All of your excuses are dead

Excuses are dead

The good news is that you don’t have any excuses left. You need to do great work.
The bad news is that you don’t have any excuses left. You need to do great work.

The picture above is my computer. I had 20 minutes open yesterday so I opened up Scrivener, grabbed a cup of coffee and started writing. What I came up with won’t win me any awards but I know it’ll help someone. It took 20 minutes to create something that has never been created. It was a birth. It was beautiful. The internet allows ideas to spread from the streets of oppressed countries to our living rooms. That same tool allows you to find kindred spirits, fans, friends and customers. It’s just a tool though. You have to use it. You are the missing link.

You don’t need to have fancy tools to create great things

You don’t have to own a Mac (but it helps).
You don’t have to own Scrivener (but it helps).
You don’t have to have a lot of free time, I don’t.
You have to stop making excuses for not doing the work.

Tools for inspiration and instruction to create great stuff

If you don’t feel inspired then read this book by Julien Smith (it’s free).
Then read this book by Steven Pressfield (it’s $6.29).
Then write something. Start something. Perfect it later. Create it now.

You don’t have excuses anymore. Sorry, and you’re welcome.
