Do you endlessly ponder your options, or can you make quick decisions? I’m 50/50. 3 weeks ago, fellow Creator Institute author Begoña Pinoinvited me to be a guest on her podcast. We had a fun, unscripted conversation about our books. Hers, “Join the Playful Revolution,” is about how play can make us happier & help creativity flourish. Mine, “Blogging on Instagram,” is about using Instagram as a rewarding & easy writing platform.✍️. After I published my book last August, it was frustrating as Instagram announced lots of new features. When I had a chance to produce my hardbound version, I included some of them in a new Afterword . My book also has a dust jacket, so I had 2 extra panels for text. ⏳I spent time at @elliottbaybookco perusing business books for ideas. I knew what to do but designers are the worst design clients, so it took many text & design tweaks before my hardback book was published last month by New Degree Press. After a book is published, a new journey starts with the quest for guest blogging & podcast opportunities . I’m grateful to find generous folks who are willing to share their platforms with me. They give me a chance to reach new audiences. Begoña is one of those people. ️ We’re both new at podcasts but had a great rapport. Toward the end she asked if I’m facing any problems that she could help solve? I told her I need to decide what to do next? She created a simple decision matrix for me that I’m sharing above (swipe right). Now I just need to plug in the variables & see what surfaces♀️. When the podcast is live, you’ll see it in my Linktree.️ I hope you’ll give it a listen! How do you make decisions? Do you toss a coin? Do you list pros & cons , or do you usually intuitively know what to do? . .
