Happy Sunday!✌️

Welcome to Ponderer's 23rd edition.

Here are 1 idea to ponder, 2 resources to skill up, and 3 tools to try out.

Let’s do it.

PONDER THIS

Work. Finish. Publish.

The Big Idea

Work. Finish. Publish. — Michael Faraday

Many people work on things they rarely finish and never publish.

Plenty of amazing work has been done by people who take it to the grave.

Those who need all the answers before they start publishing, never get started.

Those who act as if they have it all figured out, can’t be trusted.

Those who publish their work can free themselves.

Most importantly, they can help free others along the way.

Unless, of course, they’re simply, well… 💩 shit-posters.

Your pondering thoughts are expected here.

We promise… we are never this bossy.

Something must be in the air. 😉

I made a big mistake.
For years, I have written all my ideas in my notepad.
Published for only my eyes to see.
Here’s the problem:
- no one knew how I thought
- no feedback, iteration or evolution
- no clarity (foggy head- you don’t know what resonates)
