You Are Doing It Right As Long As You Are Doing These Two Things
If you can tell yourself:
“I am helping others.”
“I enjoy this.”
You’re doing it right.
Far too often, it’s easy to start doubting yourself when you try to learn what it takes to be successful in starting a business or merely being a creator.
You doubt because:
. You try to find out what’s trending today and wonder if you are capable of it.
. You try to study the algorithms (which is largely random) and lament why it doesn’t seem to make, you of all people go viral.
. You feel inferior when you see supposedly successful people make way more money than you.
. You get overwhelmed by the many platforms and its intricacies out there.
Chill.
Never boil the ocean.
Take one, tiny step a day while going back to the core ideas that are simply wanting to help others and enjoying it at the same time.
Be curious every day and that is how you can achieve both.
