Being True to Me

I just have to share this with you all!

So the longer I work online and the more I write the more I am coming into my own. The more I am being true to myself.

Maybe I can explain it better like this. When I first started writing online I was so worried about what people would think, so worried about being "professional" and what do people want to read... how would they like me to write...

I did ok like this, yes... but the more I write the less I care about how I should be doing it and do it the way I like doing it. I care less about whether people like me or not. I care about being me and not being afraid to be me.

And the results have been incredible!

For starters I find it so much easier just writing what feels great to me. It goes so much quicker and I don't have to think so much.

And the other result is that I am getting real engagement on my websites, on my youtube videos and on social media.

Um so not all of this engagement is happy stuff though, some people really hate me.

And you know what?

That is GREAT too. Not everyone will like me, some people will just take a look at my face and despise me. This is not my problem.

It gets people into a frothy on my website, my supporters get worked up and my haters well, they do what they do and spew out hate speech in my comments... but it means my readers are doing a lot of my work for me. I can just sit back and watch the discussions.

What I have found out is that this is great for my website rankings and people are coming back to watch the show!

I would rather have loads of people that really love my work and another huge bunch of people that really despise me.... than have everyone not know who the hell I am or care who I am.

I am being noticed and I am making an impact.

Happy Friday to you all, whether you love me or hate me... have a blast!

Yes, the best way to be true to others is beeing true to yourself. :))

I think I still care too much about what others think, Lynne. Your attitude is very refreshing and you certainly are causing a stir.

I always make a point to read your work. You are so refreshing compared to a lot of stuff. Being yourself is a real breath of fresh air in a sometimes stale world.
And I agree with what Marcus says, too.

Oh definitely, Lynne. This is absolutely the way to go. I noticed with your review of SmashFund that you just went for it and did it your way and said exactly what you thought.

If you are causing controversy, it means you are pressing people's buttons. This is a great indication that what you are talking about is worth discussing. If your content doesn't cause people to get passionate one way or the other, it means you're doing it wrong because you're not creating a spark in people.

And if you are being yourself, it will be so much easier to keep going.

But even the most successful people in the world have their haters. You can't please all of the people all of the time. But if you please half the people and the other half hate you, you're kicking up a storm that may bring you a lot of traffic.

Marcus yes, that is exactly it! I am enjoying it for sure.

Well done Lynne if we are true to ourselves only good will come from it.

Great blog and I love your work and reading all your blogs! Keep it up!

Exactly - stay true to yourself as that is the way forward!!!

Nice!I do not have any reason to hate you or other WA member!Cheers!

Great to hear from you Lynne you know where I stand

You are so right Lynne, they say all publicity is good publicity. The haters have their own problems lol. Keep on doing what you're doing :)
