Go for the (s)kill. Why should people just shut their mouths🤐 and do more rather than advertise more than what they have done?
Economists call our oldest mode of making a living 'the hunting and gathering stage'.
how do you hunt?
simple:
you need a skill(you build it by trial and error)
your talk won't do the job.
Yes you need to advertise(taught to me by Avneesh Mishra)
allow me to explain...
You like stories? Here‘s one.
I went to a barbershop, and the barber asked me a gazillion questions from where I work, to where I was from, then drew my family tree with his questions. When he was done. I didn't like my hair or beard when I stepped out of the shop.
I remember another barber who didn't say a word and was always busy with his scissors looking at my hair from different angles and when he was done, Michelangelo's David 🍑used to come out(clothed) from the shop.
Reminds me of Steve Martin when acting students would come and ask him about how to get an agent, and to that he would reply that shouldn't you be focused on being good first
Go for the heart of the matter, go for the kill, go for the skill.
