It’s been… 1 YEAR of WRITING this NEWSLETTER.
Every Friday.
52 Fridays in a row.
Give me a second, I’m gonna just give myself a pat on the back.
But - Most importantly...
Thank You ALL for Subscribing!!
…and I mean ALL 👇
This is the beginning…
The goal was to Get Unstuck.
…and start writing.
Now - I’m starting the journey on LinkedIn.
Bit of a Cringefest…
But I’m committed to grow on Linkedin for the New Biz.
My MISSION is to HELP OTHERS get started on their Content Journey.
This is my GOAL. 🎯
—> I’m starting with 1-On-1’s (Sign up!)
Now, to be transparent...
This Newsletter I treated as a “Step 1” in MY Content Journey.
I haven’t monetized it.
I haven’t tried to grow it.
I haven’t tried to use it as a pick up line at the bar “Hey, I’m Jonny, want to subscribe to my newsletter?” 😏
But now… I’m ready.
Lessons Learned
#1 Making a Commitment
Without a commitment… this would’ve died.
It starts HERE.
Nothing “great” happens in under a year.
During the year, you’ll pivot.
You’ll see what parts of the “new thing” you like and what you don’t.
Follow your instincts.
#2 Consistency
Weekly Deadlines forced me to write every week.
The process has evolved…
But each week… I felt more confident in my voice.
I realized, I didn’t need to be a “great writer”.
I just needed to sound more like myself.
That took repetition.
#3 Accountability
Knowing each week, this newsletter was going out to Human Beings…
I had “no outs”.
#4 Trust The Process
Whatever process YOU DECIDE.
It doesn’t matter how others do it. Successful or not.
It’s Your Process.
Trust it… and get started.
#5 Have Fun
I’ve enjoyed this…
Sometimes, waking up early on a Friday and HAVING to do this (Yes, I know I could’ve done it before.. but there’s something about reflecting on the week..that only hits on a Friday) is kind of annoying.
But… when the words flow.. and the images start to pop in my head… it’s fun. 🥳
Whether it’s writing or video or sewing…
Find something you enjoy the process of and share it.
You won’t regret it.
You’ll only regret not trying it.
I want to THANK YOU ALL again for joining me on this journey….
I appreciate it. ❤️
THE BEST IS YET TO COME!!!
Lots of Love!
Jonny G.
