Log #48

October 6, 2020

Purchased 2 domains for future projects. One is exploriter.email to house the newsletter. Need to work on the value prop.
Wrote and published the first three IG posts in the ‘experience’ series.
I finished compiling my notes on the Sensemaking course I took in June of 2020 and translated it into a short Twitter thread.
Started organizing post #2 about learning slowly.

Why are you doing this?

Journals are important for clarity, remembering, finding connections, maintaining alignment with reality, etc.

I'm making it public because it's something I'd like to normalize.

To demystify the process of building a business and brand. To show more than just a highlight reel. To motivate me and keep me hungry.

...and because I wanted a page with all monospace font. 🤓

Is this really everything?

Of course not. I left out all the crying, singing, and laughing. I'll get better over time and depending on mood with how detailed I get.

Can I tell you how you're doing it wrong?

Only if you also tell me how you're doing wrong. Shoot me an email at watson@hey.com. I read everything. I can't promise to respond, though.
