The most important lesson from the relaunch of High Impact Writing


Thanks to everyone who supported (and survived) the launch earlier in the week.

I can’t quite believe how things have been going this year. It’s been a constant pinch-yourself moment and I’m grateful to share the journey with you.

Today I wanna share an important business lesson from the weekend.

But first, if you didn’t see on Twitter, here’re the results:

When I woke up on Tuesday morning I was speechless. I thought the first 6 figure launch was a fluke. But to now say that High Impact Writing has grossed over $320,000 in 3 months?

Unbelievable.

Life-changing.

And just a little overwhelming!

I feel blessed to have you as my audience and I’m fully committed to reciprocating with more, and better content, down the line.

It was also my 2 year anniversary since quitting Dentistry so a double win.

But anyway…

Let’s talk about this lesson.

One of the best parts about big wins is the momentum after.

Lots of opportunities roll in. Social media engagement skyrockets. Podcasts. Spaces. Etc.

It’s all very exciting - and the ‘smart’ advice would be to take advantage of the speed.

But here’s the truth:

Success is not a success if you can’t stop to enjoy it.

You might tell yourself you’ll take the break in a few months time. This is BS. You’ll never appreciate a win as much as the present moment. Jump right back on the treadmill and you’ll be running for the rest of your life.

So work hard. Especially if you’ve got a vision - work even bloody harder.

But schedule time to pause and reflect. It’s all too easy to keep pushing for a better tomorrow - but the real skill is being able to enjoy today.

To your freedom,

Kieran

P.S.

On that note, I’ve just landed in Greece for 2 weeks of island hopping with my girlfriend. I’ll still mess around on Twitter - but for the most part, the plan is to drink rum, read books, and explore ruins (I love me some ancient history).

I’ll be back at the end of September with a special email series breaking down the lessons from the launch. Plus a few free video courses - probably on the email and salespage copywriting. Let me know if there’s anything you’d like to see.

Also, if anyone has experience with Athens, Mykonos, Naxos, or Santorini - tell me where to check out! Haven’t had any time to plan because of the launch.

Ta.

Let me bribe you with free stuff...

Over the past few years, I've read hundreds of books.

Most of them were a waste of time. Some were absolute gems. And if you refer just one friend to Digital Freedom using the link below, I'll send you the ONLY 33 books you need to read to build an incredible creator business.

It’s also the first time I’ve seen the Tesla Truck. “What a strange lump of metal, ”I thought to myself, as I strolled along South Beach. It looks like it could fit perfectly in the original (and fantastic) classic film, Judge Dredd. Love or hate it, one truth was undeniable: I could not forget it. Of the thousands of expensive cars I saw...

Before we dive in: Grow on Substack by 500+ subscribers per month My friend Taylin John Simmonds has been crushing it on Substack recently.

Dan Koe was one of the first people who helped me succeed online. I found him on Twitter 10 months into my writing journey. I joined one of his cohorts a few months later. Soon after, I had my first viral post following his advice, and things have never been the same. So it feels crazy to say that on June 5th, I will be headlining on the same stage as Dan, live in Canada. The event is called The Future Proof Creator Summit. There is a great range of speakers focused on helping you build your...
