What It's About
Ready? Set. Go! There's no better time to work on that project than now.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1185
In recent Classroom episodes, we’ve looked at different side hustle ideas—where they come from, categories of different ideas, how to decide between competing ideas, and so on. We looked at the three elements of every compelling offer: a promise, a pitch, and a price, and then we examined the difference between what people say they want and what they really want. Last week was all about business licenses, bank accounts, and record-keeping. This week I’d like to pose a question as a thought experiment: what if you had to launch a project in two weeks or less? This is not just theoretical, at least for me: In my world, my new book THE MONEY TREE comes out in just eight days, so perhaps that’s why this topic has been on my mind. I try to live out the values I teach here on the show, and when it comes to publishing I have an unmovable deadline. Ready or not, the day arrives, and I have a limited window to make it really count. So when it comes to working on a crunch to launch your project, there are a few questions you need to answer:- What do you really have to do?
- What part of this are you currently procrastinating around?
- What can you let go of?
THIS WEEK’S ASSIGNMENT: If you expect to produce income this year, make sure you have a dedicated bank account for that income. Keep it separate from your other income. Part II: Track your expenses using one of those systems I mentioned, or if you’re a spreadsheet person, just do it that way—but do it some way.
Inspiration is good; inspiration combined with action is better. Now get back to work! Yours in the revolution,
