That's what I told a friend who asked me to meet me so that I could explain to him how to begin creating content and gaining a following.
But I'm better, simply because I have done this before. Not because my content will be better than his!
I'm better than you. For now.
For years, I was sick of watching people succeed online with worse skills than me.
Yet they executed.
In the meantime, what did I do?
I created plan after plan. I was reinventing myself over and over again.
I was overthinking.
Maybe that's how you feel about me.
Perhaps you could make better videos than me. Or create a more profitable business. Or, you can speak English much better (very likely).
Yet you're reading my letter instead of me reading yours. 😏
Does that make me better than you? No.
Sometimes, I feel I cannot compete online. Social media makes sure to remind me I'm not as skillful or smart as the competition every time I check a feed.
Then I remind myself that people are making a comfortable living by
- hiking
- sharing their depression
- by documenting their 9-5 job 👇
Surely, I can do something similar.
And I bet you can, too.
That's how I ended up posting a YouTube short every day this week.
