Content Writing and Marketing Services
The best time to start is when everyone is expecting something from you.
Or when you come up with a spectacular idea.
Or when you decide to commit yourself.
Or when your business needs help.
Or when your business is close to becoming the next multimillion dollar business.
Or when you get inspired.
Or when your ready.
Or when you have a big audience.
Or when you realize you have a small audience.
Or this year.
Or next year.
Or…how about now?
The common saying goes, “When you create it, people will come.” Some things are just too good to be true. People automatically coming to see what you created is too easy.
You may have realized people don’t come automatically awhile ago, you might have just realized it’s true, or you don’t know yet since you haven’t launched a product. No matter how good your product is, people don’t know about you.
We are creatures of habit. You’ve visited the same grocery store for a while now, and other than some alteration, everything remains the same. You have that favorite website that you go on, or you buy products from your favorite seller.
The world is a big place, and with habit driving our decisions, we aren’t going to simply come and see what other people created. You have to make what you created worth sharing. What you created has to be spectacular so that people can proudly tell other people who you are.
The world is a very large place. When we think of inventors, most of us will think of Steve Jobs and Thomas Edison. The world has billions of people and 7 continents (and one of them is Antarctica). That’s a lot of people on each continent.
The people we remember such as Steve Jobs and Thomas Edison are the ones that did extraordinary things. They didn’t wait for people to come. They made sure that people came to see what they were all about.
In a big place like our world, people don’t come because they can’t see you. You have to make yourself be able to be seen.
It is possible to trick yourself, and sometimes, tricking yourself can be beneficial. I read an article about how a young girl didn’t feel any pain when she got stitches. The reason she didn’t feel any pain was because the doctor tricked the girl (in a good way).
The doctor had a lot of coloring books. He told the young girl what colors to use to color the pictures. Eventually, the doctor would tell the young girl to use a different color. This got the girl distracted from what was really going on: the stitches.
The same girl who moaned about the stitches ended up not even knowing that the stitches even took place. The girl felt no pain. Her mind tricked her into focusing on the coloring books instead of the stitches.
I recently tricked myself by creating a book with a giant list. I ended up writing over 5,000 words in 1 day. The only reason I know is that I just happened to look at the bottom of the document to see my word count.
You can make the difficult things seem easy by tricking yourself. Then, when you realize you tricked yourself, look at what you were able to do. It really works.
When a sale comes in, the product gets attention. When you get one sale, more sales will come in. Then, the sales start to pour in. A rainstorm starts with raindrops. When more drops come down, a drizzle of sales turns into a big rainstorm of sales.
Some people buy your products, then more people buy your products, and finally, client after client is coming to buy your product.
Have you ever wondered if there was a secret formula to success? The answer is that there is indeed a secret formula to success. It’s a complicated formula, and it isn’t as easy as finding the area of a shape.
The secret formula to success is being consistent and being able to learn as much as possible. My blog posts come from things that I learn in school, outside of school, or by reading books.
Once you constantly obtain a lot of knowledge, make sure you are doing the work at the same time. Knowledge allows you to do the work that will allow you to be successful.
Finally, as Steve Jobs said, think differently. Don’t be like the competition. Be different, be unique, and be you.
No matter how dedicated you are to your business, you can’t give yourself too much work. I had a goal to publish 1 book every month, but that task proved to be a difficult one to complete. I will be publishing 1 book every 2 months. That’s not as much work, and it allows me to write more quality content.
Don’t be afraid to give yourself less work. You need to have fun outside of your business. However, make sure you give yourself some work to do.
