Designing Your Ideal Workday
Welcome to Sunday's Solo Episode #475. During this episode,I talk about how to design your ideal workday. This is NOT your dream retirement plan Richard Branson-style, sitting in your hammock after a game of tennis in your private island. This is based on reality... It's meant to be achievable where you can position yourself in the future, many years forward. Here are some highlights: Always start your day with a positive mindset. Don't just write your tasks. Visualise them. The more detailed and specific you are, the more successful you are in achieving your goals. A plan is just a plan without any action. Visualising is the easy part. Actually doing the tasks is another thing.

Building Your Content Strategy
Welcome to Sunday's Solo Episode #473. During this episode, I talk about how you can build your entire week's worth of content from just one piece of 'pillar' content and map our your entire week's social media posts. Your pillar content could be taken from a podcast interview or a blog you've posted on your website, or a talk at an event, a vlog that you've posted on YouTube. And all your week's content will be taken from just this one piece of content. As an example, I take my weekly Q&A podcast episode and repurpose that into something like 7-10 pieces of micro-content to be posted across all my social media platforms. Would you like to know how you can do this with your business?
