It takes courage to leap out into the unknown and do something you've never done before. No one ever truly understands how to build a business when they make the commitment that they're going to build one. It's a leap of faith, and that probably is a complete understatement, to be honest. To make that shift from being a consumer of content to publisher is challenging. Sharing your creations with the world, it's scary. Jumping into the deep end of the pool when you don't know how to swim. It takes courage. It's a vulnerable state where people can judge you, and I had no clue if it was going to work. It took courage to sit there on that red leather couch in a Hollywood Airbnb to make my first video.

With the 90 day challenge that I've taught so many times on YouTube and on my blog. These were the seeds I had to plant in order to grow the audience and the trust that would eventually become a business. And you never know when you plant a seed, if it's actually going to work. There's a lot of trust in the process that's required. It takes courage.
