Ever felt like your brain is a treasure trove of ideas, yet when the moment comes to create, you're stuck staring at a blank screen? That's why I created this book!
Ever felt like your brain is a treasure trove of ideas, yet when the moment comes to create, you're stuck staring at a blank screen? That's why I created this book!
I don't know if you heard, but I wrote a book and it's a book journal, to be very clear and it was definitely my first experience with self-publishing anything and I knew that I wanted to create something larger and bigger as my second book. But I really just wanted to know what the process was like, and so I chose. It's called the Content Creation Machine Journal and, if any of you have done my program, there is a actual content creation machine that is very digital, but I wanted to find a way to give everyone an option, make it a little bit more accessible. But also, when I first started teaching this, I told everybody to get out a piece of paper. I said get out a piece of paper and write down these words, and then I'm going to tell you what to do. And I was I don't want to say I was amazed. I think I was amazed at the feedback. I always thought it blew my own mind when I did it, but when other people were like, oh my gosh, this can be content, this can be podcast episodes, this can be YouTube videos, this can be reels, this can be so much more blog posts, it can be so much more than just content, and it was beautiful.
Speaker 1:
Whenever I've done this digitally or grab a piece of paper, it's been beautiful to see people realize how much they know, how much knowledge or what I like to call IP intellectual property they actually have in their brain. And there's this crazy thing that happens that they get so much confidence. I didn't know, I knew that much, I had no idea, and so they get so much confidence from this. And it's again, it's just a beautiful thing to watch unfold, because when you can realize and have an aha on your own even if I give you a tool that facilitates it, right, there is it's so much better than me telling you you're amazing, you're an expert, you know more about this than anybody I know, like me telling you, that is great, but you coming up with the knowledge that this is actually true on your own is it's just an amazing thing to watch. And the one thing that I've been blessed to do, especially going through the certification, is seeing people on the other end of a Zoom call. Some of them are my existing clients, some of them were friends, some of them were case study clients, peers but watching them light up when they realize that aha, when they realize I've got this when they realize this is amazing.
Speaker 1:
I'm going to go full force on this Because a lot of times I can tell you what to do and I will tell you what to do. But if I can facilitate it so that you you make the decision of what you're going to do and you have the aha of what you're going to do, it's going to stick and land a lot differently than if I tell you. It's like how many people used to do crossword puzzles or word searches and you couldn't find the answer until you go to the back of the book and you get the answer. But if you just skip that one, move to the rest and finally come back and literally find the answer yourself, how much better do you feel? Maybe you walked around for a day and you just something spurred the answer, something came to you, you remembered something. It doesn't matter Whatever facilitated that change. You came up with that change on your own. You came up with that idea on your own. You came up with the answer on your own.
Speaker 1:
And that is my hope with this book that people you that are listening, read this book. It's very little to read, by the way, but read the instructions, read what I'm asking you to do to get so much clarity on your content and then take that next step to dive in and allow yourself to just write, to just let it flow, to just let the ideas come, and if one doesn't come, skip it and go to the next one. Having ahas on your own is a beautiful thing, and the more you can do that, I believe, the more you're gonna set yourself up for success. That doesn't mean you don't need a community. That doesn't mean you don't need training. That doesn't mean you don't need mentorship or coaching. I mean you don't have to have it, but I do believe it will support you with so many more of those ahas than you ever could have imagined.
