Creativity Doesn't Need an Ulterior Motive

The other day someone took note of my new daily blog post.

“You’re launching something big,” they said.

“No,” I replied. “I’m just a writer.”

We’ve gotten so used to there always being an ulterior motive, that we’re suspicious when there isn’t one.

Do the thing you’re called to do, especially when you have no motive.

Do Extraordinary Work. From Anywhere.

I run business experiments in remote work, internet publishing, newsletter growth, and using AI to make your projects pay so well your Stripe notifications start sounding like a slot machine at a Reno bowling alley. This is not a newsletter about fish.

    Free. Daily or weekly, you pick.
