With all the new likes/followers on Facebook,
I keep thinking of this quote from one of my very favorite authors.
“Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that but the really great make you feel that you too can become great. When you are seeking to bring big plans to fruition it is important with whom you regularly associate. Hang out with friends who are like-minded and who are also designing purpose-filled lives. Similarly be that kind of a friend for your friends.”
-Mark Twain
Let me tell you a little story, or make a confession, actually. I was afraid to start this style of marketing on Facebook where crafters "like" other crafters' pages and then share the new page. I thought this would water down my market and only help the really established pages in the long run. I thought I would start to create things based on what other people are selling and not stay true to my own style. I thought there would be too much competition. I was wrong. Dead wrong.
I've added new likes for sure, but more importantly, I've surrounded myself with people who are trying to do what I'm trying to do. Build their own business from home. I see their posts, I learn what works, I share in their ups and downs but most of all
I'M INSPIRED!
It really does help to surround yourself with people moving in the same direction. It makes it easier to "go with the flow." So, now that you've heard from me on my soap box, I'll tell you about the contest. Because I KNOW there are so many creatives out there who love a good challenge, here it is._
