Become known well
[Reading Time: 2 minutes]
[Vibing Time: ∞]
We spend our childhood figuring out how to fit in.
We spend the rest of our lives figuring out how to stand out.
In efforts to conform, we are left empty, confused and lacking identity. We trade our true selves for comfort.
The answer is to optimize for being known well instead of being well known.
What’s the difference between well-known and known well?
Well-Known: Many people know of you
Known well: People know who you are (interest, desires, fears, traits)
Well-known: “aren’t you that guy from _____”,
Known well: “I saw this and thought of you.. I know you’d love it”
Well-known is surface, known well is depth.
Being known-well is 10x better than being well known.
Known-well brings you opportunities, new ideas, funny videos, new connections, friends, places to visit, food to eat. Things and people you want in your life will gravitate to you.
It’s a life cheat code. Share your interests openly. The right people will take notice and come into your orbit.
How to become known-well:
Get cozy being uncomfortable. You can’t be know if you don’t put yourself out there.
Share your ideas with family and friends. The more you share, the more known you’ll be.
Publish your thoughts. Write, vlog, podcast - interests to attract your people.
The results: Others will know you. You will know yourself.
