The "Long" version of my answer
Just decide what you want out of life. Pick a sub, sub stack., or custom you think will be a good fit.
Do NOT post tons of questions about “Which sub for X?”
I’ve found that if you ask “Which sub for X?” usually the first few replies contain gold. 80/20 applies here like in everything else.
Once you have the sub in hand, listen to it WHILE taking some step toward the goal…or AFTER if that’s better depending on the sub.
Pre SubClub, I had an idea I came up with lsat year or maybe year before for a SMS-based service to help people take on and integrate new habits in (hopefully) record time, based on my own theories about repetition and accountability.
I got a Twilio number, started diving in to their API for SMS messaging…tied that into a PHP backend…but as per my usual MO, I lost steam on it within a few days. Too many ideas, not enough focus.
Jump forward to earlier this year. I decided to give it an honest go again. By that time I’d made an educated guess that a mobile app would get a lot more users than a text-based service where people could forget the commands.
I stacked Ascended Mogul Q and Limitless Q on a 24/7 masked loop in the office here at the house. I kept it playing even when I left the office to sleep (mainly just forgot or was too lazy to pause playback.
Over the 6 days that followed, I went from ZERO (as in “How do I make an iPhone app?”) to having a working prototype sitting pretty in my iPhone.
My focus on that went a bit far, of course. I called out most of my scheduled time at my day job.
But I got that bitch built.
tl;dr Pick a sub. Use sub. Find out what the tiniest/easiest step is so you can just get started. Ask yourself “What can I do TODAY to move the needle on (X)?” then do that thing.
Once you do it, it becomes a LOT easier to keep going.
