I feel you! If it's any consolation, I actually think imposter syndrome is a good sign -- it means you're stepping out of your comfort zone and taking creative risks!
"How do you figure out something original to say when it feels like everyone else has already said it all? Actually, you don’t. Because being original is highly overrated."
I think the thought that I have to be original really paralyzed me from putting my stuff out there, both on Substack and YouTube. I was obsessed with this apathetic thought, "Why bother? Anything I have to say has already been said by thousands of others." So thank you for that validation.
Thanks Seth! I realized I don't even know if the cutesy pointing at words videos are a thing anymore. That's how out of the social media loop I've become... and damn, it feels good. 😎
This is great advice!
Just one problem… it’s original so it stands out 😉
Ha! You've got me there.
Hehe 😉- thanks again for the insightful advice 😊 🙏
I absolutely love your marketing advice!
