Besides taking generic advices from Internet gurus, We should start questioning them as well.
Giving advices online has definitely become a popular growth channel for many creators. In past couple of years I have seen so many of them that at this point, all of them kinda sounds similar.
Everyone is like hassle 14+/7, get X skill and sell Y, use this growth hacks ๐งต, Do this X amount of things to change your life....
Of course this isn't their fault! because I realized after porn, advice on "making money online" is probably the 2nd biggest reason why we use internet. ๐ถ
Now stuffs like these can be helpful sometimes, but the problem arises when they share their experiences/assumes as for facts! Which can be dangerous for us follower, Coz directly just applying those hacks will not make us smarter! In reality everyone has different situations and what worked for them may not work for us!
So what we need to is start being more thoughtful and decide for ourselves what advices to take and what not, where to make changes & indentify which is BS.
Now while I'm writing this blog, I realized I'm also kinda sounding like a "guru", Giving you advise to not to take advices! ๐ถ
Which is totally opposite of what I'm trying to say, In fact whatever I'm saying can be total BS as well. I'm just a guy ranting on the internet at 3am after seeing my timeline getting filled with generic advices.
So I guess what I mean is, Just because someone have some fame/got rich, Not everything they say are facts! You decide for yourself what makes sense and not.
