Writing content here could seem like you're climbing a mountain every day with no downhill trek in sight. You could be doing the work and yet wondering "Is anyone really reading what I'm putting out there?"
Wonder no more. I have proof that your content matters and does impact others.
Three years ago, I heard from someone who told me just that.
October of 2019, I sent a "Congratulations!" DM to Phil Eisaman , as he started a new position. Yes, you should be doing this. I highly recommend reaching out to people you're connected to here on LinkedIn to celebrate milestones like birthdays and anniversaries with them.
Anyhow, when I sent that DM, he replied and said "To be honest, it had a little bit to do with what I learned from you on LinkedIn, so put a feather in your cap LOL"
Wait, what?! What I did here on LinkedIn influenced someone to change jobs???!!!
Phil told me that a series of posts I did here got him over the anxiety of not having a degree. It scared him when he went on interviews and he told me that with my videos he was able to be proud of it.

So Phil was able to get over his anxiety and go for that new job!
I started posting on LinkedIn about job searching on Halloween of 2018. I have posted about battles with anxiety too. I'm so grateful that Phil told me this and it really gave me that enccouragement that something I said/did made a difference.
Since that time I have heard from others who say that my content matters. I will continue to use this platform to make connections and make a difference.
Don't lose hope when you're posting content. Whether you get 100 impressions, 1,000 views, or none of the above. People are reading what you're putting out to the universe. Your words matter.
Have you told someone recently that their words matter? Have you heard from others how much your words have impacted others?
