Did you HIT your January Targets?
Did you do the things you planned to do at the start of the year?
Let us take a deep dive into the last month.
I have been thinking about sending out this email to you for a while. But you know what I realized?
Thinking is the enemy to taking action!
Instead, I have made it a habit to do MORE things that lead me to TAKE ACTION.
So, today that meant I had to listen to a podcast on updating my blog readers. Then I decided to take action and draft this email!
Oh … did I tell you that I launched The IMG Roadmap Podcast (click highlighted items to open in new tab) in January? This was one of my 2020 goals and so here we are!
The podcast has been downloaded 1.2K times since it launched Jan 1 2020! Like I cant even believe it!
You can find it where ever you listen to your favorite stories such as Apple, Google, Spotify (click highlighted items to open in new tab) etc.
