Oh my!

Now it all makes sense.

I would say I'm somewhat similar to Amarachi.

I have so many ideas, I want to do so many things.

There are 2 main industries I see myself in...

One is Design, I want to create appealing and functional designs for Brand Owners. And I currently do that, having to work with quite a number of people/business owners/brands.

The other is Counseling & Consultation, and I want to focus on the Relationship aspect of it. Being able to speak and counsel people, giving them clarity and helping them with practicable solutions to their problems.

The issue now is how to combine the 2, into one, even though they're two separate ideas.

I would say I started a Counseling Brand 2 years ago but it's not really functional anymore. Currently I've started a Newsletter where I write on Problems people face with respect to Love and Relationship.

Now I have to look inward for my mission, build my personal brand first, before having to build a product around this.

Thank you very much Ajulu for this letter. I look forward to your responses.

Having good intentions is not enough when it comes to building a brand.

You need proof and systems.

Design and counselling are very much compatiable, you just need to have executed to the point where you can defend both with content.

It is easier for people to follow you if they are seeing something in you that they admire.

You need to learn and implement everything that would help you serve business better.

I don't know if you have an agency or use freelance platforms, but no matter which

Create impact and communicate that Impact until you grow your own distribution channel, then you can push any brand that you want to bring to life

Thank you so much for this.

I finally understand why I can't really stick with one idea and always want to jump on the newest idea that I have.

No wonder no of those ideas really go anywhere

However, I have a question

How do I develop my central mission?. and does it have to be centered around something I love?

Your central mission evolves with time

When I started, my central mission was " Helping People Grow and Represent Themselves better by leveraging the Internet"

Over time, I realize that business growth was tied to personal growth so In incorporated that.

My Mission became "Teaching People How To Use Content and Community to Earn Customers/Clients"

It is the things that I have executed on that has gotten me to my current vision.

"Elevating personal and business brands using systems,content and community"

Your goal should be to become the best in the world at what you do.

Keep redefining what you do until this become true.

Thank you very much for this sir.

With respect to systems, I'm currently on a personal development journey to build systems and structures to help show up as much as I can with proof that I'm good at what I do.
