The Power of a Little Thumb

It was inevitable. After a year of having A Jock’s Guide online and almost 10,000 channel hits later….I got my first thumbs down. Yup. It happened.   That annoying, manipulative little icon with the digit pointing downwards.

And instantly, it felt like I just got uninvited to my best friend’s birthday party. Who could thumb down me? Why? Do they not know I’m trying my hardest?

And then…. something wonderful happened!

I started to edit my next video…. and the sting sort of disappeared. I forgot all about it… because I was back to doing what I love, and that’s really why I do this.

Thumbs up to that!
