The Surprising Joy of Writing Online

I'll be upfront with you. Relaunching Optimize Your Day has been on my mind for a while, but I've hesitated. Why? Nerves. 😬 The thought of sharing ideas with over 6,000 of you is quite something, especially for an introvert like me. Distance doesn't make it any less personal – email feels close to the heart.

In my quest to craft the perfect newsletter, I've delved into everything from writing tips to choosing the best platforms and designing logos. But let's call it what it was – procrastination in disguise. One piece of advice I came across said, “Emojis and professionalism don't mix in newsletters.” So, just yesterday, I found myself pondering over every emoji I had used.

Then, this morning changed everything. I woke up to your amazing responses from yesterday's email. A huge thank you to everyone who engaged with the poll and dropped a hello! So here's my decision: #%!# it. I'm all in for taking action, not stalling, and yes, embracing emojis without any second thoughts. 🤣

That being said, I genuinely want Optimize Your Day to resonate with your daily life. So, I have a small favor to ask. Could you spare a moment to answer this quick poll? Your responses will help me tailor our content to better suit the needs and interests of our incredible community.
