This is still surreal.
One of my greatest achievements in my entrepreneurial journey.
Two years before when I decided to start tweeting for a side hustle, I never thought I would collaborate with Inter Milan.
I never thought I would meet someone on the other side of the world and partner with them in @HBCoop_
I never knew what was going to happen.
The majority of my methods, strategies and plans failed.
But I never quit.
I went again, again and again.
Every day I inched closer.
Now we collaborate with multiple businesses and continuously expand.
Continually get invites and offers.
2023 had its ups and downs but this year shifted everything for me in the game of life.
Multiple doors have opened.
Forever grateful.

If you are an established entrepreneur or founder your origin story is one of your most powerful narratives.

I’m working on memorizing my TEDx talk.
A technique I use is to record my script and listen to it.
But…
It’s important to record it with no mistakes. Zero.
And read it flat with no inflection. So you can absorb and then add inflection on delivery.

If you have the knowledge.
And you are putting in the effort.
And you are being consistent.
And you are not getting results.
It is either that the opportunity is not what you once thought.
OR
You need wisdom on how to adapt the information to your use case.

It’s amazing what you can change in five years.
If you are not satisfied with where life is at… then start to develop the skill that will change your circumstance.

Three Things I Learned Writing 85,816 Words
1) Find a time to write
If you make the time of day a habit it just happens. I wrote first thing in the morning.
2) Miss a day, but not a week
I missed many days. And a few spans of a couple weeks. I tried not to do that. It kills momentum.
When I’m not feeling it I would get myself to just write a paragraph. That’s it. It got me going again.
3) Have fun!
I wrote a novel. It’s fiction.
So I was determined to not take myself too seriously.
Just enjoy the adventure I was putting on the page.
Writing is way easier when it’s fun.
I have no idea if this book is good. I hope it is. I hope people read it.
But know what?
I wrote a book.
And no-one can take that away from me.
Maybe you can too!
Derek Selinger retweeted
Holy crap.

Just finished the last words.
Editing and whatnot ahead but…
I WROTE A BOOK! HOLY…
