Mindset Tip Of The Week

Ya’ll.

I’m actually on fire from this conversation with

Sara Noel

.

It started out as a discussion about how she’s building a million dollar business … and quickly evolved into a motivational speech about how & why you should act on your ideas.

Like, NOW.

We waste too much time researching, preparing, and developing the idea, writing a business plan, and perfecting a logo…

and not enough time actually doing the thing.

With this podcast, I just said f*ck it.

I didn’t read articles on how to podcast, I didn’t buy courses on how to host an engaging conversation, or spend hours in Canva building marketing materials.

I just had an idea and started messaging people about it, and within the first few days, I booked out 6 weeks of podcasting guests with my favorite writers on Substack:

• Julianna

It really doesn’t matter if this podcast goes no where or if I lose subscribers doing it, because I am having so much *FUN* in the process.

The tip of the week is listen to your ideas, take them seriously, and act right away.

Don’t over-research, don’t over-plan, don’t over-prepare. Don’t talk yourself out of it. Just DO the thing.

Let it be messy, and fun, and spontaneous.

Not everything has to be so organized and militant!
