FROM MY WORLD

My $9.95 Breakthrough

What’s the stupidest mistake you’ve made in your online business journey?

Mine? Thinking I could blog my way to success. 

For a whole year, I poured my soul into writing post after post, building a rickety WordPress site, and obsessing over keywords. I was like the online version of a struggling musician—only my audience didn’t even clap.

The result? A thousand subscribers who couldn’t care less about what I was selling. 

My emails? They went unopened, unclicked, and unsubscribed faster than you could say “thanks, but no thanks.”

Something had to give. And that something was me. 

I scrapped everything—trashed the blog, shut down the social media grind, and went all-in on a crazy idea: What if I could find subscribers who were already buyers?

That’s when I discovered email drops.

Instead of chasing strangers on the internet, I started tapping into lists where people were already trained to open, click, and buy. And you know what? It worked.

Fast-forward to today, and I’ve built a six-figure business around this one strategy. Turns out, building a responsive list isn’t about working harder—it’s about targeting smarter.

Here’s the kicker: This all started with a simple $9.95 product and a big “aha” moment. The best customer isn’t someone you have to convince—it’s someone who’s already in the buying mood.

So, here’s my question for you: What’s your stupid mistake? And what’s the bold move you’ll make to fix it?

Dig Deeper into Your Triggers to Set Yourself Free

The smallest things can sometimes hit the hardest.

A refund request from a customer, losing a race years ago, or a passing comment—tiny moments that sink their teeth into your brain and won’t let go. And before you know it, you’re spiraling, replaying the scenario like it’s the most important thing in the world.

Why? Because it’s not about what happened today. 

It’s about the emotional weight you’ve been carrying for years—baggage you might not even realize is there.

Here’s a story: For years, losing in any competitive setting used to bother me for days. 

A single loss would haunt me, no matter how much success I had. It wasn’t until I unpacked that feeling—layer by layer—that I figured out the real trigger: a go-kart race I lost as a kid. 

That moment planted a belief that losing meant I wasn’t good enough.

Or take this: A client requesting a refund used to ruin my day. At first, I thought it was about the money. But when I looked deeper, I realized it was tied to an old fear of disappointing people—a belief drilled into me as a child. 

If someone trusted me and I didn’t deliver? That felt like failure on a deeply personal level.

Here’s the thing: You can’t move forward if you’re dragging the past along for the ride. 

The good news? You can free yourself.

Here’s how I do it:

1. Pause and notice your reaction. Anger, anxiety, frustration—whatever it is, sit with it.

2. Ask why. Dig beyond the surface. Keep peeling back the layers until you hit the real issue.

3. Acknowledge and release. Once you know what’s really bothering you, it’s easier to let go.

Letting go is a skill, and it’s hard work. But the payoff is worth it—because once you drop the baggage, life feels lighter, and those triggers lose their power.

So, what’s been triggering you lately? And how much better would life feel if you let it go?
