Are You Building a Business or a House of Cards?

Let's compare two types of creators. The one who builds a strong foundation and the other that prefers the house of cards. Both use and have access to the same tools and time.

Mrs Efficient, creates useful content that delivers answers and solutions building their business to withstand any storm. By storm, I am referring to algorithm changes, market shifts and passing trends.

The other, is Mr quick. who'd rather copy and paste. Get loads of content published and try to look like they are busy building something long lasting.

Both are the same and at the same time different. They create and publish daily, the only difference is one will make it and the other is destined for failure and will eventually blame the system because of it.

What is different between the two of them can be traced back to Core Training. One listened, built their sites by example and followed along. The other watched a couple of classes and jumped ahead, not learning the why behind what they were watching. One wants to learn to build a strong foundation for their future investment. The other learns just enough to guarantee business failure and financial destruction.

Here at WA, we have structured training that teaches. Instructors here have the experience that can show you the pathway to success. The ones who use and follow their advice often make it, and the know it alls are the ones building their house of cards. We all know what happens to a house of cards, maybe not today, but one day, it will come crashing down.

Why am I writing about this? When I started, I was Mr Quick. I watched and assumed I knew what I was doing. I had access to a great Article writer to create content for me. All I had to do at the time was add images. Nowadays, it does that for you, but back then it did not. I was copy and paste guy and yes I did pay for it. I failed.

Later in my journey, I buckled down and returned to training and learned not just how but why.

AI is a great thing, but daily I see it abused everyday. I read live articles, member "training" and other various content untouched by the human hand. It really is cringe so I tend to speak out about it to help you before it is too late and you waste your time and find failure.

I implore you to reevaluate your journey and make a decision. Are you going to build useful content for your future, or are you going to remain pigheaded and cook yourself into oblivion like a slab of bacon.

New people please stick with training and learn. Season members, reflect on training and continue to learn. The fact is, the internet is changing with the introduction of AI. If you fail to adapt, you will eventually fail. Useful content that solve problems is what will save you, and training is the only way to learn how. Never stop learning.

Use AI to help you and not do it for you. Jump into your content and express yourself. Quit using AI for comments and provide value to a conversation. Quit trying to train on that in which you haven't a single clue. Instead, Learn and then apply it. Ask questions, if you don't know and make an informed decision on which direction to proceed. Rely more on humans and less on GPT.

Yes GPT is a know it all, But at the same time it not only knows it, but it shares what you want to hear without providing the nuance or the dark side of the conversation. I will leave it at that as not to offend some people.

Have a Great Day, and if you have an attack or an opinion, The battlefield is below. I welcome any and all.
