And on the 7th day he rested. And this 7th day marks the end of an era. On December 18th I announced my intention to close my account on #birdchan and I now have.

There will be people who will continue to fight, thinking there will be positive change, or those who have built their livelihood there. I understand. As they say, do you, boo. I’m on a journey to better #SelfCare and just as I walked away from the #NotABook place 6 years ago, it’s for the best. I’m ok with that. #OneDayIllFlyAway

Just before all the chaos started in the last couple of weeks, I had an idea for something that I wanted to share with you. You'll remember I said a couple of weeks ago that I had no plans to write a book in 2023, well here's the alternative idea.

I found this little program called Obsidian. It's completely free. It's actually a Markdown editor that has some cool functionality. Markdown is a coding language, like HTML (hyper-text markup language), that allows a person to create a simple, static website.

The neat thing about Obsidian is that it creates a spider web map of the individual notes or pieces of text that get created. It's like a mind-map on steroids.

Using Obsidian I can write out all the different topics that I talk about, connect them to each other in a way that makes sense, and then display the whole thing in a static website. That's my plan. Instead of a book, I'm going to create a free website full of the concepts that I talk about.

Why?

My content is free. When I offer private coaching or paid group programs or even the Conscious Clarity Community, it's not because I'm trying to get you to pay me for some secret sauce that I'm hiding. My goal with those things is to help you apply the concepts that I offer to your own life. It's to give you the opportunity to have me focus directly on your specific situation and the thoughts that are in your head.

Tell me what you're thinking and I'll help you shift the thinking to something that allows you to see things more clearly. I can help get you out of your head and get you unstuck.

You can do that for free by reading what I write, sitting down, and figuring it out for yourself or I can help you. The choice is yours. Either way, the content itself is free. You're only paying for my support. The ideas that I offer in those paid formats aren't new ideas. They are the same things that I talk about continuously. The difference for you is that I'm applying them to you directly. I'm showing you how it works in your own life.

So, that's my project for 2023 around all the other things.

I'll be publishing the individual ideas as I write them. I'm considering offering them in paid-for PDF file downloads as well. The free static website would be exactly that, free and static, without the ability to copy or print. The PDF files would allow you to buy, download, and print specific topics and concepts that are of interest to you.

Not only will it be written like a de-constructed and mind-mapped book, but it will also include questions and exercises to help you get your head around it for yourself.

If that sounds neat to you, watch for more in 2023!!

Love to all.
