Need advice for making personal brand

You can't be the best future you, now.

It's literally impossible.

You'll have to be the best student you can be. So do that. Instead of building a personal brand of someone you are not, be the youest you you can be.

If you're frustrated, studying, and can't do anything. well nobody wants to read about that. They want to know what worked, what worked well, what worked beyond expectations, what's the 20% of the work that resulted in 80% of the results.

In order to be a good filter, you'll need to document a lot, contextualize and editorialize.

What I mean by that is that you need to do the thing, document the thing, and write about the thing you just did.

• Try Everything
• Document Everything
• Analyze Everything

Try Everything
Literally try every angle you can. Google, YouTube Videos, Blogs, Courses (free and paid), Mentors, Masterminds, Workshops

Document Everything
This is not just "learnings" but literally start dates, end dates. results. What resulted from that specific thing. Document it so you can review later what happened based on that. Because you sure can "document" the Key learnings right away, but honestly nobody cares. They'll care about the results.

Analyze Everything
This is where most personal brands absolutely fail. They just don't editorialize well, they don't contextualize. They don't really figure things out. But if you can document your results, your process, then you'll be able to craft your story better.

Just know that the steps you take don't matter. The fact that you take steps is great. but it's table stakes.

Above all, if you're aiming to build a personal brand, the main things to keep in mind are:

1. Be genuine, don't act like a used-car salesman
2. Always provide value, make sure your audience can actually do/learn something with what you're presenting them

Doing these 2 things well will ensure that your audience will value your opinion and return to your content whenever you release new stuff. When your audience values your opinions/insights/content, they will develop trust in you. In the future you can then launch to your audience, because they already see you as a valuable content contributor.

Perhaps in your case you can discuss with your audience your learning journey, providing insight into what tools and resources you're using to learn, as well as any steps you take in the process. This way, they can follow along with your learning and maybe even learn themselves.

Best of luck to you. 👍
