Last week it was Robin Sharma, this week it was John Assaraf who stopped by.

John was in Kuala Lumpur to speak at an event for a couple of heads of state, including the Prime Minister. He was also kind enough to swing by our office and spend time with the crew. Mike and I were on Necker Island during this time so we missed John, but it was a real treat for many of the MindValley crew to meet him.

Robin Sharma, one of our favorite authors stopped by MindValley today. Robin was in town to address a  business conference and was nice enough to swing by to watch our Awesomeness Report, sign autographs and say hi to the team.

I read Robin's book "The Monk Who Sold His Ferrari" some time around summer 2007. It sparked an idea in my head. At that time we ran a website called "The Goldman Method". It was based on the meditation programs by Burt Goldman. After reading Robin's book,  the idea of  the "Western Monk" captured my imagination and we renamed the site and the product "Lessons from an American Monk". You can see it now on TheAmericanMonk.com. The result was a massive boost in sales. TheAmericanMonk.com grew into a million dollar business within it's first year and to this day is one of MindValley's most profitable ventures online.

Thank you Robin for your kindness and inspiration.
