purpose

(For every page's details, please scroll down.)

I am Kingston, and this is my project page.

This site is to document my journey through projects to help individuals and small business owners with a couple things that could make a difference.

I do this via mini projects. I also write, and I recently released my eBook ( Get To Know Your Backyard Opportunity), based on the lessons from my 21-Day project here in Austin, TX.

This book is aimed at highlighting the initiative we can all take to gather valuable skills in writing, communication, and interacting with people through an interview project in our local communities. The benefits could be life-changing.

Update Note: In the meantime, you can also pick up a free copy of my released mini-guide: Start With A Story: A Mini Guide On Opening Your Book With A Tale.

And also check out my latest startup in NYC, Kilimanjaro.

Learning For Skill Sake

I am currently working on a challenge that was presented by one of my favorite online apps, Gumroad

It's called the Small Product Lab: A challenge to build a small product, share it online, and publish it to a paying audience in 10 days!

Though I'm working on the launch of my book, I will take out about a week or so to get this done. I like challenges like this.

They get you fired up a bit, and it also involves other people, which makes it also fun, and you get to learn from a lot of other people working on different products, too.

Speaking of that, I just saw an article by Nathan Kontny Of Highrise that I want to share. Here it is below.

Nothing is a waste of time if done to learn a new skill. If you read any of the books on learning, like Talent Code, the trick is to practice deliberately and in small feedback loops that don’t kill you. Do you know much about paid ads and conversion optimization? Then that’s a great way to learn about them. Just time box it. Don’t spend many resources on this step

---Nathan Kontny, CEO Highrise, A Contact Management Software Company.

Thanks a lot, guys, and I will share a few of the updates here as we go along. Peace.

You will get nothing useless from me. Be assured.
