[Creative Biz News #23] Deals Ending Today and the Rest of Your Sunday Recap

Published 14 days ago • 7 min read

“A man’s true delight is to do the things he was made for.” ~Marcus Aurelius

Happy Sunday!

I hope you’re having an amazing day, and that you get to do something today that makes your heart happy!

It’s a weird day here… and I’m not quite sure why. I think I need to spend some time with my journal, and pull some cards before I get into full-on planning mode. I mentioned yesterday that my mind is spinning with all kinds of ideas, and that hasn’t stopped yet. This is one of those times when I feel like I need a whole wall painted with whiteboard paint so I can just draw it all out and see the whole picture at a glance. It frustrates the heck out of me to see and feel the connections in my head, but not to have a space big enough to lay it all out so I can see the connections and puzzle pieces and how everything fits together in once space.

Anyways, it’s a rainy day here, so I’m going to spend the day with my sketch book and see if I can get some visuals down and out of my head so that I can get to work tomorrow on implementing everything.

If you’re a Premium Newsletter subscriber, I’ll be talking about this in this week’s issue. If you’re not already subscribed, you can join us here for only $10/month

I also need to put my big girl pants on and get my plants repotted today. This is one of those things that Shaun always did for me, and it’s my first time trying it on my own, so I’m just a wee bit nervous!

But before that, here’s what I have for you in this week’s recap…
