#214: Master Your Mindset: Three Essential Actions for Digital Course Creators
Not for the first time I heard an entrepreneur sharing that something was hard for them and the other person said that they thought it was easy.
That kind of comparison makes entrepreneurship hard because we start to wonder what we are missing, if we aren’t cut out for the path we’ve chosen, or even if we are smart enough to make a go of our business.
We’ve all heard the saying, “Comparison is the thief of joy.”
The truth is that when we compare ourselves to others it can steal our joy faster than a toddler can grab a fourth cupcake off the party table.
Mindset is one of the biggest factors in entrepreneurial success, in fact at one point this podcast was called the Entrepreneur Mindset Podcast. That is how important mindset is to being a successful digital course creator, but it is a lifelong journey.
#205: How to Make the Most of Social Media Groups (Hint: Use Google Search More)
I’ve noticed a trend in course creation groups: asking for instructions on how to do a tech task. Sure you pay to be in these groups, they are filled with people who are on the same pathway you are, creating, launching, and serving a digital course, but the big, important questions can sometimes get buried under the smaller, simpler questions that can be searched on Google in 10 seconds or less.
This makes the groups less valuable. Hard stop.
You know I’m a big fan of being active in social media groups because you are building connections, trust, authority, and even gaining referrals.
So I understand the temptation to ask questions in the group when you get stuck. But that clogs up the groups and keeps your important questions hidden away. It is frustrating when you have a question about where a funnel isn’t working inside your business only to be drowned out by the mundane tech questions like how do I save as a PDF from a word document.
To get the most out of the paid and free groups that you are in, let’s talk about best practices and, of course, feel free to share this episode with your friends so that they too can become better members of those same groups you are in.
