On Dealing With Name-Drops, FOMO, and The Black Hole Of Social Media Scrolling [Ep. #120]
In this episode of The Profitable Practice Podcast, I talk about my recent experience with name-droppers, how I will handle it in the future, and not allowing yourself to get distracted from your own work.
Do you know so-and-so?
There is no shortage of people building great things in our industry. I’m amazed every day at what others create and discover in order to help folks improve their health.
The thing is, if you are going to be one of them, you CANNOT be peeking over the fence every time someone somewhere shares their work.
Name dropping is totally human. I get it, and I do it too. It’s often not so much that we are trying to seem “connected” but more about how we try to engage folks in discussion about whatever topic is on the table. That said, when you don’t know the name referred to – well it can leave you feeling irritated and judged as being out-of-the-loop.
The way I see it, if you don’t know so-and-so… that can be a signal that you ARE on the right track to BEING the name someone is dropping next… tune in to find out how.
“Of course I don’t know who all those influencers are; I spend next to no time scrolling on social media because I’m too busy building a multi six-figure BUSINESS bitches!”
