Sometimes, You Do It Wrong
Trip-start to the new blog. Hardly any readers yet, but that’s to be expected.
I did everything the wrong way around; and I’m going to do it again.
Because; what’s to write about on the blog before we’ve finished putting together the Member Vault?
I have nothing to sell and the energy is going towards getting that up and running. Not sure I want to post the leftovers here.
As well; I’m playing around with sentence structure and working on the writing technique for the first time in ages. Notice the fragments and other weird stylistic changes in this piece.
Plan
I don’t want to talk about “plans” going forward. Going through the old blog, there was a lot of talk of what we were going to do; and that’s fine, it had its place and time.
But if you’re going for the big effect, you make a slight note of a plan, just enough so that you can come back and say, “See… told you so!” when you make it.
Case in point:
This is a cool target.
It's an even more cool target when combined with passive income digital assets.

I have a plan. I’m not going to mention it publically.
It’ll inform a lot of the blog stuff, as is customary with the blog; it’s only ever been a live and public diary of the learnings I’ve received from being waylaid with a hundred different ideas.
And it’ll be material for the future private Vault stuff once we’ve moved away from the Foundations material I’m starting now.
Outside of that though, where I only talk about it indirectly, no more mention until we hit the “overnight success” portion of the months-long project.
And I’ll Do It Wrong As Well
I’m probably going to launch the Vault long before its ready in my eyes.
I’m going to ignore my friend who tells me to add two updates a week and charge 3x the price I’m planning on charging for it.
And I’m going to ignore the voice in my head that tells me to do the perfectionist thing with every lesson, article and book chapter.
Because every plan changes when confronted with reality anyway, and this one will be no different.
Besides, we are all the worst at judging our own plans and the merits and values of our work.
So we do it wrong, and then we keep going until we get it right.
