Be yourself. There is nothing more valuable than authenticity. Instead of doing things according to whether others would like it or not, or according to whether or not it will work, or according to whether or not it will look good or bad… do them because you want to and because you feel like it and nothing else.
It’s absurd to have wasted 7 years trying to grow social networks because all the “experts” in “digital marketing” told me that this was “what I had to do” and that “it’s a long-term race, if you keep posting everyday one day it will happen and your grow will rocket”. And f***, the only thing that has happened is that I have ended up burned out, with immense stress, ruined health, and lost time that I will never recover, in addition to having made me neglect my website that was a monthly expense. All because of the damn algorithms. Of course I sent them to hell and deleted them all (except YouTube of course, but I’ve never considered it a social network, and I don’t understand why people see it that way).
This is something that I just learned although I have always intuited it. When I’m not creating something and being creative, I get into depression, which makes it more difficult for me to want to create something, and I go into a general apathy that doesn’t let me do anything in my life. This explains a lot of things.
There is a very good book called “The Van Gogh Blues” by author Eric Maisel that deals specifically with this topic.
