For The Interested - FTI #342: Attention vs. Action
Attention is valuable.
But not as valuable as action.

Now, on to this week's ideas...

The Starting Five
1. The Most Valuable Advice I've Given To Creative Entrepreneurs
The best moments from the first 25 episodes of my podcast. Not sure you want to watch it? The comments may convince you.
2. My Checklist For Anyone Creating A Product

3. How To Reinvent Your Business In 3 Steps

4. A Solo Creator's $10K-Per-Month Content And Business Playbook
