Some people get it.
Some people won’t.
And that’s fine.
I’ve been speaking to podcast guests a lot recently.
And potential sponsors, in the wee hours.
Which sounds ridiculous, in a way.
Because the podcast technically doesn’t exist yet.
It is starting from zero.
Six episodes filmed.
Nine live by mid-year.
Thirty by the end of the year.
No audience.
No downloads.
No “proof”.
Yet.
And despite that … people are backing it.
Why?
Because some people understand what I am trying to achieve and who I am trying to help.
Those people understand that things worth building don’t look impressive in month one.
And others ... they don’t.
That doesn’t make them wrong.
It just means they’re not right for it, yet.
If you’re building something meaningful, you will look delusional before you look successful.
That’s normal.
It wasn’t overnight.
It never is.
Keep going.
Agree? Or have I completely lost it? 😅
Probably the latter, right 🤣 ?
I would love to hear your thoughts,
Mikey
