What to do when your dreams take a different form to what you expected.

Published: Sun, 10/15/23

Hello , we might not be at the end of 2023 just yet, but now is a good time to reflect on what went well in 2023 and what you can set 2024 up for.

For me, 2023 held a lot of turmoil, in my personal life and career. Completing Battle Panda 2, helped me hold it together this year.

These are not the droids you are looking for

One of the lessons I learnt this year, which I hope can help you, was doing my best with it and not stressing about the results.

You may go searching for one thing, yet find another thing.

In previous campaigns I had focused too much on the results and outcomes to determine how I felt.

I have learnt recently, or more accurately, I have come to accept that the results will be what they will be.

My job is to put my focus and energy on the input, i.e. the things that I can control.

I can't control how many backers I get, but I can control how well I prepare the campaign page
I can't control if anyone chooses to back the project, but I can control my effort to make it a compelling proposition

Are there areas in your life that you could decoupling the output from the input?

Don't worry about the output or other people's decisions, just focus on your input.

Digitopia The Graphic Novel or Battle Panda 3

Thanks to all of you who have already filled in the form from the last email on what you'd like to see as my next Kickstarter book

let me know what you'd like to see as my next Kickstarter

What's the next project you'd like to see from me?

Keep trucking!

Keep doing your best and keep smiling - what you're stiving for will find its way to you.

It may not come in the timeframe you may want it
It may not take the shape and form that you wanted

But a result will come your way.

We only get to go round once - enjoy the ride!
