I'm going to try to do the format I originally wanted to do but ran into a technical issue. The way it's suppose to work is I make this main post and then I add posts for the day and date. Then the daily update goes under the day and date.
Like this...
The first time I tried doing this I wasn't allowed to immediately comment on my post. I'm hoping I side step this issue by posting the initial thread earlier in the day and then being able to add my update later. We'll see how it goes! :)
i love that you're doing this!

✔️(ish) 12 videos
So I recorded 12 videos, but I didn't get them sent out today because I'm going to bed instead of staying up to send videos. Why? Because I have two video calls early in the morning.
Of the 12 videos I sent out 6 people scheduled on Calendly and one scheduled a time to meet in person (58% response rate in under 24 hours). These are all people I know, and I'll be reaching out to people I know for... a while. :) The community I'm building is suitable for many different kinds of people.
I have a feeling I'll keep the personalized video invites thing going for a while. I look forward to experimenting with personal videos in different communities when I tap out my personal network.

✔️ Sent 12 videos
Really strange day today. This bird flew out of nowhere, landed on my shoulder, then my head and... went and got a cage for it and... now I have a bird... that was not scheduled... lol
Got the 12 videos recorded and sent! I think I can do another 12 tomorrow. :)

✔️ Clean up Patreon page
✔️ Set up Calendly
❌ Send 12 videos
I ended up spending WAY too much time messing with Patreon but... it was probably necessary. It stills needs more work of course, but now I have a basic framework I can build from.
I suppose having all three was ambitious, even on a day off. >.< All I have on my plate for tomorrow is shooting videos. I'll probably take some notes along the way.

I stayed up WAY too late last night playing Death Stranding for a friend online. Then I got up late. Then I was really tired later... lol
While I didn't get many project related things done today it did inspire me to plan what I want to get done tomorrow.
Tune in tomorrow to see what actually gets done! lol

Such a busy day today! Wife had to go to the hospital for a routine check up and wanted company and buddy's wanted to smoke cigars... can't say no to that! lol
I got my first Patron only video up today. That felt pretty cool actually. Was the first time I made video for such a specific audience. Totally different than a daily vlog that's being made for "public consumption" (that said the videos on my channel haven't been very consumable lately... lol)
Then I edited a video a friend and I shot on Sunday. I NEVER edit videos anymore (which makes them not so consumable... lol) I found out you can do cool video intros inside of Canva. I had only used that for image editing before today.
And last but not least, over the weekend I was working through a digital marketing course I bought 12 years ago which had been updated for 2020. He recommended downloading the free book from http://60secondsaleshook.com/ (it's a friend of his). The videos are honestly better than the book, but the book is a quick read (PDF with large font).
Here's the second draft of what I produced from utilizing the book (and notes from my buddy's course). My final draft might look nothing like this one, but it will give you an idea of what you might produce if you download the book and watch the videos.

I'm Casey Abbott Payne, a 40 year-old martial artist, vlogger, writer, gamer, and personal development junky from Milwaukee, WI. I’ve been hooked on personal development ever since reading “Awaken the Giant Within” by Tony Robbins’ back in high school but things never clicked for me. I read everybody! Steven Covey, Dale Carnegie, Napoleon Hill, Brian Tracey, Jack Canfield, Tim Ferriss… and still, nothing ever clicked. No matter what I did, life always felt like a struggle!
Then I discovered the secret ingredient. Have you ever had to learn workflows? Whether it’s cooking fries or sending TPS reports, every job has them. Things clicked when I turned what I learned from personal development giants like Tony Robbins into lifeflows (workflows for life). Focusing on lifeflows had two amazing effects. Goals I thought would take me years to reach took months and, even better than that, the process was even more fun than reaching them!
Now I teach this simple, easy, and repeatable system I used to make things click for myself to others. I call it “Flow to Your Dream”.
