I Did a Thing...I Wrote a Workbook (in a Weekend)

Yep. I finally did it. This past weekend, I challenged myself to do something a little crazy: Write, design, and publish a book on Amazon — in 48 hours.

Inspired by Noah Kagan’s Million Dollar Weekend, I decided to stop overthinking and start shipping. I wanted to test how far I could take an idea in just one weekend — from concept to completion.

The result? The Inner Game of Pickleball: 21 Day Workbook

Why This Project?

I’ve always loved W. Timothy Gallwey’s The Inner Game of Tennis. It’s one of those timeless books that makes you rethink performance — not just in sport, but in life.

The core idea?

“The opponent within one’s own head is more formidable than the one on the other side of the net.”

I took those concepts — self-trust, focus, awareness — and turned them into a 21-day guided workbook for pickleball and tennis players. Something practical. Something that helps you actually apply the Inner Game philosophy every day.

How I Built It (Fast)

I followed Noah Kagan’s approach: start small, move fast, and learn by doing. I used Canva to design every page and formatted it for Amazon KDP using this tutorial: Watch the video that inspired it all

Within a weekend, the workbook was done — from idea to live on Amazon.

This was more than a weekend project — it was a reminder that you don’t need months of planning to create something meaningful.

Sometimes, you just need a Saturday, a strong coffee, and the courage to hit publish.
