I’ve heard several people express worries that establishing a business might make them sound “stupid.”
When speaking in settings like sales calls, they could initially come across as unfamiliar with the subject and uncomfortable.
If we are hesitant to start as beginners and are afraid of failure, we cannot improve, and that’s the truth.
This is best summed up by the Cher quote, “Most people are frightened of looking silly, thus they seldom achieve anything great.”
I’ve had sales calls go terribly and experienced embarrassing moments. But it was all a part of who I am and my path.
The adage “Perfection is the enemy of the good” comes to mind.
Although we may believe that our ignorance prevents us from providing people with value, nobody is an expert in everything.
No advertising specialist is an expert in everything!
We are all still learning, and the only way to excel at something is to have the guts to take the initiative and enter the competition.
Imposter syndrome does not go away as most people believe.
Conscientious people are constantly evaluating themselves, regardless of where they are in the game. Because of this, humans can use their creativity and continue to advance.
