I actually chuckled reading your checklist and #9: You love your passion more than paying your bills on time.
As a mature-age millennial, I do hold out hope that my zone of genius can align with profit. I’m just not that damn passionate about any one thing (which dilutes your efforts, and as much as I loved Range by David Epstein, it seems that experts do truly win over generalists in the market).
Right now I’m playing in the “Good enough work but it pays the bills” space, which I know I should be grateful for (given the market and everything you share here), yet there is always that tug to nudge in/align closer to great work.
15. A grounded financial and business literacy framework so you’re able to prioritize the right investments and not fall for high-ticket “investments” that promise to help you succeed without any of the other 14 items.
The podcast listener distribution pics are a really powerful graphic on how heavily concentrated listeners are to a limited number of very popular podcasts. Although maybe one question is where does one want or need to be on the graph? The idea of the 1000 "true fans" was floated around the internet for a while to capture the concept of a breakeven/enough of the audience to be sustainable. Sounds like its feeling quite the rollercoaster at the moment but maybe this phase and the forthcoming quiet sabatical also has some amazing insights and secrets yet to be revealed.
Thanks as always for your sharing - super helpful to others in small business / self employed.
Thank you Jenny, as I’m in the thick of pivot, free time, and deep listening, trust, alignment this is good and thought-provoking as always--thank you! I am curious about #15. I do always appreciate the bigger flow that keeps calling me and arranging and organizing itself. I’m so aware of the multitude of generational voices and mindsets--sometimes they all play in me. And yet, truly, there is inherent wisdom and gift in our daring, our courage, our yes, and no. Our own decjj Ohara toon from truth and soul. You’ve surely been an inspiration and guide to me for many years now--thank you. And I trust whatever is brewing in you is continued depth and what the world needs, and what you, Michael, and Rhyder most need for a beautiful, meaningful life. I’m thankful for you on this chilly, snowy Thanksgiving weekend evening, from way up north. 🫶
