After 4 years with zero results last 2 years have brought results beyond my expectations:
• 108K on Instagram
• 10K on Linkedin
• 51K on Twitter
• 4,9K newsletter subs
• 150K+ of $ revenue
Three ideas that helped me and could help you gain progress:
1. A serious commitment.
2016-2019 I wanted to make it as a creative solopreneur
2020-2022 I was sick of dabbling and half-assing this dream and made a serious commitment to making it work
To do this you need two things: desire + belief.
Here's how to think about it...
1.1. Desire
What is that higher level of desire that you really want?
In my case, I wanted that “creative solopreneur laptop lifestyle.”
I wanted to have control over:
• what I do
• how I do it
• when I do it
• where I do it
Find the desire that’s real and true for you.
1.2. Belief
To strengthen your belief, these are the conversations you should have in my head:
“I believe in my abilities to figure things out. I have figured stuff out before. Why not this?”
“Loads of other people no smarter than me have done what I want. Why not me?”
2. Consistency with ability to iterate.
To get off the ground and to get noticed you need consistency.
You also need to find your thing. So it’s intrinsically motivating and something that the market appreciates as well.
Here’s a two-liner to summarize lesson #2:
3. Don't be a lone wolf.
If your friends are not into your stuff, there are many online communities where you can join and find likeminded people.
It's a gamechanger when you understand you're not alone.
Move forward with likeminded peers.
Find your support network.
