Stop Being Selfish
❌ ✋🏽 Stop. Playing. Small. ✋🏽 ❌
If you have ever tried to create a course, a service, or product—or really anything you wanted to share with the world—you’ve probably discovered how difficult it can be to tell the world about your creation.
Sure, anyone can send one email or share one post on social media, but the truth is it takes a lot of energy to effectively introduce the world to your newest creation.
👉🏽 So we have to learn that creating something and promoting that thing are two separate activities. And BOTH are crucial for success.
Most people place their energy and money into the creation part because it’s more fun and more connected to their passion.
Then they have this secret yet unrealistic expectation that since our creation is so good, we won’t need to promote it. It will take off on its own.
I am here to lovingly but very directly tell you, that shit never happens. It’s a pipe dream that will ultimately lead to disappointment.
Because when your creation falls short of your expectation, you falsely take away the lesson that you have nothing worthwhile to share with the world.
Do that a few times and you will lose all faith in yourself.
I know there are many of you who are keeping really powerful gifts to yourself, and my hope is that this video will lovingly give you a nudge in the right direction.
Big love,
D
PS: Most people might not know this about me, but I can get really shy when it comes to promoting my own stuff. It does not come naturally. I have to work hard to build momentum and courage to share my creations with the world.
I wish it was easy and effortless, but it’s not. I am constantly hyping myself up and reminding myself of the very lesson I share in this video. 🙏🏽
