He writes the financial daily, The Daily Missive, and is the host and editor of The Essential Investor, a fundamental resource for individuals managing their money. 

Addison joins me today to discuss his perspective on the inevitable financial reckoning that he has been predicting for years.

Jeff Haden author of The Motivation Myth spent over 20 years in manufacturing when he realized he really didn’t love what he was doing. Over the next few years, he learned different skills to create a job for himself in the ghostwriting arena. Some may ask? What is ghostwriting? Why do people hire a ghostwriter? and where do you find a ghostwriter?

WHAT WE DISCUSSED IN THIS INTERVIEW

• What is Ghostwriting? Ghostwriting involves hiring someone to write works such as books, speeches, or articles, which are officially credited to another person as the author. Commonly used by celebrities, executives, and political leaders.
• Why Do People Hire a Ghostwriter? People hire ghostwriters when they have expertise but lack time or writing talent. Ghostwriters help transform ideas into polished, professional content.
• Where Do You Find a Ghostwriter? Ghostwriters can be found on platforms like UpWork, Freelancer, and BloggingPro. Key advice: hire someone with proven experience who writes professionally.
• The Motivation Myth: Jeff Haden’s book debunks the idea that motivation leads to success. Instead, he argues that small successes create motivation, leading to the achievement of bigger goals.
• What is a Serial Achiever? A serial achiever is someone who successfully pursues multiple careers or interests over their lifetime. Jeff Haden encourages embracing diverse roles and adding “AND” to your professional identity.
• Additional Podcast Insights: Topics include the difference between a coach and a pro, writing a book in 1.5 weeks, developing perseverance, leadership skills, coping skills, and more.
