<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/937246/open_sms">Send us a text</a>In this episode of Measure Twice, Cut Once, I explore the process of learning new skills and capabilities, both in quilting and in business. I share personal stories about taking on challenging projects—from creating a quilt from vintage blocks to building an online course business—and break down the four stages of growth: courage, commitment, capability, and confidence. This episode offers practical insights for anyone looking to expand their creative skills or transform their passion into a profession.Note: Some links below are affiliate links, which means that if you use them to purchase the product, I'll earn a small commission at no extra charge to you! Key Points<ul><li>My experience with the "Ava" quilt challenge and how it prepared me for bigger challenges</li><li><a href='https://amzn.to/4lrdjr9'>The Four C's Formula</a> by Dan Sullivan: Courage, Commitment, Capability, and Confidence</li><li>The importance of giving yourself permission to be a beginner and take time to learn</li><li>Why celebrating small gains and progress is essential for growth</li></ul>Resources Mentioned<ul><li><a href='https://amzn.to/4lrdjr9'>The Four C's Formula</a> by Dan Sullivan: <a href='https://link-to-booklet.com'>Link to booklet</a></li><li><a href='https://amzn.to/4lt8FJ9'>The Gap and the Gain</a> by Dan Sullivan and Dr. Benjamin Hardy</li></ul>SponsorThis episode is sponsored by Susan's <a href='https://stitchedbysusan.com/free-motion-quilting-masterclass'>Free Motion Quilting Masterclass</a>, an on-demand comprehensive course for mastering freehand quilting skills and design decisions.
