When the opportunity comes, you have to be ready. Hard work will only take you so far.
In this episode, I encourage you in whatever you are doing. Hard work and mastering your craft are essential, but don’t be afraid to shoot your shot while doing that. There is a lot of value gained in doing things, even if you get rejected at first. Trying out things helps you make the necessary improvements.
Key takeaways from this episode:
- Do not be afraid. Shoot your shot.
- NO doesn’t mean never. It just means not now. Even if you get that NO, don’t stop. Just keep ongoing.
- Opportunities do not always just fall into one’s lap.
- It doesn’t matter what field you are in, but you always have to work and study hard to be better at it.
- We’re entitled to make mistakes, and that’s how we improve.
- Progression over perfection. Just get things done and make improvements along the way.
- Whatever your goal is, research it and see what others are doing.
- Accept negative feedback for your improvement.
Hello! I’m Phoenix.
As a hybrid shooter (photo & video), I quickly learned how brand content is so critical! I continued to create visual content for my brand, and my love for content creation grew. Working with creative entrepreneurs, I identified their consistent struggle with connecting their brand to engaging content.
Let's connect! I love to laugh, brunch, and drink margaritas. Join me on this entrepreneurial journey to be better.
