How did I get to 100 followers | My Journey on Medium
This is my first ever off-topic article instead of the Flutter series (The Mobile App domain which I’m part of currently). We’ll It took me exactly 84 days and 70+ articles ALHAMDULILLAH! to reach this point. Let’s move to the main content area to have a better paragraph of my 100 followers' journey.
I’ll be honest with you all and myself too. 6th June 2022 was the day I decided to continue writing 1 blog per day having those domain-specific topics I was cleared to confidently jot down an article for. I had written One before in midst of September then I disappeared as a cloud. Before this journey, I did not have the confidence I was living my life in a cage or something similar. But eventually, I mind-mapped myself to dive onto this platform and say my word too. Initially, I only planned for a 100 follower count by writing 1 article a day without any gap.
I started well, apart from a sometimes office workload I managed to invoke myself daily, but in between, I missed out too, due to procrastination.
I’ve got a Ph.D. degree in procrastination. I consider it my enemy but can’t get rid of it either.
However, The lesson I learned from writing, is not just that but most importantly mind-mapping is, If you strongly believe in something and set a goal, you can achieve that. Obviously, the starting days are struggling days but after some time you will definitely see the rising sun.
As I mentioned above, I was living in a cage, in my house, the entire day, with 200+ friends on Facebook but not of any use. 500+ followers on Linkedin but not of any use.
I don’t know if maybe I should mention this or not, From the start, from my schooling till my Graduation journey, I got bullied by my so-called friends or classmates. You could know it better if you’ve faced a similar situation. A person loses self-esteem, and self-confidence, maybe they throw the idea of doing something big even. At that time, these all happened to me. People feel happy hurting others.
So, I decided to stay away for some months from those rascals and tried to surround myself with better people. It was tough but Alhamdulillah! It got successful.
In winding up this article I would love to say to all who read this.
Always believe in Almighty Allah. Without a doubt, He has better plans for you.
Surround yourself with good people, have the right mindset
Avoid procrastination (I’m trying as well)
