stop being a little bitc#

Someone emailed me recently saying I was childish.
They had subscribed, taken a look at my free checklist, and then promptly unsubscribed.
They said they were looking for something more professional.
I guess they didn’t like productivity advice like:
Stop being a little bitc#
Or:
Do the sexy snake dance.
(That’s a few thousand emails thrown in the spam box right there).
That’s fine, of course. You already know (if you read yesterday’s email) that I see the fear of disappointing people as a freedom killer.
I can’t possibly have been writing online and making a living from my own words for more than a decade if I closed shop after one or two criticisms.
I don’t always love the feeling of being judged.
But I am okay that it happens.
It’s no longer an indication of something wrong in me. I see it as a positive indicator that I’m doing what I’m supposed to be doing.
The things that resonate most strongly with some people will repel others. That's how resonance works.
If your message stands for anything, or even reflects the real you, there will be a divide.
I’m here to tell you that this is part of being a writer, a creator, or anyone who wants to move people with their ideas.
So, if you ever feel worried that you’re upsetting or disappointing people, if you KNOW you’re creating from a good heart, a good intention...
You’re okay. You’re doing it right.
And you need to stop being a little bitc#.
P.S. My let go of the s#it that weakens you course literally guides you through re-wiring the beliefs that keep you worrying about what others think.
If you’re done with caring too much about potential criticism, and you can see the cost, take the punt. Get the course.
(I’m dropping the price for a few hours only today because I hate that some of you need this course but haven’t been able to)
