Hey there, J here.
As usual, wasting none of your time, here's this week’s thought.
Business Lesson - Elon Musk plays video games
Diablo IV is a great game. Nice work by the @Blizzard_Ent team!

Elon Musk has time to play Diablo, but you're too busy huh?
Two options.
You either have completely no control over your time and therefore life.
Or, you're grinding yourself into burnout territory.
Sure, I get it, if you're starting out with a project/business, it does make sense to go all out in the beginning but substantial wins are long-term projects.
If you can't sustain the effort, it makes sense to change the approach.
We need to calibrate our effort across time to make sure we are still standing sane at the end, enjoying the fruits of our smart labor.
I can see how others can make a 3000-word newsletter on this topic, but it’s not my style.
I value your and my time.
The above says it all.
Now that we have the key to long-term success out of the way, here are some announcements from me this week.
If you know someone who needs Shopify services connect us, I'm giving out $225 referral bonuses ;)
Also, I've now converted all my courses into FREE guides:
1. Digital Product Empire with Shopify. The aim of this guide is to get you started with selling digital products on Shopify ASAP.
2. X (Twitter) Product Launcher - A guide based on my personal experience of launching my first product on Twitter to 22,000 people with a (then) 200 follower account. Including a bonus section on ideation and building in public.
Check them out and I’m looking forward to any feedback.
Have a great one!
