Creator Wizard - 🧙‍♂️ Hard Things

Hey there,

I was coaching my son's T-ball game over the weekend and I randomly had the thought...

"Why does being a creator feel so hard all the time?"

I think it's because it feels like failure is around every corner with...

Social platforms constantly changing their algorithms
New platforms cropping up that I now need a presence on
Not having a clear picture on my various income streams
Increasing competition from other creators
Feeling like no matter what I do or what content I create, I just can't. seem. to. grow.

Hit reply if you've felt any of these recently? 😅

I just wanted to quickly mention one mindset shift that's given me a lot of peace recently...

Being a creator feels hard because...it IS hard.

Who else is crazy enough to put themselves out there, risk ridicule from their family and friends ("when are you gonna get a real job?")...

All with the hope of one day "making it?"

Well...you are!

So, if you're receiving this email, that means that you're frickin' strong.

You can do Hard Things that most people cannot.

And because you choose to do Hard Things, that also means you have to realize that some Hard Things are outside of your control (hint: the algorithms).

BUT you know what's something you CAN control?

How you choose to feel about these Hard Things.

So the next time you get frustrated when you see other creators succeeding or getting amazing opportunities...

Remember that they're also doing Hard Things.

So let's raise each other up, not tear each other down.

And celebrate these Hard Things that we all choose to do. ✌️

OK...gotta run to the post office before it closes lol
