When I kicked off 2018, this is what I said my motto would be.

Create not consume.

I figured it’s a new year and it’s time for new goals. Now that we’re over a month into 2018 I’m excited to say I’ve stayed true to this motto. I have plenty of things brewing that are being executed as I planned.

Last year my motto was “The time is now.” and it was fitting for 2017. I felt like I executed on everything I set out to do last year but for some reason this year feels different. I’m ready to take on more and raise my bar to the next level. And just like everything in life, things change and it’s time to adapt to the new year. I am fired up to use everything I’ve learned over the last few years and putting it into building, making and creating again.

And let me clear, as you create it’s not always some new shiny product, new business, etc. Simple things like pushing more content on YouTube or using those extra hours at night to work on that project. Not everything has to be some big ordeal or announced to the world. Just be honest with yourself, your goals and go out there and just do.

Expect to see my blog fill back up with new content on my progress, finishing the “How to build a Marketplace” series, thoughts on business and everything else in between.

What about you?

If you want something better when it comes to what you do everyday, steal this motto this year. Stop waiting or watching. Just do. There’s no secret or one moment where it all changes. It just all adds up after you finally decide to start. Here’s to creating, not consuming.

What are you going to create in 2018?
