Build the reputation you want.

Reputation comes from consistent action. What you do regularly shapes how people see you.

My mother-in-law asks for tech help because she knows I tinker with computers and phones.

On the internet, people ask me how to explain ideas visually because I’ve consistently shared that type of work and got results.

Whether we realize it or not, we’re all building a reputation.

Align your actions with the reputation you want—and use the internet to scale it.
