I often say to my friends:

The prerequisite for making it big… is to first step out.

It sounds a bit like a joke, but for friends in self-media, especially those still struggling in the 0-to-1 phase, this phrase is worth pondering.

Having mentored so many students, I’ve noticed a common issue most face at the start: an urgent need for positive feedback.

Post a few articles, get no likes, and they feel like a failure;

Persist for a month with little traffic, and they wonder if they should switch tracks.

Not to mention, when they see peers hit it big with a viral post, gaining tens of thousands of followers and earning big bucks, the mix of envy, excitement, and frustration is real.
