The name Will Sessions was born as a producer alias of trumpeter Sam Beaubien. After sharpening his keyboard skills and learning writing and arrangement from the accomplished David Van de Pitte (who arranged for countless Motown recordings including Marvin Gaye's album What's Going On) at Wayne State University, he decided to start a band. With classmates Tim Shellaberger (bass) and Bryan Arnold (drums) along with recruits Ryan Gimpert (guitar) and Eric Kacir (Percussion), the band was complete. They helped to develop a nascent monthly funk music party called Motor City Funk Night, and three years later, the party has grown into one of the staples of the Detroit scene, and Will Sessions were playing in front of crowds of up to 3000 people. The success of the Funk Night parties led to significant studio work with artists like Black Milk, Mayer Hawthorne, and Slum Village, and the hip hop sessions in particular led Beaubien to concoct the idea of Will Sessions recreating his favorite sample-based music in a live setting with the full band. His vision would be realized with three smash concerts in 2009 for Black Milk, Guilty Simpson, and Phat Kat, which left hip hop fans in awe of how the band stayed faithful to the original sampled and programmed beats, while creatively elevating the songs to new heights by recreating them live. It was the particular challenge of duplicating the unique beats of J Dilla that gave Beaubien the confidence to work on the emcee Elzhi's anticipated project Elmatic. Elmatic had been initially planned and announced in 2008 as a tribute to the historic 1994 album Illmatic by Nas, but it wasn't until early 2011 that Elzhi and his manager Jae Barber agreed that it would be best to recreate all of the beats from scratch-and there was clearly nobody who could do it better than producer Sam Beaubien and Will Sessions. Since it's widely considered to be the holy grail of hip hop recordings, the prospect of duplicating the music from Illmatic was daunting. By using the original sample sources of the album's tracks as a foundation, producer Beaubien and the band members managed to recreate both the sound and the mood of the classic album with stunning precision on Elmatic, exceeding lofty expectations set by loyal fans and skeptical critics alike. With an ever-increasing body of recorded work, a skyrocketing reputation within their hometown market, and their first tastes of national and international interest, Will Sessions are primed to be among Detroit's hottest musical exports.

High energy mindset book, but very repetitive
Format: Hardcover
The 10X Rule is a very high energy, motivational book focused on taking massive action and setting goals much higher than what most people think is realistic.
The strongest part is the mindset shift. It constantly pushes the idea that success requires way more effort, persistence, and volume than people typically expect. If you are looking for motivation to work harder and avoid playing it safe, the message definitely hits.
It also does a good job challenging excuses and comfort zones. The tone is very direct and intense, which can be useful if you respond well to that style of motivation.
However, the book is very repetitive. The same core idea of “10X effort” is repeated throughout almost every section in slightly different ways, which can make it feel stretched out.
It is more motivational than practical, so if you are looking for step-by-step systems or structured strategies, this may not be what you are expecting.
Overall, it’s a strong mindset book if you want intensity and motivation, but less useful if you are looking for detailed execution plans.

An Excellent, Eye-Opening Read That Truly Makes You Reflect
Format: Kindle
The 10X rule is an excellent book—engaging, interactive, and surprisingly eye-opening. It doesn’t just present ideas; it invites you to actively reflect on your own behavior, decisions, and patterns. As you move through the chapters, you’re constantly prompted to pause, think, and reassess the way you act and respond in everyday situations.

Grant Doesn't Hold Back!
Format: Hardcover
What It's All About...
So, the 10 X Rule is a very motivation book about rethinking the way you think about goal setting and the effort it takes to accomplish your goals.
Without giving away the obvious, Grant shares that when we go for a goal like, "I want $100 in the next 30 days to pay my bills." We often fall short of that goal and need to restate it as: "I want $1,000 in the next 30 days to pay my bills." Now, if you do far short (happens often), you will still hit somewhere greater than $100. Therefore, we must always 10 X our goals to hit the goals we desire.
Now, when it comes to effort, because we often underestimate the action it takes to meet our goals... Our new $1,000 goal requires 10 X effort to hit it. So, if you think "To hit $1,000, I need to make 1 sales call each day." you need to 10 X that number and make 10 sales calls to hit your new $1,000 goal. Therefore, we must always 10 X our effort and change our actions to meet out goals.
He also takes times at the end of the book to outline 32 characteristics of successful people that also help in accomplishing these 10 X Goals. Some of those include: Have a "Can Do" attitude, Seek to Solve Problems, Focus on Now, Be Highly Ethical, etc.
At the end of each chapter he asks a set of questions that helps to reinforce the material you just read.
My Take...
Overall, this really juiced me up and got me to rethink the way in which I look at goals and the actions I need to meet them.
When reading such a book, I often get so inspired that I shoot off goals without really appreciating the amount of effort it will take to hit them. I walked away from Grant's book with a firm idea on the big goals I want to hit and a healthier understanding of what it's going to take to get there.
The overall feel of the book was also inspiring because Grant is the type of person that believes in going for goals, even if you don't know exactly how you are going to accomplish them... Just get started. I resonate with that line of thinking.
If you like listening to audio books, Grant does his own reading of the book, which gives a greater sense of emphasis and passion behind the content.
Who should read this...
Entrepreneurs, Business owners, High School and College Students
