Let's stop the comparison

Happy Wednesday everyone, I hope you’ve had a lovely week so far!

For me it’s been a busy one but it’s my favourite day of the week and I’m excited to be writing this for you all??

Today we’re talking about one of my favourite July campaigns, checking in with yourself and mindset advice.

Let’s get started!!??

Earlier this month Jo Malone London announced the launch of a limited edition collection with Paddington Bear??

This brand new cologne is inspired by Paddington’s favourite treat, marmalade of course!

The creatives for this campaign are incredible, I love that they have told a story.

And with the new Paddington film coming out later this year the timing couldn’t be better ??

I love the campaign! What do you think?

I’m excited to welcome today's guest, meet Rachel Clayton . She is sharing her mindset advice!

‘Hi I’m Rachel from Studio Clayton and this is one piece of advice that has changed my mindset completely!

Working in social media, I’m constantly watching other businesses thrive and it can have you questioning and doubting yourself as you want to be where they are. Remember that even if you share the same job role, everyone is in their own lane. I shouldn’t be comparing my 1 year as a business owner to someone who is in their 5th!

Our unique experiences will always differentiate us from one another and no one can replicate or be you. Focus on yourself, get aligned with your goals and vision and remember, you are in your own lane! You will achieve everything you’ve wanted and more.’

This advice really resonates with me as a freelancer. With information being so easily available online it can feel difficult to not compare yourself to others. But we are all on our own unique journey and you just have to trust in your ability ??

Today's advice is to take a moment to check in with yourself! ??

Navigating your career as a young person can be tough, you see people doing incredibly well and those doubts start to creep up.

So take a moment for yourself. Think about how you’ve felt recently. Perhaps there’s a particular roadblock that keeps coming up or something you need help with.

Don’t forget to praise yourself too, for the small wins too!??

Today my post prompt is to share a fun fact that your network may not know about you.

Those informative, reactive posts are fantastic for letting your audience see who you really are!! Sharing some fun facts is a great way to do this and you may find some things in common with your audience ??

I look forward to reading these, please use #DiaryOfAYoungMarketer so I can come and show your post some support.

Have a lovely rest of the day??

Speak soon!

Love this newsletter!! Rachel Clayton 100% can resonate with you about comparing yourself to others that are further ahead. But everyone has their own uniqueness and your journey at one year is sooo different to someones 7th year journey. Love that ??
