How’s everyone doing as 2023 comes to a close?
As we bid farewell to the year, December has given me the opportunity to reflect and recalibrate my goal projects. Lately, I’ve found inspiration in Gary Vaynerchuk’s lectures and his insights into the realm of social media. Before we delve further, let’s take a moment of silence to honor Charlie Munger.
The financial world has lost one of its finest, Warren Buffett’s right-hand man. While I may not know much about Charlie, delving into Warren Buffett’s life inevitably introduces me to the profound impact Charlie had. We all have something to learn from Charlie, whether our interests lie directly or indirectly in the financial realm. May Charlie’s legacy endure, and may his teachings continue to guide us toward achieving our financial goals.
Now, back to Gary. For some reason, I find a connection to much of what he shares. I recall an interviewer asking Gary about the reasons people struggle to succeed on social media, and Gary pointed to two main culprits: scarcity and perfectionism.
Oh, how relatable! These happen to be the very reasons I find myself posting less on Instagram. But fear not; a change is on the horizon. Stay tuned for updates as I plan to break free from the shackles of scarcity and perfectionism. Here’s to a new chapter!
