Am I not just so lazyyyðŸ˜
When I started learning Copywriting I had a very busy schedule. I just started learning Copywriting then and I didn't even have a portfolio or any clients yet but I was so busy and choked.
I wasn't going to school or working a busy 9-5
Although I was Learning Crypto Community management at that time but let's say I was perpetually idle.
I spent my days at home all day and the only thing that could cause storm to the still river of my life was house chores.
Yet I was soo busy
Why?
Overloading
I planned to do so much, I imagined doing so much then I worried I wasn't doing so much and the cycle went on and on and on for a month. I felt I was being hardworking by overloading myself with very unreasonable and unrealistic goals.
You can imagine that by taking a look at my past schedule.
Pray- Optional (can you imagine this was even Optional 😔🤦)
Read 30 pages of Oglivy
Attend 2 hours of an Alison course
Watch 20 YouTube videos per day
Read one of David Oyedepo's books (I'm a die hard fan of these ones)
Rewrite one piece of copy
Write anything
Research
Read 5 pages of the crypto book
Can you imagine me doing all that under less than 18 hours when I will still have to eat, gist, chat, sleep, run errands.
At the end of one months I didn't finish any book, finished only one course. My eyes ached from videos and I didn't have one piece of copy to show as proof
I realised that if I continued like that I would never make it.
Too much activity doesn't guarantee productivity.
At a point I was like this has to work,😤
Am I not just so lazyyy for not being able to achieve those things daily 😫
Don't decieve yourself as I did my dear friend.
Maybe you aren't even like me that was completely idle. Maybe you are a student or even a 9-5 worker.
In whatever situation you are, while learning about web3 or any skill in general, never be pushed to overload your self.
Have you been feeling that inner pinch that you haven't made any progress in your learning process, well that's a valid fear. But here's my genuine advice
If you want to achieve the best you must pace yourself, make achievable goals and give it your maximum and not your over working power.
People say push hard, life is short but it doesn't mean you should run faster than your eye lashes😂
They may say or you may feel you are lazy but the truth is Taking your time to achieve your best is achieving your maximum while doing nothing at all is Laziness. Know the difference between the two of them and use that to rate your success from today.
So as far as you're taking daily action to improve your skills you aren't lazy
Just make sure you are doing something, no matter how little and no matter how short. Even 30 minutes per day devoted to that skill is okay then you can increase it per time.
You are a well paced digital wizard not a jack of all trades.
Web3 is meant to bring you freedom and flexibility not make your life difficult. The sweetest part about Web3 is that you can mix it and blend it in with any other of your activities.
So take the chance today and don't relent
Hope this tip changed something for you.
