I just launched my website and my first product. A few months ago I was wasting time action faking:
The journey to discovering my purpose was hard. Balancing it with my full time job was even harder (and still is). After one of my hour-long tourist transfers from the airport, it actually came to me.
One of my favourite things at work is chatting with my passengers and giving them advice on what to see, where to eat and what to do locally. Combine this with my love of travelling and a knack for writing (this turned out to be my flow state task) and this is how Roads ReDiscovered (my business) was born.
I help travelers have unforgettable experiences with digital travel guides and personalized itineraries. I write and create only what I am knowledgeable about and this is what I love to do. My first guide took me a few months to fully complete, from design to final proofreading. Once it was complete I knew I just couldn't let it sit on my computer and I had to launch it ASAP. A few days of learning and creating in Wordpress and it was done!
I was so proud.
The next thing to do is to build a community and brand around it. Luckily this is where I don`t have to waste time (even though its necessary, this part wastes my energy for nothing) because it is one of many things my girlfriend does in her SMM agency. She also created my logo to save me from the struggle of spending money and time on Fiverr!
If anyone wants to check it out and get an idea or two, or give some constructive criticism, here's the link:
Roads ReDiscovered
I`ll post any updates I have in this topic.
- Reading Books to get "inspiration" and "ideas"
- Watching YouTube videos to learn about business ideas
- Journaling for hours and days on various business ideas that actually got me nowhere.
- Saving social media posts that would "help me" in the future and being on Instagram "for business purposes".
