๐ Hi! I'm Dan. I help makers, artists, entrepreneurs, and creatives find the clarity and motivation to get their work out into the world. If that sounds good, let's go! ๐ Hi Reader, It's been a minute. I've been busy with some things that are coming your way shortly. Stay tuned! Before we begin, a quick note: We just passed 8k subscribers. ๐ฅณ It's unbelivable! A decade ago when I started this, all I wanted was 10k subscribers. That's when the gurus said I'd have "made it". But it became clear quickly that 1) it was going to take a long time, and 2) subscribers don't correlate to success. Both are still true. 10k is still a long way off.

Heard him? Heard his story? It's quite amazing!" Elrod's book just about started the "morning routine" movement. His book is great. It's a fantastic way to bring intention and focus to your day. I think I'll revisit it. Mexico City ๐ฒ๐ฝAgain from Nick C.: "Mexico City is just like New York, only 40% as expensive, tropical, and I get to practice Spanish!" I've only been to Mexico City briefly. But I loved it. I often threaten to move my family there! How to Do Laundry
