Being visible as an artist, creator, and/or entreprenuer can be scary - but it can also be liberating. And so I ask the question: What’s the worst that can happen when you put
yourself out there?
The answer varies, and many people tell me they worry that people won't like them, that they'll be rejected, that they'll be laughed at.
Here's a truth about this: Everyone gets rejected; that is simply a law of
nature. Remember that the person doing the rejecting is only working on limited information. Rejection is not personal because it is based on so little—simply one person's
perceptions at that moment.
No one will laugh at you or dislike you if you take an action to put yourself out there. Most people are too concerned about their own lives and problems to give you and your endeavors a second thought.
So try being visible. Try to put yourself out there. Let people know about what you do and what services you offer. Tell them a great stroy. Entertain, educate, enjoy!
We each have something important to share with the world and we are not doing anyone any favors when we hide our light under a bushel. Put yourself out there today and experience how that feels. You just might like the results.
