If you live a comfortable life at work, at home, and in your mind then you can stop reading. If you fight fear, then keep reading.

Fear doesn’t run away scared. You can defeat it, though.

What Fear Says 1000pxFear is my greatest enemy, and it attacks in many ways. That’s why I’m creating the “What Fear Says” series. This series can be read in less than an hour that will help you understand how fear works. The first topic I’m tackling is Comparison.

To be clear, I’m not lecturing you on how to defeat fear. Fear is never defeated because it never goes away. We can avoid it by hiding, but we can’t avoid it if we want to make a difference. You wish to make a difference, so you’ve got to understand and confront fear.

Fear only goes away if you’re doing something that’s unimportant.
Fear is a sign that you’re going in the right direction on your creative journey.
Fear is not a stop sign; it’s a mile marker to let you know that your trip isn’t over.

If you fight fear, then you’re doing something important. The “What Fear Says” series will help you fight back against fear.

To combat an enemy, you must understand it. That’s why I’m creating the “What Fear Says” series. The first book is about COMPARISON.

These books will be easy to digest and full of stories about how fear works. I’m giving it away as soon as it’s done (by the end of March 2016) in exchange for your email. It’ll be available in print and on Amazon soon too, but ideas spread when we uncage them, so that’s why I’m giving it away if you want it.

There’s no “course” at the end. There’s no mastermind called Fear Warriors that I’m going to convince you to join. Maybe one day I’ll have more ways to help you fight fear but right now I’m taking this project one step at a time. Today it’s about finishing the first book. I hope you’ll sign up to get it and spread the word.

Why You're Still An Artist

Every child is an artist. They’re not an artist simply in title, but in practice. Children are artists because we expect them and then equip them to be artists. Somewhere along the way our children, our artists, stop becoming artists.

You can change this for your children and for yourself.

3 essential elements of selling a product on-line

1. Discover a need.
2. Find other people to help you create something that fills that need.
3. Put it on-line with a “Buy” button.

Old Cash Register by http://www.sxc.hu/profile/bakuninja

You were probably expecting a recommendation on a ecommerce solution or video hosting service for your screencasts. The problem with worrying about those parts of the product is that they don’t really matter. Maybe they matter 5%.

What people want are their needs met and their desires fulfilled. I recently discovered a need regarding a program I used every single day on my mobile device, laptop and web. I asked for someone to help me and found the perfect person. Now we’re putting it on-line (that’ll take about 30 days). Find a need, find help, find a way to deliver it. As long as people have needs you have an opportunity to create something that help them. Whether they pay for it is up to you but don’t overcomplicate it. Don’t think you have any excuses. We don’t.

What need to you see?
Who are you going to ask to help?
When are you going to put it on-line?
