Starting something new

My whole life I’ve been an introvert and let fear hold me back from trying a lot of different things. Things I definitely could’ve excelled in had I just tried them out. Well this year I’m not doing that anymore. For the past few years I’ve had a deep interest in content creation but never attempted to try. Fear of failure and judgement held me back. Well who cares if people judge, it’s human nature 🤷🏽‍♀️🤣 and to quote something my old manager wrote “Life’s only failure is you not trying.“ I’m not getting any younger and life is way too short to wait for the right time to start so here I go! 😊

... Read moreOvercoming the fear of trying something new is a common struggle for many, especially for introverts. The journey into content creation can be both exhilarating and intimidating. It's essential to remember that the initial steps often yield significant personal growth. As you embark on this path, consider setting small, achievable goals; this will help you gain confidence gradually. Additionally, connecting with like-minded individuals in online communities, for instance through platforms like Lemon8, can provide you with the support and encouragement you need. Engaging with others who are also beginning their content creation journeys can help banish feelings of isolation. In today's digital age, creating content isn't just about sharing; it's an opportunity for self-expression and, more importantly, the ability to connect with a global audience. As a newcomer, don’t hesitate to experiment with different formats and topics until you find what resonates with you. Remember, every accomplished content creator started somewhere. Your unique voice and perspective are valuable contributions to the online space. And most importantly, don’t let the fear of judgment hold you back. As you continue this journey, reflect on the wisdom that “life’s only failure is not trying.” Allow yourself the grace to learn and grow through the process.

3 ideas for starting your book! ✍🏻
1) Drop right into the action: start in the middle of something thrilling—a fight, a chase, a heated argument. 2) Introduce a relatable inner conflict: begin with a character’s personal struggle, doubt, or hope … this creates an emotional bond from the first page. 3) Start with a vivid settin
