Hi there, 🖐
The other day I was writing a strategy plan for a client ✍✍✍, when something dawned over me. 💭💭💭
A company, organization or institution all want you to praise them 🙏🙏🙏.
A little pat on the back if you will. 👋👋👋
I mean, even a individual entrepreneur wants a little bit of credit for their endeavors. Right?! 🤔🤔🤔
But, how many of them are willing to risk and sacrifice time⌛️, money 💶💷 and effort 💻☎️⚗ for you to do so?
So many of them have that sense of entitlement. 🎖🎖🎖
So please if you don’t mind, could you tell me what you’re entitled to? 🙄🙄🙄
What are you doing that gives your audience the push to say that you rock?! 🎸🎸🎸
How much value do you give for FREE before you start asking for money?! Or do you only ask for money? 💷💶🙄
As always, I’d like to take a maxim from Benjamin Franklin. ✍✍✍
He said,
“If you would reap praise you must sow seeds, gentle words and useful deeds.”
Benjamin Franklin
Pretty deep, right?! 💭💭💭
Let me break this down even further. 📚
To sow seeds would mean to plant ideas and opinions into the world, now we must do that with gentle words or kinds words and it should be equipped with useful deeds he says. By useful deeds I believe he means giving value. Giving insights into useful ideas and theories. I have began to break it down to this formula. 📚📈📉📊
Education. + Inspiration x Motivation = Innovation 🎨🎨🎨
What do you think?! 💭💭💭
Cheers for reading,
