one of the biggest mistakes you can make as a writer or content creator is seeing a big name, someone you look up to, join a bounty and then deciding not to participate because they are also involved. wo anu e o semi 😂 (ask your yoruba friend to interpret that for you.) that person joined the bounty to make money for themselves oo and probably grow their name even more. so why are you the one backing out because they joined? few things you need to understand; • there is room for everyone. just because a big creator joined doesn’t mean you can’t earn from the same opportunity. • you can’t grow if you keep running away from competition. if you always back out whenever you see someone bigger than you, how do you expect to get better? • they were once upcoming too. nobody started at the top oo. the people you admire today also had to put themselves out there before they became who they are. • learn from them instead of being scared of them. look at how they write, how they present their ideas, and how they engage with the project. take what you can learn and improve your own work. • not every bounty will be a win, and that’s okay. even when you don’t win, you gain experience, improve your writing, and learn what to do better next time. of course, always check if the bounty is worth your time and effort. don’t join blindly, but don’t let someone’s popularity be the only reason you stay away either. you won’t know what you can achieve until you give yourself a chance. go out there, do your thing, and build your own name too. 🫰🏽💜
