Anxiety/Stress/Perfectionism: Sharing this because it's very common...
There was a post earlier in the other group about anxiety with posting designs, SEO, shop layout, etc. and I wanted to shared my response to let everyone know that this is very common and to help anyone that may feel imposter syndrome in anyway and know you're not alone... So in response to feeling like you have imposter syndrome, or your shop layout doesn't look perfect or your designs aren't looking like what you want or like others: When I decided to make tumbler wraps designs, there were several large design shops with over 100K sales and 5K+ reviews and they were graphic designers (like real ones who used PS, Illustrator, and Procreate), I know this because I joined all the FB groups and was doing as much research as possible to see what made them successful...because here I was, just utilizing commercial use graphics and attempting to draw in Procreate (that ended quickly). I created SO many designs, that I NEVER posted because I thought they weren't good enough, didn't look like theirs's, and I just felt like an imposter in their SPACE. After like my 100th YT video, I was just like, you know what, whatever, I need to post them to see what works and what doesn't and I did and I started getting sales on the most random designs (and in my opinion) the most ugly designs. But it was because they weren't like everyone else's....they were unique in their own way, because they were different from the 'professionals' . So it's ok to be NOT be perfect or be different than the rest. My early designs were NOT 300 DPI, some were not size correctly, I had typos on a few (this still happens today) etc. But the more I posted, the better I got and the more that sales happened and the more my confidence grew and I just kept posting, practicing, posting practicing and within that first year, I topped every original 'tumbler designer' on Etsy in both sales and reviews. (not a flex, just facts :). All this to say, don't let perfectionism stop you from posting, you'll always be continuing to learn and that's a good thing. :)

I feel this to my core. Thanks for sharing. Sometimes it’s easy to feel like you’re alone in all this.
