My accountability for the week, and the next six weeks, is to complete my Transformational Coaching certification. There are six modules remaining, and so I need accountability for completing one module per week.

Amazing, @Michael Clegg . Thank you for the callout, and it's super inspiring to see your progress. I've missed you guys on the weekly calls, and I'll be there from tomorrow. I've recently been realising the nature of bottlenecks and have been committing to clearing both the hidden and the obvious ones. Of course, doing this alone doesn't get me far, but they're holding everything up. That's been a recent 20% breakthrough for me: clearing my bottlenecks is the most impactful thing I can do to get things properly moving again because everything is a total compounded mess right now. Other than that, I've burned my boat by launching my artist coaching group–that's a positive driving force, and I'll be fully committing to it. It's helped me see that Ben Hardy's work is just one input into the world of (coaching) psychology, and that there's much more to apply to my working thesis on the psychology of sustained artistic practice. A lot of what we do here is being very effective over there. It's not monetised yet, but plans and models are in place for a full launch in January. I haven't progressed much on the writing front, and I doubt that'll be profitable, but it's an important part of the process. I have a couple of unpaid but significant writing gigs coming up for partners I never would have imagined myself writing for. And those connections came out of the coaching group, which is great. This coaching community brings me new relevance, connections, and support in the art world that weren't there previously. And it's going to expand my existing, already sizeable CRM tenfold. That CRM was initially based on potential writing clients (art galleries), and let's say each of them averages a dozen artists. I will now be approaching each of their artists as well, which I wasn't doing previously, so that's a massive breakthrough for me in terms of potential clients. It's new and daring, and there are people more qualified than me in the community, which was scary, but the response has been very positive so far. My future is definitely on a different trajectory than it ever was before.

@Michael Clegg Goes without saying, but should be said, definitely appreciate the work you've facilitated here, the best community to have a weekly fix of great pointers!

So sorry but I can’t make the call today because there’s the last bunch of stuff to sort out. Next week should be good! May I ask why the calls are on Zoom?
