Q4 starts October 1, and before the internet starts telling you to hurry up, launch everything, hit every goal, and completely reinvent yourself before December 31—I want to say this: This is not your reminder to panic. It’s not permission to overwhelm yourself, overthink every decision, or start so many things that you don’t finish anything. It’s a reminder that there is still time to share what has already been placed on your heart and mind. That idea you keep revisiting. That lesson you learned the hard way. That process you created for yourself. That offer, resource, app, guide, video, class, or community you haven’t released yet. ☕️👀 Someone may be waiting for exactly that! 💯 What feels ordinary to you could be the explanation that finally makes something click for someone else. Your experience could save them time. Your story could help them feel less alone. Your knowledge could give them the confidence to take their next step. What you know is not valuable only because someone might purchase it. It is valuable because it could be a blessing to someone who needs it. 😫🙌🏽 So allow Q4 be exciting this year not stressful. Not because you have to prove something before the year ends—but because you still have time to let something meaningful leave your hands and reach the person it was meant to help. You don’t have to release everything. But maybe it’s time to stop hiding the one thing that keeps returning to you. -Whit 🫶🏼

We made it to October! 🍂🙌🏽 I know this is when the internet starts yelling about the “final 90 days,” but you don’t have to build an entirely new life before December. You can choose one thing you’ve been thinking about and give it some real attention. An app? An offer? A website? A piece of content you keep putting off? Or maybe your goal is to finish something you already started. 👀 Drop what you’re working on in the comments—and share where you are right now in the process like: Idea stage, halfway there, or almost ready to share? Lets share what we’re bringing to life this quarter! -Whit 🫶🏼

Get this… ChatGPT just unveiled something cool called Dots, and I had to share it with y’all. 👀 A Dot is an AI agent in ChatGPT that you can give an ongoing responsibility. Tell it what you’re working on and what you need it to handle, and it can keep making progress between conversations, bring you results, and ask for your input when a decision comes up. Dots are rolling out gradually, so you may not have access yet. But check out the video below. Also if you’re interested, I made a ChatGPT Work + Dots module to help you plan what task you’d give your dot to do. —Whit 🫶🏼

If work is changing around you, it’s natural to wonder what comes next. But you’ve spent years building knowledge, solving problems and learning things other people would pay to understand. That experience could become consulting, training, a service, a digital product or something you haven’t considered yet. AI can help you explore the possibilities and package your ideas. Your experience is the expertise. So tell me in the comments: What have you done, for how many years, and what would YOU like to do next? It’s okay if you only know the first part. Let’s connect the dots together and see what AI can help you build from there. 👀 You can also explore your ideas with the Offer Builder App in the YAMS classroom. —Whit 🫶🏼

Congrats on building your app 🙌🏽 Before you share the link, you should ALWAYS test it. Here are a few simple steps to help you. Note: Always test on desktop and Mobile (tablet too if you can). HERE’S WHAT YOU DO: ✅ Click everything. Menus, buttons, linked words (aka hyperlinks), and footer links. Do they open the right page? Any 404 error pages? ✅ Look at every screen. Do the images load correctly? Is text cut off? Do you have to scroll sideways on your phone? Did it take a ling time for the page to load? ✅ Use it as if you were the user. Complete the main task the app promises. Does it give you the result or confirmation you expected? ✅ Come back. If people can log in or save work, refresh the page or sign out and back in. Is their work still there? Does the function work? ✅ Notice the wait. Does a page or action feel slow, especially on your phone? When something goes wrong, write down what page you were on, what you clicked, what you expected, and what happened instead. That gives you something specific to fix and test again. I put the fuller App Testing Checklist: Start With the Basics in the classroom. There’s also a Website Testing Checklist and a page on recording what broke and retesting it. Also friendly reminder, you can share your app or website or whatever you’re building here inside Yams so that other members can test what you built for you and give you really good feedback.
