ALL of this, please. I’ve spent the last 18 years watching these self-proclaimed gurus rip money out of people’s bank accounts while selling them warmed-over bullshit. Some have stolen right from my blog. Some just steal from wherever and repackage it to make it sound new (it’s not). And I’m tired beyond belief of the “You MUST” advice (as I call it). You MUST do X or you won’t ever get to Y.

Again, bullshit. Your business is yours to run. Advice should be taken (and given) with the understanding that if it doesn’t fit, that’s okay.

You are good enough to run your own business. If you need help, you’ll find it from someone who isn’t out there trying to sell you on their narrow ideas just so THEY can make money. No one writer has all the answers, and not all advice fits.

Thank you. I needed that. 🙂
