It feels overwhelming, and the more you try, the more blocked you are.
I used to feel this way whenever I was creating new content or writing a script for my podcast, or just writing an email.

That’s exactly how I was feeling for a long time until I understood that creating great content is not enough.
I learned that the hard way, spending long hours creating content, researching topics, and adding lots of value just to see how no one was seeing my content.
Creating remarkable content without spending time and resources promoting that content is a bad strategy. Is ...
Until I figured out this, my content was having ZERO engagement.
I was wondering why my content was having not traction, clearly, I was doing a huge mistake with my content creation.

In my personal experience, if you are working to build a massive online following, there is a counterintuitive strategy to follow: create one true connection at a time.

Today, we are living a totally different reality.
Bur for some reason, people still think that working from home as something temporary. You know, if you are not working in an office, you are not actually working after all.
