5-Bullet Monday #169: Things I Found Cool this Week
Happy Monday!
Quick reminder that you can now access the Productivity Bundle.
It's massive value and an INSANE discount. It's highly I'll do anything like this in the future.
And if you get it in the next 48 hours, I'll also include My EXCLUSIVE course ‘Which Procrastination Personality Are You?’
(This is only for FAST Action Takers! )
On to the Medley ;)
What I'm sharing—
Why you should stop asking "Can I squeeze this in?" by Tara McMullin:
"So we need a different question to assess our capacity before we give the go-ahead. Try this one: “Do I have what I need to do this well?”"
What I'm pondering—
"I am a slow walker, but I never walk back."
—Abraham Lincoln
What I'm reading—
How to be a Productivity Ninja by Graham Allcott.
Revisiting this one as it has a nice chapter on email management.
What I'm watching—
Only Murders in the Building.
Three strangers bonded by their love of true crime podcasts record their own to accompany their investigations of murders in their building on the Upper West Side of New York.

“I think I need to take more sales calls.” I told my girlfriend. She said, “Why?” “You hate doing them. So why do them? How can you get more clients without taking calls?” She goes on. And that was it. My hand smacks my forehead. My lightbulb moment. Why would I force myself into something I dread? Especially when I could focus on a better way. A way that felt natural to me.

You will learn how to: Stop wasting hours on unqualified sales calls. Start selling with conversations that convert. Land your next 3 high-ticket clients using just a simple Google Doc. You will transition from burned...
Here’s my shameless last pitch for you for 2024: Re: The Everything Bundle Do you trust just any mechanic to work on your car? I’d hope not. It’s quite a big deal. Your life is at stake every time you enter that vehicle. To make a mistake could mean death. How about a mechanic who’s spent the last 10 years of his life ruthlessly and passionately studying the art of being a car mechanic? He invested thousands of dollars and hours in his craft. He even helped other small-time and big-time...
