This truly was a great webinar last night, so full of passion & the motivation we all needed. And dang it, @ph1102 almost won!! LOLOL (Congrats to the winners, though! :) )
The E for effort is a super important concept, especially for when content creators are starting out. The hardest step is getting started & any time I personally face something new, I know I definitely struggle with that. But once that step is taken, it gets easier as I go forward. :)
I do have to agree with Zoltan about the division that sometimes can occur with creators - ones who really put in that effort & create valuable content & then others that just want to take the easy route. It's hard to support people like that so it can be a blurred line at times. The more we support ones who are making a TRUE effort, their path will become brighter & it will be better for the community as a whole.
Thanks for the awesomeness, Jon! Keep protecting those Unicorns & I got your back on the Raptors ;)
I think generally, the CTP swarm does the best they can. And sometimes our creators aren't Pulitzer Prize winning authors...That's ok. We're here to encourage them and help them get better.
I'm always pumped to see someone get their wings and really take off. But it doesn't happen if we're tearing them down before they even leave the nest.
Thanks Jenn, appreciate the comments very much!
