From bouncer to bricklayer to billionaire concierge - Steve Sims is no slacker, saying "For twenty-five years I was the go-to guy for the mega famous. And I learned, if you give it for free, they don't pay attention."

Check out this episode on my You Tube channel to see our pretty faces!

Sims is a digital creator, speaker, author, coach, creative disruptor, and harsh truth dropper. He was once called the Real Life Wizard of Oz, though that's not his favorite tag.

He talks about his accidental rise to hanging with the super stars and uber famous folks. He is the author of Bluefishing (the art of making things happen) and Go For Stupid (the art of achieving ridiculous goals). 
His podcast is The Art of Making Things Happen.

Listen in as I get to learn about how Sims took a submarine to see the actual Titanic (the details in his story left me awe-stuck and nearly speechless). Find out about how he closed a major museum to throw a dinner party for 6 at the feet of a famous sculpture featuring a world renowned singer. 

Steve Sims says he is perpetually curious, and doesn't align with those who tend to overcomplicate things. While we were talking, this formula emerged:  
Curiosity + Aggravation = Creation.    Damn, that's a goosebump giver right there. 

Learn why we should "go for the No" and even 'Ask Why three times".
