A short one to close the month. I've spent July writing about positioning, focus, and what it takes to turn what you know into a business that wins clients. So here's the question I'd actually like you to answer: What did you have to unlearn when you went out on your own? The habits that made you great inside an organization — trusting the work to find you, staying modest about your wins, letting the company's brand do the talking — are often the exact habits that stall an independent practice. I'll go first: I had to unlearn building quietly. For years my work spoke through companies and products. On my own, invisible good work is just invisible. Your turn. What did you have to unlearn — or what are you still unlearning? I'll read and reply to every answer. #IndependentConsultant #Coaching #GoingIndependent #PersonalBrand
