DONT BE A PERFECTIONIST

Dont wait till its 'just right.'
Dont keep it hidden until you’ve 'worked out all the kinks' or fixed all the typos or even finished your thought.

Put it out there as soon as you got something even vaguely presentable, roughly done, somewhat finished.

You dont have a brand. You dont have a reputation. You dont have rhe luxury to even pretend to be perfect.

Until you're making millions or have millions watching/reading you then you don't have the luxury to wait till you feel good about it.

You'll NEVER feel good about it. If you do.. you're probably already too late. Your handful of 'fans' have moved away.. they moved on.. the market has changed... you time has gone.

Its not about quality.

When you're just starting. When you have little or no attention...
QUANTITY == QUALITY

You have to practice. You have to learn and grow. Not jusy your craft, but the WHOLE PROCESS.
You have to EXPERIENCE the process of PUBLISHING,
MARKETING,
ENGAGING,
SELLING,
and more...

Dont be like me.. dont procrastinate. Because thats what you're doing when you wait till you have a certain amount written; till youve checked the grammar and your punctuatuon and your contractions and blahblahblah...

THE ONLY THING THAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU WAIT IS YOU FAILING TO IMPROVE YOURSELF OR YOUR CRAFT.

So if you want to do something.. do it. And do it as much as possible, as consistently as possible. If you do that long enough, youll learn to naturally make more things of quality in less time.. buy only if you DO IT.

I wrote this in ~15 minutes.. I've written 200+ blogs in 2 years...
I still have much to learn, but I Learned a lot by just doing.
