- [EVERYONE IS NOT YOUR AUDIENCE](https://winniehart.com/2023/01/everyone-is-not-your-audience/) - If you measure the effectiveness of your audience-building process only on the number of new followers you attract, then it’s likely that you are spending a lot of time focused only on the size of your audience and not those that fit your “ideal” thought follower (your audience) profile.

Yet we can’t stop ourselves from comparing them and trying to find the differences that help us to tell them apart. By taking a closer look at twins, we can learn a great deal about the concept of differentiation.

- [BRIDGE YOUR GAP](https://winniehart.com/2023/01/bridge-your-gap/) - Effectively managing that gap begins with recognizing that reputation is a matter of perception. And this perception works in different ways - the wider the gap – the wider your perception of something is from the reality of what it actually is. This is true of every thought leader.

- [CREATE A PLAN](https://winniehart.com/2023/01/create-a-plan/) - Create a Plan: While formulating and adjusting a strategy is an ongoing requirement for standing out and taking off, it will be wasted effort without a plan that defines the steps and actions needed to accomplish your goals and to orchestrate their implementation.
