It's funny how I talk about showing up and showing up for your audience and showing up for yourself and all of those things . I did the activation welcome call yesterday and I told the story of in 2018 , i had my first webinar . I even joke that I don't even think that I don't think I knew what the word master class was .
I was trained and had very bro marketing influences . I caught it a webinar . I did this webinar eight times in a less than four week period and I learned a lot . I think I learned more about myself than anything else because on the first one that I did , even though I had signups , no one showed up . No one showed up .
I even said in the training I had two options don't show up or show up . I decided to show up because number one , i didn't know what I was doing . Number two , it was great practice . Number three , it was also on webinar software . Somebody could have came on late . They didn't , but they could have . I fumbled , i was in nervous wreck .
I remember being so nervous and I was a nervous wreck and I was so scared , but I did it . I did it . Each one of those eight got easier and at the time , i didn't know I was just doing eight . I was like I'm gonna do it twice , full , really confident , and so it ended up being eight . The second time , i think someone showed up late .
The third time , maybe two people , but it was like very , very slow , right .
But the point is is that I showed up and I believe back then this is just my honest belief I was nowhere near as visible as I am now , so people didn't really know who I was , and I believe that back then , i wasn't showing up for myself like I should have been or I could have been , or as consistently as I could have been .
So , therefore , others weren't showing up for me either , and I think that's a really , really good call out , because , when I look back at my business , i think this says a lot about the way I've lived my business .
To be honest with you , i show up in my business like it's my job , but also I'm obsessed with it , right , i really really do love what I do .
Back in 2018 , i needed a lot of validation and I'm thankful that that one time that no one showed , that I still showed , and then I kept going , because I think , you know , allowing the show to still go on is hard sometimes , right , i didn't let it stop me and I did eight , in that you know , less than four week period , which is pretty huge .
The other thing is is that I show up for you when you don't show up . Show up for you and let me explain whether anybody shows up for trainings paid , not paid I show up , i am there , i am my word , always , sometimes without instant gratification , and that's okay .
I also have realized that one thing that's helped me be really successful is that I don't think about this launch , i don't think about this piece of content , i don't think about this offer . I think about the longevity . Everything I do is for the longevity of my business . I , you know , it's probably why I've been in business for seven years now .
I know it will work . It just may not always work in my timing right , my preferred timing , and I think when you decide I'm in this for the long haul , one bad day , one bad launch , one bad video , or I , when we say bad video , will say no view .
Video is not gonna stop me , and I learned this from one of my mentors and I will never forget this and I will always say this is that I win in every situation . I win in every situation . I won that day that no one showed up , but I did . It showed me that I am my word . I can do hard things and humility truly is a great practice .
I've done way too much growth on myself to give up . I've done way too much growth on myself to let one bad thing stop me , or one dissatisfied launch or stop me , or one bad day , one Bad , even weak . At this point right , there are so many things that go on in our business .
We don't have control over a lot of them , but I can show up , i Can say yes to myself and I can not allow little things to hinder me and Make sure that I've always taken the true data over the drama .
And I want to encourage you today to show up Like it's your job , but find a way to enjoy it , because when you enjoy it , your audience is going to enjoy it and you're going to magnetize way more people to you .
When you enjoy something , then when you don't Pour it into your audience , show them how excited you are for them To see a result , to see a transformation , and whatever it is that you do .
I Have never regretted showing up for my audience , even back in the days when I my messaging sucked , it was off , it was quantity over quality , like I can see so many things like when I look back . But I don't regret showing up . Even when I wasn't my best , even when I my messaging wasn't the best , i still showed up .
You get better as you go and that , my friend , is a promise I can make .
