It's all over.
Everything is over.
Let me explain.
So if you watch the last episode,
I realized that daily one hour episodes does not work.
So then I cut it down to however long I needed
the episode to be is how long it was.
And then I realized that daily episodes
is not what I wanted to do because
I want higher quality episodes.
So then I decided to take a break.
And it was fine because I had seven episodes scheduled
ahead of time to be able to just not record for a few days.
And I was still posting daily episodes.
So it's been a few days, probably
been like three or four days since I recorded last episode.
And the exact day is November 2nd to Thursday.
I don't remember when I recorded last episode,
but it doesn't really matter because
in the past couple days,
I read a few books about podcasting.
And I realized that I need to just restart.
I just need to restart everything
because this podcast is very low quality
looks on professional.
The image, the profile pic, my website,
everything is unprofessional.
And then the actual audio is very bad
because I don't prepare and I just talk for an hour.
So then I realized I gotta just restart.
So what I'm doing is my plans right now
are to go to season two.
Right now, every episode has been on season one.
There's been 104 episodes in season one
and this is the last episode of season one.
And usually podcasts like mine don't go to season two,
but I feel like it's needed because
the trailer in season one is terrible.
It's my most downloaded video and it's terrible.
So it's probably pushing people away
from actually watching my episodes.
But I wanna keep it up because I want people
to be able to see where I came from.
I want people to see my journey.
So that's why I'm going to season two
so I can get a brand new trailer.
And then another thing is the new website.
I made a brand new website on the podcast.
So it's jamesridsonski.com if you wanna check it out.
I'm gonna actually take a lot of notes
and consolidate them all down to one episode.
So my plan's moving forward as weekly episodes,
just once a week, every Friday.
And I'm actually gonna edit the episodes.
They're gonna be higher quality.
I'm gonna prepare the whole week for the actual recording.
And I already have like 10 episode ideas.
So, but I don't know how long the episode is gonna be.
I'm just gonna have it as long as it needs to be
for what I'm saying.
But I want it to be a little longer than like,
I want it to be longer than like 20 minutes.
I want it to actually be a decent length episode.
But it's only gonna be weekly episodes.
And I want high quality.
That's what I'm focusing on right now.
And this episode actually is gonna be
the first actual edited episode.
So, me recording it, I have not really,
there's been a lot of kind of pauses that I've had.
Or I'm actually gonna edit it.
And I'm gonna, I have to figure out how to edit first.
And I have to figure out how to actually edit videos.
I have to figure out what to actually use.
All of this stuff is part of the journey.
You have to figure out how to do it and what to even use.
Like right now I record on OBS, OBS Studios.
I didn't even know what to record on in the first place.
I had to look around and then I found this.
I actually recorded one of my episodes on podcast.
But then I realized that I only have like 10 hours
of recording per month and that's not enough
for my purposes.
All of that said, where I'm moving forward,
daily or weekly episodes.
And I'm gonna revamp the descriptions,
the description of the shows.
And also I'm gonna maintain my three TikToks,
three daily TikToks every day.
So I'm sorry if I kind of seem a little
razzled right now.
It's because I didn't meditate before this episode,
but that's not the excuse.
To be honest, I was not very well prepared
for this episode obviously because I came in
without much recording.
But it's the last, all right,
I'm just gonna say the last thing.
The last lesson, one of the biggest lessons
that I learned over the past couple of days is,
actually before I say that,
I wanna tell you that I failed.
So I said that I don't watch YouTube
and I didn't until like a week ago
when this one video popped, like caught my attention
while I was posting my YouTube videos on my phone.
So one video caught my attention and then I watched it
and I applied what I learned in that video.
And it basically revolutionized all of these changes
that I'm making right now.
So naturally I really liked that.
So then I kind of correlated checking the YouTube feed
with making drastic changes
and learning about drastic changes that need to be done.
The first time it happened, good, I got drastic changes.
I'd revamped my daily routine.
And then the second time, nothing really happened.
I just learned, I just saw some garbage videos,
like nothing really, really good.
Yet I was still opening YouTube and checking the app.
I was still doing it every day
until I got to one YouTube video.
It was a Hamza video where he said,
like he talked to seven millionaires
and got secrets from them.
So I watched that whole video through.
All of the secrets, I didn't really,
like they weren't really very beneficial to me
because I already knew them,
but the last thing that he said,
he was basically saying that,
and here's the lesson that I learned
that actually drastically changed everything for me.
He said that you're a entrepreneur
if you don't have any way to get paid.
So pretty much I'm kind of paraphrasing what he said.
Essentially you are still a entrepreneur
if there's no way for you to get paid.
So if I wanted to pay you right now,
if I wanted to pay you money and I couldn't
because you didn't have any offer up
or you didn't have like a payment processor or anything,
then you're still a entrepreneur.
And he said most people are in that stage
where they don't even have anything up.
And just the way he said it really clicked.
And then he said that you're not actually a entrepreneur
until you get your first payment up.
And then he said, get it up right now.
Like don't say, don't cope and say,
oh, I don't, like I don't, my offer's not good enough
or oh, this or that, don't give all those excuses.
Basically put it up and then that's where you're,
that's when you're actually an entrepreneur.
And once you put it up, then you can actually go through
and figure out, oh, do I need more traffic?
Oh, do I need to increase the value of the, of my offer?
All of these things,
that's when you actually do the entrepreneurship.
That's when you actually do the strategies
and basically figure out what's wrong
and what you need to improve upon.
So this whole time I was a launch entrepreneur.
And then right after that video, I realized like,
oh, I actually have to do this.
So right away after that video,
I signed up for a bank account.
I used a Mercury.
I didn't know if that was the best bank account to use.
I didn't, I did care, but I realized that I was just coping
trying to find the best one.
So I just went with Mercury
because it said it was the best for startups.
So I did that.
And then I signed up for a Stripe payment processor.
And I haven't actually gotten a live thing out yet,
but I plan on doing that soon.
I plan on offering up a coaching service.
And actually, I actually don't have enough money
to buy ClickFunnels for one month right now in my account,
in my actual bank account.
So, but I am in the works of selling my Xbox
and my old VR and all my controllers.
So I'm trying to sell that for $200.
So once I get that, then I'll be able to buy
a month of ClickFunnels.
And then I'm gonna actually make my coaching service.
But I'm gonna, I might try and figure out some other
like cheaper way to do it.
Maybe some way free way to set it up,
but that's it, that's the last lesson
of this entire season.
This is the shortest episode that I've made
in probably like 100 days.
But that's it for the episode.
So look out for season two.
The season two trailer is gonna be posted on Thursday.
And then on Friday is the first episode's gonna go live.
Not, okay, so right now is November 2nd,
which is Thursday.
And so on November 9th, that's when the trailer
is gonna be posted.
And then November 10th is when the first episode
is gonna go live.
So look out for that and have a good day.
