Creators often fall into the “I need to pivot” trap in their businesses, when they really need to stick to their one thing. We feel insecure about what we are doing, and think we need to play in a new space, or in every space.

Most creators focus on the wrong metrics when building their business. They chase followers and content volume, missing what actually drives sustainable success.

Most creators don’t think about how they use their time when building their creative business. That’s why I admire how @jay.blog navigates life as a creator and a new dad. Recently, he shared how costly it’s been *not* to be 100% dialed in when it’s time to work.

It's tough to create and be angry at the same time. I spent part of today paying attention to the news, and part of the day trying to focus and channel into good things in my business.

The #1 myth about creating with a full-time job... You think the reason you’re not creating is because you don’t have enough time. But that’s NOT the real problem. Here’s the truth: If more time was the solution, every full-time creator would be *crushing* it.

It sounds great to be your own boss until you realize you're way too nice to yourself 😅 For my business, I would treat deadlines like the pirate code, mere suggestions, that could be pushed infinitely. Why? Because I was flexible with my commitments to myself.

Trumps original sin this time around is the unconstitutionality of DOGE, right? No law gives DOGE authority, or federal resources. It’s blatant destruction of congressionally establish organizations and spending. Pretending to have congressional power of the purse, etc. Am I missing something?

Burnout isn’t a badge of honor. If you’re fainting from exhaustion, something’s wrong. A YouTube creator I know passed out after a 3-hour live stream. No breaks. No water. Just pure grind.

Hey creators, what are your current top struggles, outside making your thing? For me: 1) It’s feeling like I should be doing more, in more places. Even if I’m struggling with podcasting + coaching each week 2) Reaching out to peers and folks in a way that feels cool and not awkward
