Daily DRVN #10

🐢 Speed bumps, detours, and roadblock. Still, gonna get there.

Hey, DRVRs. Have you ever noticed that sometimes, being driven just isn’t enough? You can put the pedal to the metal and just find yourself burning out (in more ways than one).

Today you get a candid take on what’s going on under the hood of DRVN Culture. With 10 issues and nearly as many articles under my belt, you may be just now getting to know me. Hopefully, my passion for the automotive lifestyle shines through. What you don’t see is that my standard for quality is very high, and my bandwidth to execute is currently, very low. A conundrum, for sure.

DRVN Culture is my outlet to fully indulge in a world that I love, with the very real possibility of turning it into a genuine revenue stream. But lately, life has been throwing me detours… Flu stricken dogs and 2 cat surgeries. A herniated disk and poor sleep. All while trying to land some MUCH needed work, with absolutely ZERO luck. So rather than fighting the traffic, from now on I am gonna go with the flow.

Whether you’re building a car or a business (I’m doing both) there are bound to be times in which every nut is cross-thread, and every opportunity is an oil slick. This is one of those times. I’m determined to turn this publication into the high-performance machine I envision. But for the coming months, I am going to do things a little differently around here. Read on for the full details.

Daily DRVN goes weekly

I have always believed that quality is far more important than quantity. When I began this newsletter I set out to publish an issue every day of the week. I didn’t beat myself up if I didn’t meet that goal. But as my time became more strained, not only was I moving further away from that mark, but the quality of the posts wasn’t meeting my standards either. I was curating an entire issue in a single day as if I was going to do the same thing tomorrow. It’s not that they were getting worse. They just weren’t getting better.

With this being said, starting today the Daily DRVN newsletter will become a weekly publication, going out every Saturday morning. The name won’t change. Even a daily driver doesn’t see the road 5+ days a week. But the cadence will, for now. What will change is the quality of each post should increase significantly. That’s a win I will take, and a standard both you and I can be in favor of

So, welcome to the first edition of Daily DRVN Weekly.

On a positive note… I am proud to say we have accepted our first sponsor. Please check out Bonner Wines below. Showing interest in their offerings really helps this publication. Cheers!
