Go to the Writers. http://www.pixelatedimage.com/blog... Anne Lamott, in particular, has helped me as both a writer and a photographer. Probably because she’s more neurotic and self-deprecating than I am, and I take comfort in that. In her book Bird by Bird she talks about the first steps in writing, among them this: Write sh*tty first drafts. [...]

The War of Art – Visual Book Summary Part I and II | Sunni Brown http://sunnibrown.com/2010... Steven Pressfield’s The War of Art left an indelible impression on me (and many others I’m sure), so I decided to memorialize some of the lessons in a visual format.

Ian Betteridge on Comments http://www.technovia.co.uk/2010... “When I link, though, I try to send my readers away. I share every bit of my traffic that I can. Do I tend to link more frequently to pieces with which I agree, or which I think are correct? Of course, because those are the ones I tend to consider most worth my readers’ time. But it’s certainly [...]

Brian Ford on Comments http://brianericford.tumblr.com/post... When we bought our house, we looked out into the massive backyard and we were amazed by the lush garden brimming with flowers and vegetables and fruit trees. That vision sucked us into a fantasy world of possibility: “Oh, what we could do with that! Vegetables from our garden for dinner! [...]

Amplifying the lizard brain http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_b... Not sure why you would want to reinforce the noise in your head that tells you not to speak up, stand out and do work that matters, but if you do, a surefire way to do it is to focus your attention on every piece of negative feedback in your environment.

SEO Mindset Reminder #6 http://www.leslierohde.com/2010... Secondly, the web is made of pages and links. There is nothing else, so whatever your study leads you to get busy doing, if it doesn’t result in creating more or better pages or more or better links, then it really has not much to do with SEO. (via Instapaper) Even though he [...]

Fear of shipping http://bit.ly/aQjGSF Every time you raise your hand, send an email, launch a product or make a suggestion, you’re exposing yourself to criticism. Not just criticism, but the negative consequences that come with wasting money, annoying someone in power or making a fool of yourself. It’s no wonder we’re afraid to ship. (via Instapaper) Great [...]

The Two Magic Powers | Frank Kern Internet Marketing http://frankkern.com/?p=17 Occasionally, the unthinkable occurs. I run out of the trash-fiction that I like to read – and as a last resort, I pick up “emergency reading material” like Oprah Magazine. (My wife gets it. Not me! I swear!

Guest Post - Daniel Watrous I’m the technology guy in my house (maybe not surprising). In fact, there aren’t many technology problems that I can’t solve. It was no big surprise then when my wife asked me how to do something in a certain program on her computer. When I said “let me come have a [...]

Go to the Writers. http://www.pixelatedimage.com/blog... Interestingly most creative disciplines have a similar process. There’s a time and place at the beginning of creation, to be messy and to create really horrific stuff. Painters sketch. Musicians write lousy first drafts on napkins, their angst and heartbreak leaving puddles of tears on the bar. And we photographers, no [...]

Make a web page for each store location http://www.mattcutts.com/blog... Here’s a concrete example.

You know how much I love Steven Pressfields work. I love the concept of the second act.

I spent the past week in New York meeting with early investors and doing interviews about taking our company public.
