Write it down

Whatup Reader!

We're keeping this one short and sweet today, and not just because It’s mid-December and I don’t feel like doing shit. We're keeping this one short and sweet because I want to make sure there’s no fluff to confuse you, no extra words to distract you, and basically zero reasons for you to not take action.

My soft suggestion action item for you:

Write down exactly how you’re feeling right now.

How much work you want to be doing, how much tv you’d rather be watching, how cold you are, how much you want to punch yourself for agreeing to squeeze in that extra patient, how stressed you are, how ready you are to be done with everything once the sun goes down at 3:59pm.

Write. It. Down.

From there, go to your calendar for next year and adjust what you need to adjust.

If you need to block off your schedule, block it off now.

If you need to put in for PTO, put it in now. (Clearly I actually have no idea how that shit works so do whatever needs to be done so that you can have your time off next year.)

If you need to schedule more clients or launches at other times of the year so that you can have time to rest come December, open up those slots now.

If you planned and prepared for this season and you're feeling great now, CLAP FOR YOUR DAMN SELF.

Seasonality is very real, spirality is very real, and you will very much be feeling the exact same way this time next year…so make moves now.

If you’ve been in my ecosystem for basically any amount of time then you’ve likely heard me say this a bunch, but a bunch never, so I’m saying it again.

Write it down and then take action.

Alright, das all I got for you.

Happy Monday, Reader.

Maestro out.

Read time: 3 min 39 sec Whatup Reader! Allow me to start this email off by saying that Rupert, Moose, Lex, and I are all very much safe from the LA fires. We actually live in the one area that has remained in the ‘white zone’ throughout the entirety of this insane disaster, which has been both a godsend and a mindfuck all at once; living life and going about our days while people who live 15 miles from us have lost literally everything. If you follow me on the Instagrams then you’ve seen my...

Read time: 2 min 53 sec Whatup Reader! I already know that a review video hates to see me coming. Yes, today I’m talking about YouTube review videos and not the absolutely INSANE 40th birthday party that I had last week. Like I wrote to my Mafiosos yesterday: Shit was the dopest ever. No notes. What I do have notes about is the fact that there are pretty much eleventy billion different ways to do most things, and rarely if ever is there a clear-cut singularly correct approach. Consider that...
