How to launch an idea within 48hrs

Hello friends,

Today I am writing from a Parisian café filled with an absolute buzz. People commuting to work, exercising and remotely working. Everyone is after one thing - their caffeine fix. Who can’t get enough of it? I am unashamedly addicted to my brew (Blondie Café)

Let’s dive in.

What I’m reading:

This one was a suggestion from a podcast (see below) between one of my favorite authors, Seth Godin and renowned podcaster, Tim Ferris. The Carbon Almanac dispels and directs all the truths and myths regarding global warming and climate change. Truly is blowing my mind at how much the media has skewed the truth.

What I’m listening to:

Seth Godin and Tim Ferris’ latest episode on The Pursuit of Meaning, The Life-Changing Power of Choosing Your Attitude, Overcoming Rejection, Life Lessons from Zig Ziglar, and Committing to Making Positive Change.

3X Actionable Insights on Biz, Health & Life:

1) Biz: The formula for launching an idea within 48 hours.

Take action and listen to your intuition and then iterate. Do not iterate 10 times before launching. Most of us (Including me if I do not catch myself soon enough) think about an idea, dwell on that thought for weeks, try and improve it in our minds and then a couple months down the road, it’s still on our to-do list. WTF. Is this you?

Instead, try this:

Create a home for your ideas on Notes, Google Drive, your journal (whatever is the easiest to access). I use Reminders with Siri and then transport to Notes at the end of my day (I add this task into the calendar so I don’t conveniently forget about it)

Whatever really get’s you excited, create it. 

It doesn’t have to initially sound like a profitable business idea, it just needs to make sense to you. Make sure your first draft is something that you would want to spend time with (Acid test of quality) and then share it. Ask for feedback from users and then iterate.

Do not strive for perfection. Rather: Ideate, Create, Launch, Iterate, Repeat.

2) Health: Genetic testing

You may not know this about me - I am certified in functional genomics and due to this, I know we are all genetically unique. Sucks, as gluten is not my friend and may not be yours either.

Do yourself a favour and get your genetic test. If privacy is a concern for you then you are in luck as I for sure am not handing over my biological data to people I do not know. One of the only companies in the world that believes in privacy (they will not share your data) and believes in working with your genome naturally through diet, exercise and mindset. Check The DNA Company out here ( I even managed to get you a small discount). Also watch the founder explain it so simply on Impact Theory

3) Personal Growth: Morning Routine

A morning routine cannot be emphasized more. Trust me, I know I sound like a broken record but that is because without my morning routine, my day always seems to run on default and life becomes more reaction based instead of creation based.

This is my method that could work for you too:

• Wake up the same time every morning (6am)

• Have an internal shower (drink 750ml - 1000ml of filtered water)

• Sit on my HigherDose infrared Go mat in the sun and doing breath-work with the help of Othership app, followed by a quiet meditation.

• Write anything for 5 - 10 minutes (include your intention for the day)

• Move or exercise in some shape or form.

• Eat a nutrient rich, unprocessed, high-protein breakfast without your phone (Only turn your phone on after your morning routine)

Simple and very effective. A pretty much free.

Something interesting I learnt:

Only 9% of all plastics (including the ones we throw in the recycling bins) get recycled. (Source: The Carbon Almanac). It is suggested in the book that we have a greater impact in helping slow global warming by voting for a president/political party that believes in protecting our planet. This is probably the only politically motivated statement that has ever made me interested in voting.

App or program I’m loving to boost productivity:

Opus Clip is a generative AI video tool that repurposes long talking videos into short shareable videos with captions and will score it based on it potential virality. Just upload and let it run it’s magic.

As I mention every week, the above only counts if you start actioning it otherwise you just wasted 5 minutes of your life. I am here for your exponential growth and I know the only way to access that is through taking that next step.

Here’a to your supercharged week 🚀
