Say no more (literally).


Hey Reader,

You don’t need more time. You need fewer “yeses.”

Every time you say “yes” to one thing, you’re saying “no” to something else.

Usually, it’s your peace, your priorities, or your actual business goals.

Here’s the truth: You’re not going to grow by cramming more onto your plate.

You grow by choosing what stays on the plate, and what doesn’t even make it to the buffet.

Let’s practice.

Start saying “no” to:

  • Random opportunities that don’t align with your goals
  • Content you feel obligated to make, but don’t enjoy \
  • Collaboration requests that drain your energy
  • Projects that keep you busy, but not better

Start saying “yes” to:

  • The one thing you’re focused on for the next 30 days
  • Tasks that grow your audience, your list, or your revenue
  • Systems that give you time, energy, and sanity back
  • Offers that align with your actual business (not just your hobbies)

This isn’t about being rigid. It’s about being intentional.

Less noise. More traction.

You’ve got this.

~ Jeff

I appreciate you.

Hey Reader, Your first digital product doesn’t need a funnel, automations, or a 47-step launch plan. You just need a solid product and a simple way to deliver it. Here’s how to build it without overbuilding: Pick the simplest format Choose what’s easiest for you to create and easiest for them to use. PDF? Great. Google Doc? Perfect. Loom video? Go for it. Notion template? Cool. Don’t overcomplicate this. Your goal is to help them solve a problem—not impress them with your tech skills. Use...

Hey Reader, In our EDUpreneur Mastermind last week, we chatted a bit about SEO (Search Engine Optimization) in today’s world, with AI continuing to take over. So I wanted to share an analogy that might help make this typically confusing topic make a little more sense. (we’ll see how I do) The reality is, how we’ve always approached SEO in the past doesn’t work (or at least not as well) as it used to. We need to think about it differently now. The problem is, SEO has always been confusing,...

Hey Reader, I said it before, and I’ll keep saying it: AI isn’t the future anymore. It’s just part of the environment now. “AI-powered” no longer impresses anyone. It’s expected. Everyone uses it. Every tool has it built in. Every platform integrates it. Every update mentions it. And yet, most of us feel more overwhelmed than ever. Not because we aren’t using AI. But because we’re constantly wondering if we’re using the right AI. Here’s the reality AI tech companies don’t want to admit: Most...
