Self-Command and Self-Doubt, both available the past few years on Gumroad, are now also available through Amazon Audible. They've been combined together as a new bundle titled Get Yourself to Do Things. I'm excited to have this material now available to more people in another platform option they (or you) may find more convenient.

I've always been happy with using Gumroad, too. This material will remain available on their original pages for people who like to download the files separate from any specific player.

If this is the first you're hearing about these audiobooks, in the few years since I self-published them they've been used by around 4,000 people to stay on task or learn new skills, both usually related to side projects or hobbies.

If you've found these methods and materials useful or know friends who find Audible convenient, it'd mean a lot to me if you'd spread the word. I set up a simple redirect to the store page to make sharing easier: GetYourselfToDoThings.com

If you have an Audible credit coming up or are willing to help support my work, leaving an honest review there would be the most helpful.

Getting reviews on any new platform can be very challenging. This is even more difficult in this case, since many people in my direct or secondary reach who would be interested may have already obtained these through Gumroad as their first platform.

The original version also included Volunteering or Friends and Family Sharing options, which unfortunately are not part of the bundle through Amazon. I have no regrets about either strategy, those are simply incompatible with the way that other store works. The price is a lower to account for that, including that the ebook and audiobook are now sold separately, so each at a little less than than half the original price.

If you're able to help consider leaving a review at GetYourselfToDoThings.com Each review makes a big difference in 2 important ways:

Potential listeners often seek reviews that resonate with their feelings, challenges, and thinking style. Your review can be the one that helps someone else give this a try, which could really help them get back on a good track.
Most online platforms, like Steam, have a threshold of reviews a product needs to receive before it becomes more visible. Amazon doesn't share this information to avoid people gaming it, but whether it's 3, 10, 25, or more, there may be thresholds that a product needs to meet in review numbers before it's displayed as a recommendation for people browsing related books, where it shows up in search, perhaps even before other submitted ratings display.

Thank you for hearing me out, and your ongoing support. It means a lot! I hope your 2023 is going well.

Best,

Chris

P.S. Self-Calm, my adaptation of the old Stoic text Meditations from Marcus Aurelius, isn't bundled with this version since Amazon calculates cost based on length. I didn't feel right doubling the price with 7 hours of material based on public domain philosophy. That full audio is now free as a YouTube upload. The ability to manually set price is one of the advantages of Gumroad - which again, I'm still very happily using, this is simply about supporting another option since I know some people have platform preferences.

New video course on how to finish projects - fits well with Self-Command, good for game devs, new content creators or other side projects
