Cautiously Optimistic

By Abe Newmeyer, February 25, 2020

Adaptability & Change

While developing my marketing plan it’s come to my attention that some aspects of my initial launch will require significantly more research. It’ll take more data than I currently have available. That being said, I think it’s best to move forward with what I currently have.

I’ve asked Him for direction and what seems the proper and correct action now is to launch offering one service, proofreading. As we grow and generate revenue, we can offer additional services to our clients but right now it’s imperative to capture the market potential.

This version of my company is more akin to what I’d envisioned before coming to the country over a year ago. It just occurred to me that was my original plan, not the audiobooks but rather editing, cover design, and author analysis, and marketing.

Today, Wednesday, February 25, 2020, I am grateful that:

Even when I can’t recall what I’m supposed to be doing an “intuitive thought” happens and reigns me back in and moving towards the original plan. “From first draft to Published in 30 Days” was the original tagline for FTP Publishing, Inc. and I’d forgotten about that with the prospect of making audiobooks.

Greed under the guise of ambition isn’t enough to fool Him. My purpose remains unchanged and although I’ve remained flexible with the plan of its execution, sometimes it’s best to revisit my objectives and ensure their manifestation.

My website is finished. The only things that remain require task completion on my part but the design team has completed what I’ve paid them for and that’s one less thing to have to get finished.

When was the last time you revisited your goals?

Have they changed?

Have you changed your ways of implementing them?
