Today I learned...

Yesterday I learned a hard but valuable lesson.
I tried to help someone on Reddit who was ranting about how ADHD was wrecking a part of their life. I shared part of my Rant Analyzer report, something I thought would genuinely help, but people shot it down as “generalized.” I tried to explain that it was just the summary section and the full report, which I offered to send via DM was very personalized, but it just made things worse. Eventually, I deleted it.

That moment stung, but it showed me something deeper.
I wasn’t just trying to help; I was still trying to sell. I was thinking about getting my framework out there, proving its value, being seen as credible. My “value” had a quiet, no, loud what’s-in-it-for-me baked in.

Then I remembered what Alex Hormozi said about obscurity in this video of his I was watching:

“If you're under $1 million in revenue, basically everyone on Earth doesn’t know you exist. The first four hours of every day should be dedicated to solving that problem — going from obscurity to being known.”

He wasn’t saying don’t sell forever; he was saying don’t skip the stage where people get to know and trust you.

I realized I’ve been focused on visibility through products instead of connection through presence.
So right now, I’m not here to sell PGQ.
I’m here to help, to listen, to earn awareness and trust, one honest post at a time.

Why Selling too Early Can Keep You Invisible

Most people start by selling. Hormozi taught me that when you’re unknown, your real job isn’t selling, it’s earning recognition and trust.
