FOREWORD

      My relationship with Scott Young began in mid-2013. On July 10, I sent him an email asking if he wanted to set up a call for the following month. We had met at a conference a few days earlier, and I was hoping he would be willing to continue the conversation.

      “Possibly,” he replied. “I’ll be in Spain then, and the language-learning focus of my upcoming project may take precedence.”
