Master of influence in progress. Grew to $120k/year and now I regret it. Co-founded Success Open Sourced to help create clarity in this entrepreneurial journey.
Over the past decade, I have taught hundreds of small (but powerful) Skill Development Tips to beginning entrepreneurs.
But this ONE accumulated more than 100 success stories and countless career advancements.
Here it is in the thread: 🧵
You’re not being seen because you’re working in isolation.
Most of us feel invisible in our field despite having potential.
We believe hard work should speak for itself, but it doesn’t.
And I get it; it takes trial and error to figure it out, and you will.
Just Don't Quit.

Networking isn't about collecting contacts.
It's about creating genuine connections.
Invest time in authentic relationships within your industry.
Why?
Because true connections lead to recognition and opportunities that a large contact list can't provide.
Building influence isn’t just about your skills. It’s about your story and how often you tell it.
Share your experiences and successes consistently.
The more familiar people are with your story, the more they trust and recognize you.

Feel like you’re not being seen?
Share your journey and insights regularly on platforms your audience uses.
Consistency builds familiarity and trust, making you more recognizable and influential in your field.

Feeling drained because there's a lot on your work plate?
It happens to me too.
It's called "ego-depletion," the idea that self-control or willpower depletes a limited pool of brain power we have in a day.
Your answer to peak performance can be found right there.
Burnout isn’t just about physical exhaustion.
It’s about mental depletion.
Too many activities lead to mental fatigue, which increases stress and reduces performance.

@supermanuelsaez Those moments are priceless! In a way, it feels like I'm accessing "another me."
This might be too deep of a comment haha
Nonetheless, thank you for letting us into your world!
At the end of the day, it's all about the "last" feeling that we left in another person's life...
These impressions add up to an unmistakable experience.
Thank you, Sam, for the great words here!
