🙋♀️ Sunday's Burning Question:
Why others succeed & not me?!
A new day begins.
You turn on your computer.
Zero sales.
At the same time, what did you expect?
You haven't launched anything new in the last few weeks.
Your business is at a standstill.
However, you know you're capable of more.
But you no longer have the energy.
Your content is bland.
You've lost the enthusiasm you had at the beginning.
So you open 𝕏 or LinkedIn to find inspiration.
You see all these creators getting hundreds of thousands of views & engagement.
For them, it seems to be booming.
So why do you feel like you're stuck in one place?
You put away your phone and look at the ceiling.
Is this really for you?
Wouldn't you be better off getting a "normal" job in a stable company?
Of course, that doesn't excite you.
Working to build dreams of others... in a cold and soulless company... with colleagues who only care about their vacations... Brrrr!
But are you really capable of doing something else?
If you see yourself in this description, you need to know this:
You are far, very far from being alone.
Even those who orchestrate their success on social media have doubts.
But we agree: this situation is unsustainable.
It damages your self-esteem.
It's a vicious circle.
The fewer results you have, the less energy you have.
The less energy you have, the less you move forward.
And the less you move forward, the fewer results you have.
What you need is to get out of it as soon as possible.
How?
By accomplishing things that make you proud.
Scrolling through 𝕏 or collapsing in front of Netflix doesn't make you proud.
Reading negative news and criticizing people on LinkedIn doesn't either.
What makes you proud is moving towards your goals.
You don't need to make $10k before breakfast.
All you need is to recreate a positive loop.
For example, by immersing yourself in a quality book on your topic.
By completing the last course you bought and abandoned after the first lesson.
By creating that video that has been lingering on your to-do list for too long.
Choose what you want, but get moving.
Don't succumb to the collective apathy, which consists of doing the minimum while waiting for retirement.
(The perfect recipe for a shitty life).
Nurture your passion by working on it, exploring new things, experimenting despite your imperfections.
Don't be too hard on yourself: the goal is not to mistreat yourself, quite the opposite.
Believe in yourself, you know you're capable.
So allow yourself to work towards achieving it.
I’m believing in you 💛
