#15: Launching & Writing #12weeks

    • Persoonlijke dagboeken

This call was recorded on 1 September (again, apologies for the gap between recording and publishing)

Here are some of the things we managed to discuss:


Since launching the email course (http://donewithgrace.com), Haider also managed to launch the ebook version of the email course, as well as an online course on writing (https://haideralmosawi.teachable.com/p/a-way-with-words/ - currently text-only) 
Haider shares some of the benefits writers can expect to gain from the writing course and how common writing obstacles can be resolved
We discuss balancing art/inspiration with sticking to a process, which can perfectly be summed up with the popular quote: "I write when I’m inspired, and I see to it that I’m inspired at nine o’clock every morning."
Some causes of writer's block (remember: writer's block is a symptom with different possible causes of it)
How Haider used Teachable.com to create his online course (and the friction he experienced using it)
Abdulmohsen asked Haider: Will you create more products or focus on the ones I have? (listen to find out!)
Abdulmohsen shared an update on the mini-guide he's writing for selecting business ideas
Tip: As a creator, sometimes being a curator is a great form of contribution (don't assume you need to produce everything yourself. Directing your audience to existing resources is also valuable)
Haider shares the reason why he writes (hint: it's not because he's an expert in the topics he writes about)
Abdulmohsen continues to kill it with his habits using the Streaks app, following his strategy of "systems over goals"
First step to building a habit is.... 🥁🥁🥁 CARING about building the habit!
Abdulmohsen shares a juicy update on his physical table/tray product (and the next call should be even juicier! 😍)
A tip on "design iteration": See it as a stairway, not a cycle that involves "going back", since every iteration is progress upwards (at least in learning what's worked and what hasn't)

Listen in to learn more, and we hope you'll feel inspired to start your own 12 weeks of progress!
