This: "Here it is. Do the work." -has stuck with me since I read it yesterday.

It's from the foreword of a book titled Do The Work which we're discussing here:
https://www.facebook.com/lynnterrybiz/posts/2410193335659455

You can get the audio version of that book free and the digital version under 5 bucks.

📚 That bit came from the foreword by Seth Godin, where he said:

"Here's a keyboard, connected to the entire world. Here's a publishing platform you can use to interact with just about anyone, just about any time, for free. You wanted a level playing field, one where you have just as good a shot as anyone else? Here it is. Do the work."

BAM! ✔️ Does that hit home, or what?!

See this post - you may love the book too. It's definitely speaking my language! 🙂


Taking Fast Action (Free Downloads & Live Example)

We all have plenty of ideas and plenty of resources. And if you don't, you can easily get them! The biggest thing that holds most people back from seeing results is taking ACTION on those ideas, or USING those resources.

As one example, Alice Seba is offering a free set of quote graphics this week that includes the PSD source files. You can use them as is, edit them, add your own branding or colors or images, or to make it easy: you can upload them to Canva and customize them there.

Nice, right? I downloaded it of course...

But if you do NOTHING with it, that's just a waste of your time and hard drive space. ;-)

Instead of over-complicating the process, ask yourself:

What can I do RIGHT NOW with what I have?

I picked one of the free graphics and ran with it...

I used one AS IS on my niche Facebook page today if you'd like to see a live example to help spark some creative ideas:

While you're looking at that ^ ask yourself: How could I use that idea in MY niche or for MY topic?

The quote graphics are free, and you're welcome to "model" the way I did mine with your own angle, something relevant to a current promotion you're doing maybe.


More Free Downloads & Free Ideas To Run With...

This is another thing I downloaded myself this morning, NOT to clutter my hard drive but to actually USE and put into action this weekend. ;-)

How to Create Your Own 30 Day Niche Challenge… in ONE day.
FREE 8-Step Niche Challenge Planning Worksheet

You can easily use that ^ to build a niche email list, re-engage your list & audience, start a niche Facebook group or get your Facebook group ACTIVE again.

💡 Running a challenge (even a shorter one) is a great way to stir up some FUN and profitable activity in your niche, with the bonus of building your list & audience!

p.s. Here's just one of the free graphics in the set you can download. You get the source files too so you can change the fonts, change the colors, add your branding or your own background images, etc.

This is the one I used in the live example I shared with you above too:
