What Is Moving Forward?
"There are seven days in the week, and someday isn't one of them."
Resource mentioned: the Momentum Chrome extension.
Overcoming Doubt & Impostor Syndrome
Impostor syndrome can be defined as a collection of feelings of inadequacy, experienced internally as chronic self-doubt and feelings of intellectual fraudulence.
"To overcome doubt, do something out of your comfort zone."
Remedy: be genuine and be yourself, and there's nothing to worry about. Respect and learn from others in the same space, but don't measure success against what others are doing — focus on being you, and people will respond.
Moving Forward
Keep learning, keep creating, and keep working to improve and establish authority in your space. Push past your comfort zone and forward motion follows. There's no such thing as overnight success — the hard work is what eventually pays off.
Small steps:
Happy Holidays!
—Mike
Music: "Life of Riley" & "Wallpaper" (incompetech.com).
