If you feel like GIVING UP, please read this: Some of you thought of quitting this year, because this shit is tough. Everywhere you turn, it feels like no one cares. “I’m talking to myself...” you say, as you gently put down your camera. You decide to turn everything off, because it’s too painful to see your disappointment in the light. But answer this: can you grasp onto faith and trust the TIMING of your journey? Can you appreciate this process and remember what made you fall in love in the first place? What keeps you coming back? I’ve had to channel these thoughts numerous times. I’ve held my breath at night waiting to be seen, only to wake up gasping for air. No matter how much water you drink, that type of feeling never goes down easy. So many days, I have questioned my impact as a creator, tripping over low engagement and a lack of likes. And I promise, it’s not just me or you - we all do. But then, something funny happens. Life hands you exactly what you’ve been asking for. And after coming up empty for weeks/months/years, your hands are unbelievably FULL. Suddenly, there isn’t a basket big enough to capture the blessings falling into your lap. Don’t let the spirit of comparison steal your joy. Don’t get so caught up looking at everyone else that you forgot the beauty in YOU. Imagine being 100 videos in and ready to quit, without noticing that your breakthrough is only 1 more away? I hope you remember my words next time you forget why you’re here. And when your time comes and the good tides start to overflow, you better be ready to catch the wave and take it all the way to the top #contentcreators #blackcreators #dontgiveup #liveyourdreamseveryday #doitordietrying #dowhatyoulove
