I understand the contradiction here.
I’m telling you not to take advice. If you don’t, you would have indeed followed my advice. Trippy.
There are a million different people with a million different experiences with a million different ways of doing things.
You are you.
Regardless of how successful anyone has been, you must always remember that they have values, stories, and strengths which differ from your own.
I’m not saying you should ignore every single person who could teach you something. Observe others. Get inspired by them. Try out their methods.
Just don’t feel like a failure when their methods don’t produce the same results for you.
Try a bunch of shit and see what works and what doesn’t work for you.
One day, someone will look at your process and try to emulate you.
