A little hack I discovered to be a LOT more productive
My hack for all-day energy? I work in BLOCKS. I work for 35 minutes, then break for 5 minutes. During breaks, I meditate, do yoga, anything to restore. I track how many "blocks" I complete each day. I take notes on energy levels, focus, flow state, etc. All this lives on a spreadsheet. All I care about is adding more blocks, of higher quality. I don't even look at the clock.

Ah yes, the gool ol' Pomodoro technique.
What Would Make This Group Amazing?
I'll be honest...I have no idea how to build a successful community / get people motivated / add massive value, in a group like this. But, I really want to. Can you share what would make this group amazing for you? Any help would be greatly appreciated. 🙏

@Brian Ellwood Thanks for the question. I'm wondering for myself as well. I've created my community a month ago, but thus far only have 7 members (including myself). At $99/mo., it will be unsustainable very quickly. But, to be fair, I have yet to post any courses, videos, or host any events. But, I'm still strongly considering churning out of the platform until I have positive revenue and an audience large enough to warrant a #1,200/yr. spend.
Book + Podcast (visibility) = Leads
Two weeks ago, I was interviewed by Mamie Kanfer Stewart as a guest on her podcast, "The Modern Manager Podcast." The episode released this morning. Here is a snapshot of my dashboard one hour after the episode's release. You can listen to the episode here: www.themodernmanager.com/podcast-332

Also, I forgot to add that my LinkedIn follower count has already grown by over 20.
The LAZY Way to Publish a Great Book
There is a "lazy" way to publish a great book. No one knows about it (yet). In time, this approach will be the 'meta'. It will be saturated, and the standards will go higher. RIght now, you can leverage the power of AI + existing (or future) content to publish a great book, all while reducing the writing commitment by a solid 80%. And no, this isn't a cheap "AI book", either. If you create content (or plan to), you can get a book out of it easy. I outline the entire process in this video: https://youtu.be/bnLc17LivXQ

Hi @Brian Ellwood! Are you willing to share the prompt you used in the video? If not, I totally understand. Thanks in advance.
Devious Thought - I didn't do it, though!
Yesterday, I attended one of those online webinars where a "guru" says, " I'm giving away all of my secrets." Um...if by "giving away" you mean buying an annual subscription to Kajabi through your affiliate link, NO! That's neither "giving away" nor ethical, IMO. But, while on the webinar, the host mentioned there were over 300 participants. I couldn't tell because the participant count was hidden from everyone. This devious approach ran through my head: What if I posted a link to the free download page for my book? Would that be ethical? I didn't do it, but I seriously considered it. After all, I felt cheated out of my time for attending, only to find out it was a Kajabi commercial. What are everyone's thoughts on this? It feels devious, but it is an innovative approach. I'm sure a few people would have opted to download a free copy of a book titled "Liberating the Overworked Manager." Thoughts? Am I a bad person? 😬
