There’s so much I don’t know.
And I am not trying to fake that I know more than I know.
As I grow, I feel like I’ve become more focussed on continuing to educate myself on how to get things done.
Not scrape by, but understand the processes to be not only be ready, but prepared to handle problems and fix situations.
I fix people. I’m good at it, and I’ll continue to get better at it.
I don’t know much about computers, marketing, technology, google, what’s scam or spam, or what’s worth investing in..and it’s frustrating
I had someone make my website and it’s cool and all, but when I have to edit and trouble shoot, I turn to the support system
Yesterday they asked me to make an edit whip ultimately ended up crashing my email forwarding. i could not send emails to clients when I had clients and potential clients waiting for responses.
I typically like to answer promptly and having this be out of my control, felt in this moment, as if I wasn’t in control of my business.
This was a terrible moment.
Mind you, I have hours of programming to do and at this time I had a client call scheduled at the same time I realized the crash happened.
Think. Act. That’s it.
I made a gut call to get on the phone with support which lasted for 2+ hours.
Instead of being impatient and frustrated, I decided to use this time to educate myself and grab hold of the reigns.
I know I won’t know as much as a google tech, but still, walking away from the call I can say I know more now than I did before.
Grow, or die.
Act, or lose
Decide or fall behind
Educate yourself, or be at the will of others.
This is with all things.
Your job, business, health, fitness, finances, your lover...all of it.
