Transcript: Mischa Z: 00:07 Welcome to another episode of the Bitch Slap The Accelerated Path To Peace podcast. A couple of things going through my mind today, this morning, um, sort of coming out of the summit, there's a lot of minutiae stuff to do. And along the lines of, you know, this pressure, well, well, the, I need to clean up my Facebook profile and then join there's this way. You can start to build an audience. You pick three to five Facebook groups that are people that you want to interact with and you every morning, do a value post and respond to three questions on those in those groups. And part of that is having the, they, the group I'm in encourage you to have your Facebook profile cleaned up first. Doesn't have to be perfect, but just, you know, a certain way, like, um, how do I describe the certain way?
Mischa Z: 02:00 Save it for another, another episode. Um, and then along with that, Rachel Miller, I heard this little talk from Rachel Rachel Miller, and she encourages you to post once a day and gives you some cool ways to post. But again, her thing is, one of her things is have your profile cleaned up. So I need to clean up my profile. Is there sort of next steps? One of the other next steps was start emailing my list. So a 400 person list that I now have coming out of the summit. And so in a perfect world, I would be emailing that list consistently and that some point have an offer for that list or a product to sell. So the first email I was to send was one saying, Hey, here's my podcast, listen like subscribe. And of course my podcast name is Bitch Slap ...The Accelerated Path To Peace.
Mischa Z: 03:12 And all of a sudden I had tremendous insecurities around my podcast name. I was like, man, I'm going to perhaps offend some people. And so coach Vince very graciously said, Hey, we do want to have a little bit of a polarizing, you know, you've got your middle ground, which is boring, the center, which is boring. And we don't need to think of this in terms of politics. I think when we start saying center left and right, people will automatically think politics, but you can think of it however you want. But so the center is boring, then you've got your extreme left and right, which is the crazies let's say. And then in between center and left and in between center and right is polarizing. And so a polarizing message and what we're up to can be good because you want people to, um, either be all in or be like still listening, but Pissed off. Perhaps is a way to say it, or you're, you're sparking them to think, I'm just recording it.
Mischa Z: 04:30 Recording, go got a podcast episode every day. Sometimes it's easy. Sometimes it's challenging. Now I get to do an email every day and commit to that email every day to my email list. So I have tremendous fear around that. Um, but I get to do that. Um, and then the next thing on the list, there's a few things going on, refine my avatar and what is the problem I'm going to solve? I've got to nail down the avatar and the problem I'm going to solve. And so coming out of the summit, I have a much better idea of the avatar or I can clean up my avatar, refine my avatar as well as, um, as well as the problem I will solve for them. So there, that's kind of cool. Um, and then, um, I've got to come up with a product or my web hell, what am I, what the solution, what's it going to be? Um, so all of that together in a big pile, I'm like, I can't do it. So I have screened phrase all of that together in a pile and there's some more stuff I'm sure I've forgotten. Um, but that's the general outline of next steps. And boy, when I look at it all as one big pile, I'm like, I can't do any of it and this'll never happen.
Mischa Z: 06:15 So I'm focused on, let's get the email together to send to my list, talking about the podcast and clean up the Facebook profile, then that will create space for the next two steps. Um, thank you for listening. Hopefully if you're trying new things and growing to new ideas and perhaps leaving a job and starting a new job or starting a new business, you will relate to much of this and how it can feel overwhelming and, and the fear, the fear that can creep in, like I'll never get it done. This will never happen. How can I possibly, um, how can this possibly monetize too? That's another question. The fears around monetization.
Mischa Z: 07:25 How about that for a stream of consciousness? How about that for this stream of conscious ness, I'm endeavoring to persevere the outlaw, Josey Wales, keep at it. I can tell you the value of a coach was so powerful. I talked to coach my coach Vince today, and it was so good. Like he, um, I don't think he was trying to do this, but the way he was talking about next steps and all this and, and, and helping me craft a vision for moving forward, it was all assumptive. Like, this is this just the next step you'd do on your way to success. And, uh, that felt really good. It's like, oh yeah, okay. Of course this is just the natural next step. So you do it, not even questioning whether I should be taking the next steps. That is the key bit, right? Like, no, you just do these next things.
Mischa Z: 08:34 Cause that's where you are on your way to success. And when I say success, you know, with the business, yeah, we'll see more, will be revealed. I'm trying to detach my ego from that. But of course, as we're crafting new business opportunities, you hope success is the natural outcome. And I love this following the steps. I talk about this all the time, follow the steps of the program you are going to choose to follow. And it's almost like the results have to materialize. Now the timing of all that, that's another story. Um, but anyway, I'm right in the middle of that. I, uh, yeah. So lastly, let me just say that I am consciously right now trying to be easy on myself, about where I am in this process, where I am as I'm tackling the next pile of stuff to do, because that can be a source of egoic frustration.
Mischa Z: 09:56 I should be farther on not far enough. You start, I can beat myself up. I start to compare compare mode. Um, and I think one of the big lessons for me to learn is to be happy where I am in regards to this type of stuff too. Like many aspects of my life. I'm completely happy where I am and on the journey and enjoying the ride, this type of business thing. Sometimes I can want the nugget at the end now to satisfy my insecurities, my ego, um, you know, quell my fears when it's still all about the journey and, and embracing the moment. Yes. And then how can I be of service? Of course. So my hope is, as I'm doing episodes now, I'm consciously more of these days. It's it's, I'm trying to think, yes. Is this, am I being of service? So I hope this is of service to you. The listener. Let's create, let's try new things. Let's live our passions. I'm going to attack the big pile, the front, the front little edges of the pile craft my first email, inviting everybody to the podcast and, uh, cleaning up my Facebook profile. All right, peace out. I will report back. Hopefully that those two things are done on the next episode.
