How Many Pairs of Shoes Do You Own? 

I don’t know about you, but I used to have dozens of pairs of shoes in my closet. Now, I was no Imelda Marcos, but I’m still too embarrassed to tell you the real number!

As I’ve gotten older, my shoe collection has dwindled down to my tried and true favorites. They’re comfortable, stylish, and timeless. 

Just like when I started out in online marketing, I tried out a lot of new things. 

Adsense, Adwords, blogging, email marketing, SEO, CPC, PPC, and several other acronyms. The list goes on.

Many of them didn’t fit me right or make me feel good, just like the shoes I was hoarding.

Over time, I’ve edited my online interests down to what I enjoy and what I’m good at.

I took some time to figure out what I really loved doing … and which shoes I really loved wearing. 😉

You don’t have to have everything figured out when you start … or even when you’re well into your career.

However, when you do try something new, stay the course and avoid distractions, or you will never see any progress.

But you must also know when what you’re doing no longer serves you. It’s a fine line we can talk more about, if you’d like.

Sometimes you have to try on a few pairs of shoes – or careers – before you find something that really resonates with you and your values.
