AFRAID TO TAKE RISKS? TRY THIS | Ty Allan Jackson

How many times would you let the world tell you no before you gave up on your dream? After submitting his manuscript to 147 agents and being rejected 147 times, today's guest not only learned how to publish his books himself but also sold 300,000 of them.
