Any Good Reads?
What's one book, podcast, or show that changed how you think? Mine is The One Thing by Gary Keller. The big takeaway for me was that there's always a long to-do list, but the move is to prioritize the things that make everything else easier or faster. To this day, I wake up every morning and pick one to three tasks that do exactly that. It basically helps me get out of my own way. What's yours? And what stayed with you from it?

Most recently, I read the book: Snow Leopard: How Legendary Writers Create A Category Of One by Category Pirates (Christopher Lochhead, Eddie Yoon, and Nicolas Cole)... this book helped me isolate my niche so it could become the category king... this differentiation has had a massive shift in how I'm approaching my branding and marketing of my new book: FACETS Of The Mind - The New Content-Free, Process-Only Model Of Trauma Resolution Based On Changing Perception (Reading Snow Leopard helped me shift my category focus from trauma therapy and create the category of trauma resolution...massive difference!)

@Carrie Loranger I really like the idea of building everything from one Substack newsletter... that's eventually what I'd like to do with FACETS. The book points out, at least my interpretation of it, that it's not that hard to create a category of one... usually, it's the use of one strategically placed word... like, instead of a car, it's an electric car... instead of a bike, it's an ebike... instead of a Book, it's an eBook... in my case, instead of trauma therapy, it's trauma resolution... one frame implies a long-term commitment to reliving and retelling all about the contents of the story, and the new and different frame implies one trauma, one resolution. In your case, you've successfully done the same thing by changing one frame into another, resulting in a completely different perspective! Congrats!
AI for images
I'm preparing my newsletter for Tuesday and I'm really excited about it because it's all about visual branding. This is something I don't really talk about, but I've been using AI for image creation since the early days of Midjourney. I went live with Pinkie from AI Meets Girl Boss last week and we talked about visual branding and how it lead to more subscribers for both of us. In the comments, I'm sharing a few prompts that will be included in Tuesday's paid subscriber issue so you can try them out. I'm wondering what the members of this community have done for their visual branding. Please feel free to share your style and drop some images in the comments. There are a total of 20 image prompts like these in Tuesday's issue. Would you like me to turn it into a guide and include it in the classroom?

Hi, Everyone! Carrie asked me to post this here so everyone could see the next level of using the Image Creator... She got me started, and so now I have a complete cover for my new book... Thank you, Carrie! p.s. This entire cover, including the images, was created using the Image Creator.

@Carrie Loranger Thank you!
How many subscribers do you have?
Which best describes your current stage: just launched, under 500 subs, 500–2,000, or 2,000+?

@Carrie Loranger I'm posting three notes per day!
What’s the real reason you haven’t monetized more aggressively yet?
No judgment. I’m curious what the roadblock is. Is it: - Audience size? - Offer confusion? - Fear of charging? - Not knowing what to sell? - Not wanting to sound too salesy? - Something else? - Reply with the honest version. Those answers will shape what I create here.

That's the secret sauce as far as I'm concerned... posting consistently. I don't have an audience built yet, so no emails, and just beginning to set up the Substack newsletter. It's all based on my book!
