I hit $10K in earnings a few days ago and received so many messages asking what I did differently.
honestly, the only thing that really helped me was stopping the overthinking.I stopped thinking about all the possibilities. Stopped thinking about when it would happen. Stopped waiting for the perfect moment.
I just started taking action.
post your work. post your work. post your work.
don't think too much. just do it.
I'm still not where I want to be. but building in public has opened doors and brought opportunities I couldn't have imagined few months ago.
the miracles you're looking for is in the work you're avoiding 🚀
yeah, i totally agree. thanks for sharing. congrats and good luck

I don't know yet how fast this turns into clients. I'll keep showing up every day and report again in 10 days.
Pure consistency! Hitting top 20% creatives in 10 days by simply showing up and adding real value. Great hustle, Ivan!
Yesterday I had the chance to speak at the panel of the Contra Studios about where creative studios are going.
Had a lot of fun talking with @Jamey Gannon , Nick Pattison and @Shane Levine with Ron Golding moderating.
Thanks to the Contra team for bringing us together and to everyone who came out.
Still looking to land my first project on Contra, so I'm offering 50% off my first booking here.
