do you doubt yourself too?


24 hours into my new plan of emailing you daily and I'm already doubting and second-guessing my decision.

Do you do that too, Reader?

You know: one minute you have this great idea and you're certain it's the right thing to do...

...and the next you're plagued by doubts that tell you it's in fact a very, very BAD idea...

I drive myself crazy!

You know what scares me here?

It's the thought these emails might annoy you.

Or worse still, bore you.

I'm sitting here at my desk in the living room thinking "who could possibly be interested in reading about what I do to make money online"?

I know I'm not the only one with this worry.

I have enough coaching students to have spotted a trend: many of them have the same fear.

And as a result, they email rarely or not at all.

I make myself laugh when I read this!

Imagine if big companies worried about being boring - and stopped emailing as a result?

That would be mad, right?

I get daily emails from Easyjet for example. They're always telling me about these amazing destinations that I could fly off to. They make me crave for a holiday in the sun!

I never get annoyed or bored.

If I have time to open the email and glance through, I do.

If not, I just pass and open the next one.

No big deal.

I don't sit here thinking "Easyjet's emails are boring".

I'm just grateful they keep in touch with me - because the next time I want to book a flight or a holiday, all I need to do is click on a link on their latest email!

So I guess here's a lesson for us all, right?

If you have an email list... write to them! Turn up in their inbox!

You're not annoying - you're keeping in touch with people who want to hear from you!

If they get bored, they can always unsubscribe, that's not a problem.

Phew! I feel better now lol!

And I need to dash - got to take my son Ben to his flute lesson...

...before I join Dean on Zoom for week 3 of his Recurring Income Jumpstart workshop this evening.

Winding road through snowy, barren landscape

I'm coming to the end of this road, Reader... Soon you'll get no more emails from me (maybe that's a relief lol!). After months of umming and ahing... ...and weeks of trying to pivot whilst still keeping a few toes and fingers in the make money online niche... I'm finally moving on for real. "If Easy and Gluten Free is THE thing, then you cannot do anything other than that" were my mentor's words yesterday. And he's right. The time has come for me to choose and go all in. So what does this...

Tea

People drive me CRAZY at times! You might relate to this,Reader... Yesterday we were sitting in my sister's living-room, sipping a nice cup of afternoon tea... Kids were playing in the background, having a good time... It was gloomy outside, and lovely and cozy inside... All good so far, right? And then, out of the blue, my sister gets on the war path! "So how's your online 'stuff' going?" she asks, her voice loaded with skepticism as she says "STUFF" (notice how she never calls it "work" or...

a window with a sign that says keep going, almost there

There's nothing more discouraging than to compare yourself to others who are way ahead of you. I know this - and yet I fall into this trap more often than I care to admit. The other day, I wrote to you about how exciting it is to build a new business... But that's only half the story. It's exciting, for sure. But it's also hard. If you're having a bad day, I'm right there with you Reader. This morning I found myself staring at my YouTube stats for my easy and gluten free channel... ... the...
