A buddy of mine decided to start a YouTube channel a couple of years ago.

No fancy courses. No pricey mentors. He didn’t even bother with tutorials on content or editing. His philosophy? Learn by doing and watching what works for the competition.

Instead of mindlessly consuming content, he studied it. He'd watch other creators, not for entertainment, but to decode their strategies: how they structured their videos, what kept the audience hooked, and why certain thumbnails popped.

Then he practiced. Relentlessly. Video after video, tweak after tweak. He stayed consistent even when his first uploads barely scratched double-digit views.

Fast forward two years: He’s sitting at 1M+ subscribers.

Here’s the thing. He didn’t overthink or drown himself in theory. He acted, learned, and adjusted as he went.

Courses can teach you frameworks, sure. But action? Action teaches you what actually works.

So, how does this apply to your business? Stop waiting for “the right time” or “the perfect plan.” Start. Learn. Adjust. Repeat.

Consistency beats perfection every single time.

Charging clients a premium fee only because coaches say so.

They suggest determining your happy price and provide calculators to do so by factoring in your expenses.

The problem is, this often doesn't match the value brought, especially by new creative freelancers. It can hurt your business in the long run; you won't have any referrals due to poor quality work.

What you can do is base your fee on your work's impact on the client's revenue.

Let's say you're a funnel designer for a course creator. The course is $97 with a target of 100 sales = $9,700.

It's better to charge $1,400, around 15% of the target revenue.

This way, you're motivated to help your client increase revenue.

Charge based on value, not based on your lifestyle.

Talked to 5 individuals since Monday who need organization in their work life or in their personal lives.

They are happy and grateful for the insights I've shared.

Some got the process of how to capture information into their second brain system, and most got the process of how to onboard their client.

Now, who wants an EDITABLE COPY of this onboarding workflow?

Comment "Editable" below and I'll message you to get it.

Limited only to 24 hours.

Pag natuto ka na ng maraming bagay, isa sa mga pedeng gawin ay mag bigay ng advice tungkol sa mga alam mo na.

Sa mga bagay na may expertise ka, experience, and knowledge.

Shortcut ito para sa mga nag book ng calls sakin to find a solution to what they need.

Isa ito sa mga part ng work ko that I love, nasa top kasi ng strengths ko ah individualization, so each client meron akong personal touch kung paano ko sila ihandle, turuan, at iguide.

Minsan hindi technical yung usapan nagiging coaching narin siya, this week ang reply sakin nung isa kong kausap. "Wow, that's the best advice I got so far."

Tuwang tuwa naman ako nung narinig ko yun, kasi it's proof that I made an impact.

Sharing my process in the photo below.

1. Inquiry - Pag may nag tanong, ni-check ko muna if I can be of help with the person. If yes, that I invite to a call.
2. Call - We conduct either in your platform or in my zoom, then mag record tayo for reference and documentation.
3. Invoice - this is an admin task na naautomate ko na, isang click na lang mag sesend na ng invoice to the client's email. Based on how much time kami nagusap, i-invoice ko siya accordingly. Sa Notion yung tracking nito.
4. Payment - getting paid, makareceive ako ng notification, then makareceive rin ng payment confirmation si client.
5. Feedback - Asking for feedback and referral para I can improve my services and to know whether meron pa akong pede matulungan na kakilala ni current client.

I started this with 500/hr, now I'm at 3000/hr rate.

Pag mapataas natin yung value na nabibigay natin, makakapagcharge tayo ng masmataas.

so far I can consult for
- Notion Builds
- System Building
- Productivity
- Flowcharting / Process Doc
- Make Automation and Integration

Taking good notes means organizing the data based on how you understand it.

Kulang yung ni-copy paste mo lang from a course.

Here are THREE practices para maging effective note-taker ka.

1. Add your personal insights
Relate mo sa kung among alam mo na, example sa Make course na inaaral ko, meron error handling na function called "Commit".

The way I understand it is similar to the "Exit" function sa ibang programming language na alam ko.

Since I'm familiar with the Exit function, each time na need ko gamitin yung I can easily relate it to the "Commit".

Forgive me with the jargons, pero I hope you get the point.

2. Add keywords and naming conventions to your Note titles
Nakakaincrease ng value ng notes mo kasi mas madaling magsearch.

Example 1, instead of "Automation Course Notes" lang yung in lagay ko sa title, "Courses - Automation | Make | Business"

Example 2, kunwari magsave ka note for your bank details, instead of "Unionbank details", I use
"Bank Details | Unionbank | UBP | Bank"

This way mas madali siya masearch, pag nag search ako ng "UBP" lalabas parin note yung.

3. Digitalize your notes
Sanay ka sa pen and paper? okay lang yun.

Utilize mo parin yung digital tools we have now. You can take a photo of your notes, tapos upload mo na lang yung photo.

This way you can reap these benefits.
• Searchability - hirap mag hanap sa notebooks ng specific notes, lalo na pag madami, pag digital notes
• Organization - Madali mag drag and drop, mag tag, or add into folders.
• Includes Media (Photos/Links) - Visually appealing kasi pede ka mag add ng photos
• Collaboration - mas madali mag search kasi invite mo lang or send link.
• Accessibility - Kahit saan ka you can access your notes through your phone.

If you want to start taking good notes, you need a good system tulad nitong Notes Manager template.

naalala mo ba dati pag bakasyon at hindi kailangan mag alarm clock?

namiss ko yun..

yung panahon na ang daming oras

bored ka kasi wala kang magawa..

ngayon as a parent with a toddler

need na maging wise sa pag spend ng time

kasi malaking time yung need para ibalance yung parenting, husbanding, work, rest, worship, socials, self-dev...

basta diba, ang dami need gawin

pero since may anak na ako, clingy pa, I need to spend time with him.

kayo ko ito shinishare kasi I found the importance of time blocking.

it's one of the many productivity strategies I studied

para madami parin akong magawa for less of the time.

optimize yung schedule ganun.

Now, I'm able to spend time with my toddler pero nakakawork parin ako.

hindi lang busy ah, may matinong output parin.

I use Notion + Notion calendar combo to execute itong time blocking.

if you want to know how, gumawa ako ng video on how I use Notion for timeblock, check inside the group Work Better Club for Notion Users, Freelancers, and Product Sellers.

The power of learning is in the quality of content you consume and in the discipline to execute.

It's uncomfortable, pero G lang tayo.

first-year college, English 101. Meron kaming recitation need tumayo sa harap at magsalita.

inisip ko magabsent na lang para hindi mag recite pero hindi talaga makakatakas kasi magrerecite parin pag pumasok na.

grabe yung kaba ko nun

pawis kahit naka aircon

bilis ng tibok ng puso

tapos feeling na-tatae ka pa.

Nung nakatayo na ako sa harap, first 2 sentences lang nasabi ko, tapos na-blanko na.

Yan naaalala ko kaya ko kinakabahan magsalita sa madaming tao.

This changed when I found something that I could not help but share.

Yun ay ang paggamit ng Notion.

Kahit takot, G parin kasi it's something worth sharing.

Ito yung mga nagawa ko na before, malalayo yung gabi kasi uncomfortable talaga ako.

if burn out ka na or wala ka ng magawang work.

natry mo na ba magshower? maligo ganun?

that's what I did the other day.

nagextra shower ako nung hapon.

hindi dahil mainit..

hindi dahil napawisan ako..

pero dahil grabe, I'm stuck walang akong magawang work kahit umiinom na ako ng coffee.

Kulang na ng brain cells or limit na yung cognitive load ko.

commercial: cognitive meaning as per ChatGPT

here's what showering does.

- it clears or mind and reduce mental clutter. pati pala utak nalilinis pag nagshshower.
- nakakarelax ng katawan pag warm water yung gamit
- gives your shower thoughts. yung bigla kang may creative ideas habang naliligo.

bakit may shower thoughts, kasi routine na yung paliligo natin eh.

hindi natin iniisip na step 1, kunin yung sabon, step 2, ikuskos sa katawan. wala walang ganung processing. routine na, habit na.

so our brain has the capacity to think about other things, like our work. kaya tayo may shower thoughts.

so the other day I was able to continue work after ko mag shower.

so kung akala ko sayang lang sa oras maligo, think again.
