#100 Andrew Roy: 21 Lessons I Wish I Knew When I Started Serves You Right
from Serves You Right · host Andrew Roy
Most people who start a podcast quit before episode 10.I didn't. I hit 100 because I am a stubborn MOFO. And the version of me who pressed record on episode one has almost nothing in common with the the me that is filming this.Before I ever launched the show, I spent six months thinking about it. Months before I even mentioned it to my wife. The story running in my head is the same one most people are running about their own thing right now: Who am I to do this? Will I stick with it? What will people think? Then one day I stopped planning, bought a mic, and shut those questions up by answering them with action.In this episode I open up the 21 lessons I wish that someone had handed me on day one… including the night I sat across from a brilliant guest and realized 40 minutes in that I had never hit record. I also give away the single boring habit that lets me tell, week by week, exactly which content is actually working and which is vanity noise.If you've been "planning" something for the last six months, skip this episode and you'll be planning the same thing six months from now.Expect to Learn:The six months I wasted before episode one and the exact mental loop that kept me stuckWhy your time math is wrong, and the five hours hiding in your schedule that you keep giving awayThe single number I started tracking on day one that now determines who agrees to come on the showLinks:Serves You Right Podcast (for obvious reasons)AirtableCalendlyService starts now.Follow the show: Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTubeI talk to people in and around the service industry space.
