Now, there are people out there who actually love promoting themselves, and God bless them. Most of us come from this small, shy place about blowing our own horn. That's why I almost always find myself givingrepparttar people I speak to permission to go big. Here's how that part goes:

ME: So what's holding you back from doing this work? THEM: I don't have a website! I don't have anything! I feel like a rank beginner. ME: That's why there's a course like this. So you don't have to create this thing alone in a dark corner. THEM: But can I really do it? I mean, you think I'd be able to? ME: Sure! Why not? THEM: Wow ... really?
