On oranges, apples, and pens
???? ??????????????, ????????????, ?????? ???????? ~
and a vital lesson on freelancing...
—
Some things may not make complete sense today, but they will, moving forward.
And there's a lesson we can take from some fruits and a few G-Tec pens.
????????'?? ?????? ?????????? ??????.
When you're trying to freelance,
and you're following the Zero to CEO Roadmap,
once you've taken the minimum steps for a lesson...
rather than linger on a module
to try to make things perfect right away—
wherever you are in you're freelancing journey—
it's still better to choose to move forward.
???????
Because for one thing...
when you have finally moved forward
to the next module,
you'll see you're still going to revisit, for instance,
your previous offer roadmap—
the one you've tried to make initially—anyway.
?????? ????????'?? ???????? ???? ?????? ??????????????.
Drafting something.
Moving forward.
Then going back for tweaking and feedback.
The roadmap creators designed it that way.
?????? ?????????????????????
When you move forward and THEN go back?
There are fresher insights ahead.
Newer perspectives.
Contrasting angles.
All these make the "going back" make sense.
????'?? ???????? ????????.
When you were first learning math, you did ?????? start with calculus.
You began with counting things.
When you counted oranges and pens and apples as a kid,
you didn't think about why numbers existed in the first place.
Or the logic behind them.
Or maybe you did, but it didn't matter that much.
You were attracted to the oranges and the apples and the pens.
?????? ???????? ?????? ?????????????? ???????????????? ??????????, ?????? ?????????? ????.
YOU.
MOVED.
ON.
And as you moved forward,
you discovered that when you counted things together,
you were essentially just adding them up.
One by one.
You didn't get that at first, sure.
And that's the whole point.
?????? ??????'?? ?????? ???????????? ?????????? ????????, ????????????.
Unless you were born a genius.
But even geniuses—at least some of them—
some of them were recognized for their genius
ONLY after a misconception of their true capacity.
Think Albert Einstein.
Who was thought to be dumb.
Stupid—in the earliest years of his life.

from always thinking outside the box
and as a result, giving birth to modern physics ideas
that perhaps no one else would have thought possible.
Or imaginable.
That also happens when you're trying to freelance.
You won't get some things right away.
?????? ?????? ?????????? ???????? ?????? ?????????????? ??????????.
You still check off those tick boxes.
And when that feeling of uncertainly haunts you again—
that feeling of anxiety creeping within you
because you just don't think you've crafted your offer right—
When that awful, disturbing feeling comes to you again...
?????????? ???? ?????????????? ?????? ???????????? ?????? ????????.
1 orange + 1 apple + 2 pens + 2 apples + 1 orange = 7 things.
Ahh ~ yes, but of course, they're different kinds of things!
(???? ???????? ?????? ??????????, "???????? ????????????????" ??????)
And yet in your Stage 1—your "kiddo" stage—
it won't matter.
??????'???? ?????????????? ??, ?????? ????????'?? ????????????.
For this grade level.
And when you move forward to the next stage,
you begin to group items.
7 things become
3 groups of 3 different objects.
1 orange + 1 apple + 2 pens + 2 apples + 1 orange = 7 things, still—
but they're also now equal to
2 oranges + 3 apples + 2 pens.
3 groups.
3 categories of stuff.
Simpler expression.
Tweaked presentation.
?????? ?????? ?????? ???? ?? ?????? ?????????? ???? ?????????? ???????????? ?????????? ?????????
Most likely not.
Maybe you stuttered.
Maybe all that mattered to you was just to say the word "three" correctly.
And not say it "tree" or "twee."
Or maybe all that you knew—
just to survive the ordeal of having to learn to count—
was to memorize the sequence of numbers. ??
?????? ?????? ???????????? ?????? ?????????? ???????? ??????????????????.
And the tweaking?
The optimizing?
The polishing?
The "perfecting"?
It only came
when there was ??????????????????
you could already tweak.
