I Have an Idea 💡

WTH is FWI???

I’m often asked, “What the heck is Five Words In?” My quick response goes something like this: “An online community of entrepreneurs and creators who come together each week to learn, connect, build and grow a business and life they love. It’s my tribe!”

FIRST THINGS FIRST

I just love our Five Words In tribe. 🥹 Thank you for being part of a community that stands together, supports each other, and lifts one another up. As Thanksgiving approaches, I want you to know how truly grateful I am for each of you and all of you. 🙏❤️

HEY, WHAT’S THE BIG IDEA?!

Ok, ok. Last Thursday, we discussed the frustration of having things on our to-do list that we really want to accomplish, but we often get sidetracked or derailed by other responsibilities. Sometimes, we don’t get everything done simply because there’s no one holding us accountable - no boss, no coworkers, no employees… just us.

To help with this, I suggested we hold each other accountable by having co-working sessions once or twice a month. We can jump on a Zoom call, share what we plan to work on in the next hour, and then focus on getting things done. Just knowing there are others “with you” in real time can provide the energy boost needed to cross off tasks.

Beth even suggested calling it “Five Words Focus” – I like it! It would be a dedicated time where we come together in this virtual co-working space to focus on our projects whether that's plowing through emails, creating proposals, writing a chapter in your book, updating your website or social profiles, and more.

This would be an added value to your monthly subscription at no extra cost - just more accountability and productivity built into your month.

I’m thinking we kick it off in January with two 1-hour sessions, one in the morning and another in the early evening. Keep reading …

OK, IT’S YOUR TURN

What is your initial reaction? Do you ever feel stuck or go through stretches of inefficiency? Are there tasks on your to-do list that seem to linger, haunting you day and night? If so, this might be the perfect opportunity for you.

Is there a best day for morning (such as 8am CST) or best evening (such as 7pm CST) for grind times?

Hit REPLY and let me know your thoughts … thank you!

WOULD YOU, COULD YOU?

Would you be willing to share this newsletter with someone in your life who could use some inspiration, encouragement and support as they build/grow their business? Thanks! 🥹

Have a blessed day, tribe! ~ Brent
