Something I wrote_

Should we be focusing on improving our weaknesses or bettering our strengths?

Here's my take→


Something I found_

"If you're not at least a little bit nervous about the thing you're creating, you can probably dig deeper." - Jeremy Enns

I'm nervous about my book and thegarage.studio. I think that is a good sign.

See you in 3 days_

OB.//025 30th_December_25 Welcome back, 3 things today. Something I wrote, something I found, and something else. All to help you work on your business. Let's go. _iain. Something I wrote_ We all dream of a revenue number that makes the stress disappear. "Once I hit £10k a month, things will feel calm." Then it becomes £20k. Then £50k. And yet, the anxiety never really goes. Because it's not the size of the numbers that creates stress. It's the thing itself → Something I found_ 11 lessons...
