free online courses so that you get out of your way and do shit that matters before you’re dead
Mike Adams by Annie Adams
I don’t fix you.You’re not broken.
I help you help yourself. There’s a difference.
You’re the hero; I’m the guide. You’re Luke; I’m Obi Won.
You know that you are more than what you are.
I help 50 somethings do shit that matters.
You feel called to play a bigger game, do what you love,
help others, make money and enjoy life, but you have doubts.
What if I suck? What if they laugh? Can I really make $?
Is now the right time? Am I enough? Who am I to lead?
I’ve been there. I did what I love for 25 years.
Now, I’m starting over.
I’m scared too. We need us.

I Have a Confession.
I'm Mike, a Work in Progress.
I don't have a PhD, not even a Masters.
I never went to seminary. In confirmation class, at Messiah Lutheran, in 1972 Yorba Linda, The Lake Wobegon of California's Orange County, I was searching for Margie Rost, the little brown-hair girl, not Jesus. I didn't find either.
God has not spoken to me, not even on Snapchat.
I'm married and have 3 kids, all of them way above average, just like yours. I was a photographer for 25 years, did what I loved and made money, and then I fell apart and my business followed me.
There are chapters I don't want to read out loud.
I"m middle of the road, a bit scarred and scared, and maybe that makes me the right messenger.
My journey is your journey. Your dance is my dance.
We want the same thing: feel fully alive in the middle of everyday life. We want inner and outer success. We want to fullfill our potential, do what we love, make money, enjoy life, help others, and make the world a better place. Pick you order.
I don't want to be on my deathbed and think, like Tolstoy's Ivan Ilych, I screwed up. I didn't live as I ought. I let fear stear. I didn't show up. I want to live a life that matters.
If this feels like you, Let's Do Shit That Matters.

Testimonials
Loved the iphone class. It was great to see how you look for the best light and set up the shot. My photos have never been better!
Best 3 hours and $79 I”ve spent. We spent $1,000 on a fancy schmancy camera
and no one knew how to use it! Now, I”m a fancy camera badass!
Thank You!!
Loved the photography seminar! I tried to read the manual but I didn’t get it.
You made it so easy! Feel like I can now take some great photos for my blog.
Thanks!
I love this! At some point, we must begin. Sometimes that beginning is against others’ advice. Sometimes we begin against the voices that shout in our heads with fear. Sometimes we begin not knowing everything we need to know. But begin WE MUST! One thing is sure: If we don’t begin, failure is ours to keep.
Love the photographs and the bocci ball video. Our residents had a great time working with you.
Thanks!!
Class was great. Straight forward and fun. I learned a lot, especially about the importance of writing.
Great seminar! There was so much good, pratical info that I could barely keep up with my notes. Excited to get home and implement. Thanks!
