Monday Minute ...

Your website visitors / newsletter subscribers / social media followers don't care how you do the work.

They care about what happens when the work is done.

It's never about you, your business, your skill set/experience.

It's always about them

Networking events are often the worst place to network.

Real relationships happen in real conversations.

Remember to talk TO people, not AT them.

& focus on them, not you.

Friendliness isn't always a sign of trustworthiness. Warmth is easy to fake.

The foundations of trust are reliability and integrity. What counts isn't courtesy in the moment—it's keeping commitments over time.

The best way to inspire confidence is to consistently walk our talk.

Sunday reminder: Professional confidence for freelancers & solopreneurs isn't about having all the answers.

It's about being honest about what you know & excited to learn more.

Freelancer myth: "I need to be everywhere online"

Reality: You need to be consistent somewhere valuable

Better approach: Pick 1-2 platforms where your ideal clients actually spend time. Show up there!

Quality consistency > scattered cotton-candy content

Real confidence comes from helping people, not convincing them.

Good luck tap on the shoulder from Sydney for the winning field goal.

1st time she's ever touched the TV.

1st time a back-to-back winning team makes it back to go for the trilogy

Coincidence?

It’s easy to be a critic or a cheerleader. It’s harder to be a coach.

Critics concentrate on your weaknesses and attack your worst self. Cheerleaders focus on your strengths and celebrate your best self.

Coaches emphasize your potential and help you become a better version of yourself.

On major life decisions, the purpose of seeking advice is not to get answers. It’s to gain perspective.

No one knows what's best for you. They can only share what makes sense to them.

The most important question to ask is not what you should do. It's what you might be missing.

Email swap opportunity 🤝

If you write for online course creators and digital product sellers, let's talk.

My list is small but mighty (~3K), with 50% open rates (fuzzy metric I'm aware), reply tons and active buyers.

Looking for 2 partners who value engagement.

Interested? Let's connect

and the most important.

Criticizing is fast and easy. Creating is slow and difficult.

The two hours you spent on a book or movie took someone two years to produce.

Anyone can tear down someone else's work. The true test of insight is whether you can help them improve it or build something of your own.

This note I wrote to myself on my 16th birthday has the wrinkle of a dried teardrop on it, and I love that. Keep becoming, friends. Feel free to send this to someone who needs to hear this today, whether it's their birthday or just a Wednesday in spacetime. Love
