In hindsight, this challenge would be good if I had a bit more experience with products. But products are quite hard so I might have shot myself in the foot from the get go lol
I feel more comfortable promoting my stuff for sure! There was a really turn around week 2 where I had less inner chatter about promoting or asking for stuff.
Great post, Kenny, I especially liked your closing remarks. I'm drawn to that sort of 'unfiltered' behind the scenes content, too. You never know who can relate to something like that and usually when that content impacts someone, it's relatable on a very deep level. This post was like that for me. I remember trying Noah Kagan's $1 challenge in 2017 and it was also eye-opening. Just asking for money outright can be scary and challenging, even if it's just a buck! Tons of lessons to learn.
Glad it resonated, man! And it’s true you never know who might be impacted. A bunch of people never liked my posts or commented but they would still tell me privately they read it. So we definitely have no clue!
And what was the $1 challenge from Noah Kagan? I couldn’t find about it.
Kudos on starting and getting that far! You probably gained valuable experience and grew your audience from the challenge, so I think this is the kind of thing that will pay off down the line
Thanks for sharing! Good on you for calling it. I think 30 days achieves the same lessons as 100?
Out of interest did you learn how to sell things better, like does approaching selling after this challenge not bother you as much anymore?
I think there is something to this exposure therapy type approach, just trying to link it back to business.
Thanks for reading, Chris!

At first I felt a bit disappointed to see that you were taking a pause, but I very much enjoyed reading it. Great write up and insights.
Thank you, Greg! I'm disappointed too honestly but I feel it's the best call for the family. It started to become too much of a strain.

Gracias amigo! And for sure I’m getting close to 1000 followers on Twitter lol
I’m sure it’ll pay off when I’ll focus on products again!
