NFL Player's Act Changes Author's Life, Leading to Sudden Success.

Jim Murphy had a note on his phone that said, "I’m a New York Times best-selling author." His book "Inner Excellence" was published in 2009, but the affirmation had not come true yet. Despite low sales, Murphy remained confident. After getting the publishing rights back in 2018, he rewrote and self-published a new edition.

During a playoff game on Jan. 12, Eagles receiver A.J. Brown was seen reading Murphy’s book on the sideline. This led to a significant increase in sales. Before the broadcast, the book ranked poorly on Amazon, but after the exposure, it became the top-selling book.

At the time of the book's sudden success, Murphy was facing personal and financial challenges. His mother was terminally ill, and his business was struggling. Despite financial difficulties, Murphy's life changed dramatically as he became a sought-after author.

Murphy, a former baseball player, spent years writing "Inner Excellence" to help athletes perform better. The book gained popularity after Brown was seen reading it during an NFL game. Murphy's life transformed as he received widespread attention and opportunities.

Murphy, now a bestselling author, aims to use his newfound platform to help others. He plans to open an "Inner Excellence academy" in Philadelphia to train people for fulfilling careers. Despite the sudden fame and financial changes, Murphy remains focused on his purpose of making a positive impact on others.
