I Did This Unintentionally on LinkedIn — And It Became a Steady Flow of Extra Income for Me
It is a walk in the park.
I am an introverted guy — and being an accountant by trade is something that matches my work life.
I am seated at my desk almost all day long. Work on spreadsheets, process data into the system, and repeat this for years. I never liked gatherings. At some point in my journey, I yearn to speak but never in a big event.
The not-so emotional backstory
I want to share a piece of me with the public where I can freely express myself. But it should be a place where I am comfortable and not bound by any corporate rules.
It is my voice that will be heard — and nobody needs to approve or review what I have to say to the crowd. I met LinkedIn in 2009 — and after ten years (2019), I committed to myself that I would use the platform to amplify my voice.
People were doing it already for various reasons — and this time, it was my turn to speak my truth.
I talked a lot about my failed career attempts and office encounters. It received a few reactions — and when I increased the frequency of posting stories every week — my engagement increased as well.
