3 Things I Wish I Had Known Earlier When I Started Writing

I went from 4 views a day to 400 because of them.

I used to get only 4 views a day.

Now, I average 400 views.

Here are 3 things I wish I’d known earlier:

1.) An email list is super important

I used to believe building on social media was enough.

But that’s not true.

It took me 11 months to realize that your traffic source can collapse overnight.

An email list is critical because you control your own traffic.

Now, I never stress when algorithms change again.

2.) Be a valuable source

If you don’t share value, this happens:

• People won’t trust you.
• They don’t read you.
• Then your creator's dream? Gone.

That’s why creators need to learn how to build trust.

3.) You can’t please everyone

Knowing you can’t please everyone sharpens your message like a knife.

It makes your message super strong when you stop writing for everyone.
