TOPIC
Week 4: Update on playbook and health

Hi friend,

So today marks the 4th week of building this playbook

Bad news: it’s not done yet, I’m about 60-65% there.

Good news: I’m still committed to releasing the guide, just sometime in the next week or 2.

As for why there’s a delay, a lot has been happening in my personal life regarding my health and work.

So, I took the time to ramble in a 5 minute video.

Please give it a listen here.

TLDR: I explain why the guide is being delayed by 1 - 2 weeks, the idea of expanding the newsletter into product-related topics, and introducing short videos.

What I worked on this week

Other than that, here’s the full table of contents for the playbook:

That last section is going to be relatively small compared to the other sections.

It’ll probably just be a template link. The goal is to close off the playbook by providing an easy-to-follow checklist.

A problem I had back when I was job searching was wondering if I was doing enough.

Some days, I’d feel like I didn’t apply enough.

So, I would spend another 1 or 2 hours just sending applications.

But repeating this over days and days eventually led to burnout.

By providing a checklist, you can track your progress. It’s basically something that tells you

If I can at least get these checked off, my day will be productive enough.

Format-wise, I’m 90% set on making this using notion. 10% on Canva.

Upcoming release date

As mentioned in the video above, I don’t have a hard date as I’d rather not rush things.

But realistically, early access will release next week.

After testing is done, the full guide will come out the week after.

Regardless, I don’t want to keep dragging on this series as our main topic.

Next Tuesday, we’re diving back to our regular series.

Any other playbook update will have a small, separate section.

That’s all for today. If you enjoyed this post, share it with a friend!

If they subscribe, I’ll send you a coffee chat guide!

See you next Tuesday 🤝
