Check Your Attitude

Hey Reader,

We all have daily tasks—sorry, chores—that we just have to do.
They are a must.
We can’t get out of doing them.

That might be taking out the trash in your household.
Those tasks also exist in our businesses.

Things that we just have to do.

You probably have tasks that you love to do.
I actually love to write these newsletters.
If I could, I would send you a lot more—just because it’s fun.

In this newsletter, I will try to help us shift our mindset:
That the have-to-dos will become get-to-dos.

You don’t need to love them, but you need to be happy that you get to do them.

Let’s turn our annoying chores into cheerful habits.​
With that change, here are three effects:

  1. Your clients will feel the difference.
  2. Your kids will see the difference.
  3. Your wife loves the difference.

These three will have a lasting impact as a result.

You are living a better testimony and you will receive a better testimonial.

This will change your life.

All it takes is to turn annoying chores into cheerful habits.
It’s a mindset shift.

You need to accept that you need to do them—
but think of it like this:

You get to serve your clients, your kids, and your wife.

Put off the arrogance of thinking it’s beneath you
and put on the humility of doing it as a service to others.

  • Your clients will enjoy working with you.
  • Your kids will model after you and do it too.
  • Your wife will love enjoying your help more.

These are all things influenced by your decision.

Keep chopping Wood!

  • Working with Constraints

    ByJowi

    Working with Constraints Everybody has constraints. We usually try to ignore them. We try to show all the good things and advantages we have. But we don’t want to share limitations we have. Constraints are a powerful opportunity once you use them right. There is a saying that goes something like this: “You can do anything, but you can’t do everything.” The opportunities we have right now seem endless. You think you can conquer the world. Once reality hits, you realize – that you’re still…

  • Clear beats Clever

    Clear beats Clever I have designed 30 websites, launched 60 products. The biggest problem I had was to make myself clear. I played around with titles and the feel of words. Introducing my own language. The feedback I often got was: “I don’t understand what you do.” I just wasn’t clear. My big goal was to be clever. So that’s what I aimed for. The solution to all of it is to write clear. When people can understand you and have a feeling that you speak to them – it changes the game. You want…

    Hey Reader, I like to push myself to test my limits.Sometimes in the past, I’ve pushed myself too far. At 22, I almost had a burnout.I have stomach issues ever since. So: burnout is not really excellence. Striving for Excellence is like driving on a three-lane highway. You shouldn’t drive too fast and lose controland cross over into oncoming traffic. But you also shouldn’t drive too slowlyand steer off into the right side by pursuing perfection. Striving for Excellence has two limits: Don’t…

  • Simple Scales, Fancy Fails

    Simple Scales, Fancy Fails This is a saying that has stuck with me for a while now. I don’t remember when I heard it first. It is an excellent reminder. I tend to overthink, overplan, overanalyze, and overdo many things in my life. There is a sense of perfection. It really has to be all prepared. Every detail has to look seamless. It should look cool. For it just to work is not good enough. Since hearing “Fancy Fails, Simple Scales” I keep reminding myself of that. We always keep thinking of…

  • We’ve got productivity backwards

    ByJowi

    The core idea behind productivity is well-meaning. It is to make our work more productive. That we are able to produce more. I think the core driver is to do a job better. We want to achieve bigger things and so we constantly seek to improve — from riding a horse to driving a carriage to driving a car is an improvement in speed and comfort. The driving question is to improve what we are doing. A farmer does a job better when he can produce more bushels per acre – more tons per hectare. A…

  • The Myth of the Perfect Idea

    ByJowi

    Hey Reader, When I was starting out, I thought business success was in finding the perfect idea. I was working so long on finding ideas, I was so protective over my ideas that I didn’t even share them with others. This is one of the biggest rookie mistakes I see today. It took me years to see that my ideas weren’t going to work out the way I had planned. Then I took a step back, analyzed the situation, and came up with a new idea. This time, I took the idea and shared it. I was not trying to…
