If I've learned anything, the best way to learn something new is to try to answer the question yourself first, and then when new ideas or answers come later, it's easier to retain and implement the new information later. So my first question is: how do you find ideas that are interesting to you? And my second question is: how do you retain and store them future use? Once you've answered the two questions above, you're already half way there. Because once you notice what's interesting to you, all that's left is to find a unique and memorable way to teach it to others. So how might you store and keep track of interesting ideas to you in a such a way that it's easy to have numerous ideas to choose from at your fingertips anytime you sit down to write an email? Then I'll come back and share the way I do it tomorrow. Here's a hint, the idea originates in Ancient Athens.

What’s something big or small you accomplished this week that you’re proud of? This could be a humble brag, a tiny task you’ve been putting off, or a huge win you might feel weird sharing elsewhere because it would make you look like a total showoff. It could even be a win disguised as a failure (where you didn’t get the result you wanted but learned something important anyway). Why do this? Because it rewires how you relate to progress. Most people only allow themselves to feel successful when the result is public, the win is impressive, or someone else validates it. By posting your win here, you’ll acknowledge how much progress you’re making even when no one else is clapping for you. (But also… we will clap for you... so there's that...). This is about training your brain to notice your momentum instead of constantly chasing more. Small wins count. Big wins count. "Well that didn't work but now I know" counts. The goal here is to make progress feel lighter, and a lot more fun. So brag a little, celebrate something weird, and the share the win you've otherwise dismissed.

Perhaps you can... We're a small tight knit bunch here. So I'm curious... What are you working on now that you need the most help with? As of now, I've only loaded some of my "grow your email list on Threads content". But what if you could have educational content on whatever problem it is you need solving most right now in your business? Possibly email related? List growth, better open rates, more replies, people clicking through to check out your offers, making sitting down to write your next email easier and more effortless... Or perhaps some clarity on positioning yourself on the internet as a "category of one". Seeing as there are 8 billion people in the world... Titles like "Yoga Instructor" no longer cut on the internet... you need to a become a "Yoga Instructor For Women Who Pee Their Pants" — (yes this is a real offer from Dr. Melissa Oleson, see here). So maybe you'd like some insight on how to carve out a place like for yourself on the world's largest "information -in-and-out" platform? Or maybe it's something else entirely? What's got you stymied... right now... in your business. I'll see what I've already got that can help, or else work on creating something.
