Pressing on despite feeling overwhelmed (5th & 6th launch of 31 launches)

Published about 2 years ago • 1 min read

I felt like I was just starting to get a handle on things.

Then yesterday a big idea took hold of me and I worked straight through until 2:30am when I launched it:

⚡️ Animatize ⚡️

It's a free app that lets you create an animation just by moving your mouse around! 🐭🎬

I got tons of great feedback and support on Twitter, which made me really happy. All together, 85 interested people checked it out yesterday and it got a 60+ likes!

I was so enamored with it, I spent the entire morning fixing bugs and adding improvements. Not to mention recovering from working all day yesterday...

That leaves me with nothing to launch today... 😭

So, what am I going to do? Not launch anything?

🙅‍♂️No way!

But I'm also not going to burn myself out working for the next 24 hours to prep 5 launches.

Instead, I'm going to work on 5 different chapters of MVL Guide (my guide to launching projects fast). I'll have rough drafts of each chapter up on MVL.guide by the end of the day and I'll be revising them over the coming week.

Warm wishes and happy almost weekend! 🕺
