In January,
many of us
buy things
to help us
achieve our version of success
during the rest of the year.
I bought,
for example,
a 12 month subscription
to a program
that easily creates
promo graphics
for folks
in the publishing industry.
It cost $146,
which is a great deal
IF it is used.
At first,
many writers use it.
They’re excited about it.
It is a new toy.
Three months later,
around this time of year,
some of those writers
have stopped using the program.
That program was a bargain
for the writer who used it.
It was a waste of resources
for the writer who didn’t use it.
I suspect
you have bought something similar
recently.
It could have been a gym
or stock photo
or Costco membership.
Or maybe it was
a 3D printer
or a peloton
or a discount program
or something else.
Are you getting full use
of it?
Are you STILL using it?
Can you think of
MORE ways to use it?
If you bought it,
use it.
Get the most value
out of every investment.
