If I stay?

If I stay?

Asake once said "na the love wey i see nai wey give me liver" and truer words have never being spoken.

when I started content writing, I had major inferior complex and felt like everything I wrote was straight-up hot trash. Incase you don't know what an inferior complex is, an Inferior complex is an emotional state characterized by feelings of inadequacy, insecurity, and low self-esteem. It can be caused by a variety of factors, including past experiences, negative self-talk, and exposure to criticism or judgment. People with an inferior complex often feel inferior to others and may have difficulty believing in themselves or their abilities. Basically it means "you no rate yourself"

Starting a career in content writing can be an intimidating prospect for many people, especially those who are just starting out. It is important to remember that everyone has to start somewhere. Everyone has to learn the basics of content writing and develop their own style. It is natural to feel insecure or overwhelmed when starting something new, and it takes time to build up confidence and develop your craft. It is important to take the time to do research, practice, and learn from your mistakes.


One way to help combat an inferiority complex when starting a content writing career is to focus on your own strengths. Rather than focusing on what other people are doing or how they are doing it, focus on what you can do and how you can improve. Find resources that help you to develop your skills, such as books and courses, and read and watch content from industry experts.

My growth stems from the people around me who gave me the chance to prove myself, pushed me to be better at what I do with words of encourage, which gave me the push to go the extra mile. This might not be the same for all, but my people, friends, and family gave me "Liver".

I know on linkedln it looks like everybody on here is a professional guru in their line of work, but trust me, it's mostly all glitters. If you come on here, you are bound to be intimated, just focus on your strength, put in the work, trust the process and I promise you that you will attract the right crowd.


As for me, na me be "that girl wey dey go foreign" #content
