past year on debt forgiveness and some other Biblical concepts.
If you crack open the Bible and study out the topic of debt forgiveness, there is some pretty clear advice in the Bible. And that is one of the things I talk about in my next book — ELUL 29.
The book has long been ready, except for one thing — there was a single piece of advice that I did not follow through with — to put every single last debt owed to me behind me. To forgive the debts.
I recognize the market for a book on forgiveness is very small. No one wants to do it. Most people just want to be the recipients of forgiveness. I recognize the market for a book on debt forgiveness is even smaller.
Well, Sunday night, I found it in my heart to forgive debts that I least wanted to forgive. Now I can publish the book without being a hypocrite. Because truthfully, until Sunday night, when I finally followed my own advice in every last example in my life, I would have been a hypocrite for publishing ELUL 29.
If you read it, you’ll see what I mean.
In my book from 2012 - How To Win America, I describe techniques that I was expert in. Nothing hypocritical about the hard advice I offered and continue to offer on that topic of political activism. In The Bitcoin Manifesto I did the same. In Face Masks in One Lesson I did that as well — offered advice I had tested over and over. One exception was with airlines, which I understood was needed advice, but which I had to rely on lots of expert testimony for, since I avoided commercial flights in 2020.
But, had I moved forward with publishing ELUL 29 before Sunday, I would have been a hypocrite. The path to publishing the book with a clear conscience is now clear — get rid of unforgiven financial baggage from the past. I have found that the crazier the idea sounds to you, the more you probably need to be exposed to that idea. It once sounded pretty crazy to me. Now I get it. I really get it. I get it like I've never gotten it before.
As the book gets closer to launch, as I have done in many past book launches, there will be a special friends and family price for the softcover edition. That will be the time to grab a bargain, in the first few days after the book launches.
And for the next few days, I will be offering a premium way to get the book as well — signed and personalized.
If you’d like a signed and personalized copy of ELUL 29, you can get that.
But it won’t be cheap.
And for the right person it will be worth it.
