Did you have a think about this question yesterday:
👉 What's one amazing thing you'd like to achieve in the next 1-2 years, even if it seems unlikely right now?
If so, I'd like to challenge you to go one layer deeper... does your amazing thing fall into bucket 1 or 2:
Both are great, but require different focus.
For bucket #1, you may need to grow your network or invest time in partnerships.
For bucket #2, you might need to work on positioning and offer testing.
Of course, ALL of those activities are worthwhile regardless of your path - so knowing your destination helps focus your efforts.
Your time is not infinite, especially as a one-person show.
Know your capacity, know your amazing thing... then build the plan in reverse.
For self-employed creatives, normal business traps are easy to fall into and overcomplicate things - but they’re totally avoidable when flying solo.
