Slowly restarting the momentum train 🚂
Hey Reader,
A few months ago I signed up for Waffles n' Work – three co-working sessions on Mondays in September.
Before the sessions started, I had a call with Raina, the organizer. She helped me determine what to focus on this month, and let me just say – it was amazing. Like, the perfect excuse for me to use the mind-blown emoji 🤯
This is obvious in retrospect, but I had a lot of momentum earlier in the year, but once I broke my ankle, the momentum train crashed. And not only did it crash, but it's been really hard to get it started again.
It takes time to build up momentum. I am not just going to jump back into the swing of things (literally or figuratively). I have to take it slow and just start.
To help me do just that, I'm working with a few people this month:
- Raina, as mentioned above
- Corrie, who is helping me figure out my social media plan
- Christine, who is helping me get back on track with workouts (including what that looks like for me now)
- And Tyler, who is helping me walk again 🤩
It's been good, but bumpy. I get stuck in the weeds a lot. Things aren't always how I think they should be or I want them to be.
But, I'm making progress. Very, very slow progress. One could say I'm taking the scenic route 😉
How about you? Are you riding the momentum train, or is it stopped at the station? Are you stuck in the weeds? Reply and let me know.
Best,
Rene
P.S. I have a goal to have 25 market research calls by the end of 2023. If you're creating, launching or marketing a digital product, could we jump on a 15-minute call so I can learn more about you? No sales, no pitches. Learn more and sign up.

Hey Reader, A few months ago I went to the store to buy some new mascara. I've been wearing the same kind for years, but don't need to buy it very often because it lasts me a long time. The salesperson took me over to the section and said, you don't want waterproof mascara (which is what I usually get). You want the regular mascara. So I picked up the regular mascara, checked out and went about life. In the subsequent weeks, I realized why I don't buy regular mascara. I'm a business owner, in...
Hey Reader, These episodes dropped in March 🍀 [Interview] Incorporating print on demand into your suite of products with Tim Krywulak.

Hey Reader, Every year my son's high school marching band takes a trip and marches in a parade out of town. The band keeps the kids super busy for the duration of the 5-day trip. The kids went to Disney (Epcot, Hollywood Studios and Magic Kingdom) plus Kennedy Space Center and Cocoa Beach at the beginning of March. It's an exhausting (but fun) trip. When he got home, he opened his computer, saw how much work he had to do, immediately got overwhelmed, closed the computer and went to sleep. 😑...
