Hey, Adventurers,

This week, I was a bit behind schedule in writing my newsletter, but I managed to curate some excellent content for reading and learning about new things related to my past activities, which brings me much happiness. The inspiration for this came from a book called 'THE ART OF BEING ALONE'—a great learning resource without the typical self-help book vibes.

I had the opportunity to facilitate various corporate training sessions, providing a valuable experience. Although I usually don't pursue corporate clients nowadays, my focus has shifted towards digital products to increase earnings and evolve into a better digital nomad. Currently, I'm following Dan Koe's work, particularly in writing and digital products, and have begun developing some products.

I've initiated networking on various platforms, where many solopreneurs collaborate and support each other. One significant lesson I've learned is to treat oneself as a brand, offering a variety of skills in the market. This month, I'm set to release six long-form videos focused on goal-setting for 2024. These evidence-based videos aim to be a game-changer for the audience seeking to achieve their 2024 goals—not merely creating a foolish bucket list we often abandon. It's about establishing systems and consistency in our lives, addressing common challenges like joining a gym and giving up after a few days.

Learn to recognize the counterfeit coins, 

that may buy you just a moment of pleasure,

but then drug you for days, 

like a broken man, 

behind a farting camel. 

- Hafiz, Sufi Poet 

This picture helps you understand how I pivoted my career and transformed it into a brand:

3. Understanding the gut-brain connection:

Interesting thread on the gut-brain connection (i.e. why your "gut feeling" is actually a real thing). It seems like scientific (and mainstream) understanding of the importance of the gut microbiome on overall mental and physical health is really progressing. Exciting to see what comes out of the space in the coming years.

If you truly want to achieve your 2024 goals, then use this technique. ⬇️

SMART GOALS ❌

SMARTER GOALS ✅

This framework is called SMARTER goals:

Specific: The viability of your goals depends on how clear they are.

Measurable: Before choosing your goals, you should ascertain that they are measurable, that there is a way you can assess your progress.

Actionable: While indicating the specifics of your goals, you should outline the actions and tasks they entail.

Risky: People who play it safe would most likely remain in mediocrity. Although it is good to adopt realistic goals, taking risks would prevent you from setting the bar too low.

Time-keyed: The chances of achieving a goal with no apparent deadline are bleak. While choosing your goals, you should attach deadlines, time triggers, or frequencies that would keep you on your toes.

Exciting: You cannot resist resolutions and goals if you do not find them interesting.

Relevant: Your goals must correlate with your lifestyle and current circumstances.

Always Remember: Irrespective of how well you picked and timed your goals, it is inevitable that you will find yourself contemplating an exit plan midway.

The tendency to back out is normal. Even those who have made history by doing the inexplicable have suffered failure, obstacles, and reversals at one time or another.

What made them different was the way they rose to the occasion. They found a way to find success against all odds.

Meme Of The Week:

Reminder:

This is my yearly expense on self-development-related apps, aka self-investment. Most of the apps I've been using for two or three years, and I've found myself significantly improved.

Even hardcover books are not in the list; I consider book reading like food we usually buy to feed our minds.

What is the ROI?

Every self-development app teaches me a different kind of learning. It's all about what you consume and what you can create. If you need any guidance related to self-development, feel free to ask. I'm here to help you. 🙏🏻
