The Importance of Listening to Leaders & Following Your Gut Instinct
Its been a minute since I posted on this platform. Not that I was not on it just was focusing on business and the tools at hand.
Not sure how I want to go about this post but I do know that one this I have learned in the last six months or so is that times change and so do peoples perspectives.
When it comes to marketing online it is an ever evolving process of old versus new and knowing how to decipher what is truly valuable information instead of emotional jargon disguised in the fear of losing credibility.
When your livelihood is tied up in everything you know and then here comes along a new something that totally contradicts what we have been taught and implemented to see results, it is easy cringe and jump on the bandwagon of devaluation.
The fact is that we are in a new dotcom boom right now and most of everything we held sacred to our content creation process has is is being challenged by new and better tools and resources.
Not only that but Google has a program called "NARD" that threatens the very existence of content creators such as us.
So what do we do? Adapt and coexist. Six months ago I wash bashed on this platform for using ChatGPT. Fast forward to now and you see training videos on it all the time along with blog posts without an ounce of backlash.
What happened? Some woke up and others just stayed silent. Those who woke up went on to create dozens of blogs with massive content like myself that, yes, ranks on Google.
While others are still stuck on the intricacies and suttle unneccessary precautions they feel are important because that is how they were taught to do at one point in time.
In a nutshell, follow sources, several sources. Community is great and very important for support if that is what you need. But where you choose to learn from is vital.
As they say, never put all your eggs in one basket.

I am just one of those that when you say something will not work when as of yet it has not been proven not to work, I will put it to the test.
Great to hear from you again JR and you are certainly not wrong here!
We must all make the most of all of the available tools out there in order to succeed or just get left behind!!
Appreciate the share my friend and keep on succeeding!
One thing I have learned is that there are a lot of people with silent success doing exactly what we do. Sometimes far above the faces we have been accustomed to seeing. We learn from them all.
There are a lot of questions these days but you’re right about following your gut and doing what works for you. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

Its all about keeping an open mind when it comes to content creation. Not just in the content creation itself but in the behind the scenes setup that leads to a successful blog.
All is well Abie thanks for the polite concern. I am always in and out of the platform. Just had my head down barreling through to get my sites up.
