Welcome to SECRETS of The World’s Most Confident People
I am starting this blog to share three things with you:
(1) Obviously… SECRETS of The World’s Most Confident People! You will have access to a ton of audios and videos of interviews with a bunch of amazing people.
(2) Confidence tips and advice to support YOU in your journey, and
(3) Stories about my own journey into confidence (I’ll share my fears, my joys, my passions and even my pain too).
In January 2009, I set myself a crazy goal – I was going to interview The World’s Most Confident People.
. 
I didn’t know how. I didn’t know who. I didn’t even know where or when. But I did know WHY…
WHY?
Because I felt excited.
I don’t even know if excited is the right word for it – but every time I said to myself I’m gonna interview The World’s Most Confident People I found a great big soppy grin appeared on my face. When I told a couple of people my plan, they said “wow!” or something like that – and my grin got bigger. So I knew I was onto something.
Then I told a whole bunch of people and they thought it was a cool idea. And I got kinda self-important (I do that). Hey, I’m interviewing The World’s Most Confident People.
So I started.
Well, I say I started.
Actually, I did nothing.
Well. Lets be honest. How the HELL do you go about interviewing The World’s Most Confident People, anyway?!
So I did nothing some more.
And then I told Michael Neill. Michael is my mentor and my coach and a friend (www.geniuscatalyst.com) and Michael said, who do you want to interview?
And then I got scared…
I don’t know, I said.
Well, said Michael, if you did know, who would you LOVE to interview…?
Oh, that’s easy, I said. And the names began to tumble out… Richard Branson, Barack Obama, Michelle Obama, Paul McKenna, Russell Brand, Cesar Milan, Sean Stephenson, Oprah Winfrey…
Great said Michael. Who do you want to interview first?
F@#k! What’s he talking about?! How can I ever interview THEM? Who am I? I don’t even know them. I don’t even know HOW to know them. I don’t even know how to BEGIN to know them.
I hate Michael sometimes.
So I said, how about I interview my friend Decker (after all, he’s pretty famous in the dating world for helping men meet amazing women www.authenticmanprogram.com). And Michael said, well, that’s easy. He’s your friend. Who on your list do you want to interview first?
Did I mention I hate Michael sometimes?
OK, Russell Brand, I said. (Russell Brand’s an English comedian, actor, writer and presenter. He recently starred in the movies Forgetting Sarah Marshall, and Bedtime Stories.)
I happen to think he’s very funny. And he doesn’t give a f@#k about what people think of him. I like that. (Most of the time I worry far too much about what people think of me).
Michael jumped up and ran to his computer. Ok, he didn’t run. Michael’s too mellow for that. But he did put Russell Brand’s name into google. After just 5 minutes he’d come up with half a dozen ways for me to contact him. I knew that it might take a little more energy than that but it really wasn’t as difficult as I’d imagined.
Then I got really nervous.
Here I was sitting opposite an internationally renowned Success Coach. A best-selling author, radio-show host and a coach and mentor to celebrities, CEOs and royalty. A man whose books have been translated into 8 languages and who has given talks at the United Nations (www.geniuscatalyst.com).
Jeez. If this wasn’t someone who should be in the book SECRETS of The World’s Most Confident People then nobody should.
F@#k it!
Hey Michael, can I interview you?
Sure, when?
Errr… now?
Sure.
Errr.
Err..
Errr…
OK. Rich, press record and ask me a question.
And that was it! I was doing it. I was really doing it.
Listen to my first ever interview! You’ll even hear how shaky my voice was as we begin!

In the three months since I talked with Michael, I have interviewed almost 50 of The World’s Most Confident People…
Including the modern-day James Bond who stole a Billion Dollars; the High School Dropout and Ex-Geisha who consults at the White House and helped 150 people become Millionaires; three New York Times bestselling authors who are regular guests on Oprah; and the World’s Leading Hypnotist.
Also one of the Most Influential & Powerful Women in Social Media; the Creator of a Website with Two Million Visitors a month; the woman who recovered from rape to become an Internationally Known Psychic; the Mother of Two who Founded a Charity and Influences Governments; the Success Coach who works with Royalty and Hollywood Stars; the World’s Greatest Seducer and three of the Most Sexually Confident Women you’ll ever meet…
