Potential lies within all of us, but that potential is garbage if you don't do anything with it. This is a podcast made to help content creators push past potential and become extraordinary. Now let's get into the episode. Finding your voice and consistent practice. My content creator journey? So far, part three. Being a solo pernore isn't for everybody, but if you want to give it a shot and think that it's a path that you want to go down, it's one of the most rewarding feelings to be able to generate income and passive income doing something that you love. The magic of showing your work. Sure, all it takes is one piece of content to change the game. You can go viral just like that on TikTok, right? But I wouldn't rely on that. Ultimately, it's about finding a consistent practice that comes with discipline and overall processes. So you're going to want to put out a large body of valuable work consistently over a long period of time. You want to be so good that they can't ignore you that I'm talking about. You got to want to hone your craft and really learn the ins and outs. If you're talking about men's style, you really want to dive deep into it and really know what you're talking about and at the same time be willing to turn out and put in that work and turn out work at prolific levels. This is something that I strive for. But it's learning to steal like an artist because no idea is original. There's nothing new under the sun. It's never what you do, but how it's done, right? So don't be afraid to steal from other people. And I'm not saying to blatantly rip them off or copy things word for word or anything like that. But what I'm saying is to gather inspiration from many different sources and then put your own unique spin on it because no one can do it like you can. So gather inspiration, cure rate and develop great taste because it's that great taste that's ultimately going to transfer on to your own content in the future. But it does definitely start with having great taste. Your level of content might not be there early on, but over time you'll start to hone that craft and it'll get more more precise and more valuable. You want to get in the zone, you know, like Disney's soul when you're in the zone, everything is effortless and that's where you want to be. I find that when you're doing things that you enjoy and see the impacts that your work is having on others, it's easy to get and stay in the zone. And when you're in the zone is where you can crank out lots of volume and be ultra efficient with your time. And finally, you got to keep going. And so if you can show up every day for two years straight, you'll be surprised at how much progress that you can make. It's all about getting 1% better each day and doing what it takes to push closer to your daily, weekly, monthly, and ultimately yearly goals. And you'll be surprised at how much you can accomplish and achieve in just a short year. In next week's episode, I'm going to touch on the struggles that I've gone through and I'm going through right now. Keep an eye out for that. That's it for this podcast, Past Potential with Koi. Thank you as always for listening and I'll catch you on the next one. Peace.
