For the past 8-10 years Troy has been collecting ideas and thoughts about writing a book. Most of his thoughts came from reading books and the observations of others. Early on he pretty much knew he wanted to write about excellence as that is something he has been pursuing his entire life. The title of the book "Excel Exponentially" came early to Troy. After that it was just searching for the values, virtues, characteristics, principles, morals, and truths that would help one reach exponential excellence. 

While doing some reading, Troy would come across words that would start with the letter E and underline them. One by one the "elements" to excel became apparent. He realized that each element would need to start with the letter E. Troy decided that there should be certain criteria for establishing what an element must consist of. He produced a list of criteria and ended up calling them the Essential Elements. Overtime he ended up with over 20 essential elements. He has since narrowed them down to 18 (the number had to start with an E). 

1. They must start with the letter E

2. They are ETERNAL ELEMENTS or principles

3. They are for EVERYONE

4. They are ENCOURAGING or EDIFYING

5. They are EXPEDIENT to pursue

6. They are not ESOTERIC

7. They are ENGAGING

8. They are ELEMENTARY

Because of time constraints from working in his small businesses to volunteering his time it has taken a few years to get serious about writing the book. In 2022, Troy and his wife ended up selling one of their small businesses that he spent most of his time working in. By February 2023 they started working on the content of the book. 

While writing the book it became obvious to Troy that excellence is not about being superior or eminence to others. It is about the other "rewards" or "benefits" one receives to excelling. He read a statistic, at one point in time that said, 89% of people want to write a book but only 1% end up doing it. Troy now considers himself very fortunate to be a part of the 1%.
