I find myself almost self-sabotaging so many times. Recently, I came across a guy who was teaching about T-shirts, and he was very good—so good that it inspired me to be a better teacher. There were things he was teaching that I’d never done with my brand, and I realized I wanted to implement them in one of my other brands. I decided I was going to pay him to learn those techniques.
Let me get back to it. I’ve been going hard, always trying to get better. One morning, I woke up with this idea to do 30 days of teaching. The mistake I almost made? I wanted to stop creating content to prepare for this teaching series. I had to stop and ask myself, “What are you thinking, Henry? Continue doing what you’re doing—taking small, consistent steps and being faithful. Just add this to the mix. You can do both.”
Instead of stopping, I went down to the conference room, pulled out my whiteboard, and got to writing out 30 days of teaching. Honestly, I think I could make it almost 60 days. The goal is to get better at explaining things in simple terms. To take complex ideas and break them down, you need practice—you need to become a better communicator. And while striving to improve is honorable, it doesn’t mean I have to stop. It doesn’t mean I have to kill the momentum I’ve been building.
I just had to learn how to add to what I was already doing. Whatever you’re working on, stay consistent. Small, consistent steps win in the end because those steps never stop. They always improve over time. I wanted to be transparent about my thought process during this period and what I’ve been going through.
One more thing: for some reason, I was averaging over 600 views on TikTok, and suddenly, it dropped to about 250. I have no idea why the algorithm stopped pushing my content out—I’m still teaching the same things. That dip made me want to slow down and figure it out. But I don’t think that’s the answer. I think the answer is to stay consistent while I figure it out.
So that’s what I’m saying: keep doing what you’re doing, and find ways to improve as you go. On this journey of entrepreneurship, you’ve got this.
