So true. I received a bit of brilliant advice from an entrepreneur friend. It was early 2020, and I had just started a blog that reviewed business books for post-graduates. The blog was awful! Every day I felt the sinking feeling of failure. Imposter syndrome crushed me, and I finally understood what Einstein was talking about when he called himself an “involuntary swindler.”

Here’s what he told me:

“You’re new to writing, so write online for six months and find out if you like writing book reviews. You might pivot, or you might find a new interest entirely, but give it a real go.”

100% the truth.

You need to give something a real college try before deciding whether you like it or not.
