"How do I get started?"��This is the most common question I get from people.��This is how:��- start before you're ready�- start when you're uncertain�- be prepared to feel uncomfortable�- be prepared to suck in the beginning�- build your personal brand��When you keep working at it - luck and demand will find you.��After a while:��- you will get better�- you will get less no's�- you will start to enjoy it��It's not supposed to feel comfortable in the beginning. ��Keep going - it will be worth it.

The Power of Goals, Processes, and Actions 🌟🛤️💪
Setting goals gives us direction and purpose, acting as our North Star. 🌟 However, it's the processes and actions that truly drive progress and success. 🛤️

Goals define where we want to go, but processes break down the journey into manageable steps, creating a sustainable routine. 🗺️ Actions are the specific tasks we take within these processes, steadily moving us closer to our goals. 🏃‍♂️

Together, goals provide the vision, processes establish the framework, and actions deliver the results. 💼 This synergy ensures we not only stay motivated but also make consistent, tangible progress towards our aspirations. 🚀 Embrace your goals, but focus on the processes and actions that lead to success. 🎯
