Welcome!

Thank you for signing up to the newsletter.

Every Friday I send an email about creativity, focus, and risk.

In the meantime, I thought you would appreciate some links to a few of my favorite and most-popular articles:

* [The Note](https://shawnblanc.net/2015/06/the-note/) — I write every single day, and this is the story of why and how I tell myself tomorrow’s topic.

* [The Jolt](https://shawnblanc.net/2015/06/the-jolt/) — Knowledge alone is not enough to create lasting change. You need decisiveness, motivation, and action. Here’s why.

* [Whole Brain Creativity](https://shawnblanc.net/2015/08/whole-brain-creativity/) — doing our best creative work is not just for right-brained folks.

Also, I’ve got a few awesome products you may be interested in:

* **[Learn Ulysses:](https://thesweetsetup.com/ulysses/)** I’m a writer, and the single most important app in my “writing tool belt” so to speak, is Ulysses. I put together a pretty incredible resource to help you get the most out of this app as well. It’s perfect for helping you organize all your thoughts, ideas, notes, and writing.

* *[Delight is in the Details](https://shawnblanc.net/thedetails/)* — If you’re a freelancer, entrepreneur, designer, writer, or anyone else who cares about sweating the details, then this eBook and interview series is for you.

* **[The Focus Course:](https://thefocuscourse.com)** If you’re feeling overwhelmed with work and life, and need to get some clarity on things, I bet The Focus Course would change your life. It’s like a Couch to 5k program but for your whole life. Over 2,000 people have been through the Focus Course. It’s awesome, and I bet you’d love it!

Anyway, that’s all for now. I look forward to connecting more.

Talk to you soon!
