Foreword
It’s common knowledge that nothing gives you more credibility as a writer than having your wife write your foreword.
Alright, it’s not common knowledge at all, but Jordan’s not common and that’s what makes this book exceptional.
Let’s flash back to 2015 for a moment, the year of the The Force Awakens, pizza rat, and Hotline Bling. In that year Jordan discovers a tribe of people leaving conventional employment to make money online. He realizes this is what he wants to do and pitches me his idea. I (being the supportive wife that I am) say, Sure honey, go play on your computer.
Little did I know how serious he was about this goal or how far it would take us. Flash forward to 2018, the year of the royal wedding and Rewrite the Stars. Jordan has five self-published books, three online courses, four blogs, and assists other self-publishing authors to get their books out there.
As neither a writer nor a scholar (and as an obviously biased source), I have a very small platform of credibility on which to stand. Where my credibility lies is in the honor and pleasure of witnessing first hand Jordan’s transformation into a man of action, goal setting, and legacy building.
I have had the distinct privilege of listening to Jordan's words for the past eight years and this has indubitably made me a better person. Jordan is a dreamer. Like bed bugs, dreams are contagious. I went from thinking What’s a goal?
and I’m only passionate about naps and chocolate,
to actively pursuing an entrepreneurial lifestyle and multiple goals simultaneously.
The road has not been pretty, the journey hard, and we have not yet arrived at our destination. After all, you can only be considered mildly successful if you drive a 2000 Corolla and have a serious budget discussion every time you need to buy Brita filters.
But this book isn’t about Jordan or me. It’s about you. You have goals to accomplish and things to get done. You have distractions and time-sucks. You’re looking for info to propel you towards your dreams. You picked up this book in the hopes that it would equip you for the real world.
Self-improvement books typically fall into two traps. Number one is the overdependence on big-picture clichés such as Change the world,
Get up and make a difference,
and Carpe diem.
These phrases, while inspiring, lack an actionable response for the reader. Sure, I’d love to change the world today, but my couch is cozy and I haven’t rewatched The Office in a couple of months.
The second danger is a book overflowing with hyper-specific habits, tiny details like clip your nails on Thursdays,
and unhelpful suggestions to set an alarm on your phone to go to bed. These life changes are great but without a larger vision for what you’re trying to accomplish these changes come and go like the fashionability of mom jeans.
Jordan’s skill lies in espousing fundamental big-picture truths with clear, concise direction. Focusing on the main motivations and shortcomings of humanity is essential, and so is applying steps that can be taken immediately. Without Destiny Goals, our positive action steps lead us nowhere. Without taking steps, our goals lay dormant, unfulfilled, and visible on the horizon but never quite within reach.
Jordan knows how to nudge the lazy, encourage the weary, and awaken the passive.
But don’t take my word for it. Read this book and watch how it changes your life.
Too many people in today’s society are listlessly meandering through life without purpose and direction. Don’t sell yourself short in life. Dream bigger dreams. Aim higher than you ever thought possible! Utilize the tools in this book to achieve those dreams and build (are you ready for it?)...Volcanic Momentum!

About the Author
Introduction: The Power of Change
In the spring of 2015 my wife and I took a giant leap forward. We committed to moving down south.
We had never before talked about moving anywhere other than within Pennsylvania. It just wasn’t something we’d discussed. The thought was so vague and foreign we had no idea what it truly meant to us at the time.
But you know what? We went. We took a risk and dove right in. It meant going wherever the wind took us, hoping and trusting we would make it through. It meant believing that everything would work out despite some major trepidations to the contrary.
The big move started with a normal walk through our lovely town of Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. We had taken hundreds of similar walks in our four years of living there after graduating from college. This walk didn’t seem like much of a change from the norm, but it ended up changing our lives.
During our regular five-mile loop we were suddenly struck with a desire to move away and start fresh. It hit both of us at the same time and we couldn’t help but feel elated and expectant towards our future.
We came back from the walk, frightened yet exhilarated at the thought of starting over in a new place. It felt monumental and a little bit more than coincidence that we were both thinking the same thing.
Six months later, we were driving down to Atlanta, Georgia with a carload of stuff, embarking on a new adventure. We both became assistant managers in a retirement community and had to scramble to keep up with the fast-paced and ever-changing environment we found ourselves in.
We had each other, and that was it. Just Jordan and Miranda.
At the job we were on call four nights a week, served meals to residents in the dining room when staff didn’t show up, and worked extremely late nights. This instilled a deep sense of hard work, and also a what the heck were we thinking?!
type of mindset.
It was grueling work and we wanted to quit several times. Looking back, I’m not sure how (or why) we decided to keep going. But we did, and it ended up being one of the most rewarding decisions of our lives. This was our first step in moving towards volcanic momentum.
We were working towards our vision, even though that vision had not yet been made clear to us.
It’s funny what you remember looking back. When I picture myself vacuuming the huge dining room at the retirement community, I now get a sense of nostalgia. There’s nothing like that feeling: when you look back at a memory and instill it with positive feelings, even if, at the time, you’d wanted to be anywhere else.
How often is that the case? How often do we want to be somewhere else, when we really need to appreciate the here-and-now and learn to be present?
It’s in this presence of mind that we can fight our way towards our goals. When we find ourselves vacuuming the same floor over and over again, while all we really want to do is work towards a big goal, we need to realize that the work we are doing now is preparing the way for us, no matter what that work
