why do you do the things you do?

hey, mau here

i feel like i haven’t done anything productive today lol.

i just spent like an hour cleaning my follower list…

why?

my engagement substantially dropped the last few days, and i know that it has to be from that viral post.

the algorithm got all confused on who my audience is – and it started sending my content to a bunch of random dudes in different countries lol.

probably gonna take a few weeks for it to recalibrate again.

oh well.

just one of those things I guesssssss….

lesson learned -

not all viral content is good content, especially when trying to build a brand based on resonance.

and one of the things this made me realize is how hard it is to actually build in public.

not only are you battling the perceptions of others, but you’re battling the perception of your own mind.

it’s easy to be constantly second-guessing yourself –

“should i post this? what will people think? is this too much? should i delete this? am i being authentic? is this just my ego?”

lol, yep.

but here’s what i realized –

unless you have a crystal clear WHY, it’s so easy to get lost in what you’re doing.

your WHY is like a FILTER for everything you do.

when you have clarity on your WHY, WHAT you do and HOW you decide to do it becomes that much more clear.

because if something isn’t aligned with your WHY –

then you instantly know it’s not the right thing to do.

and this type of clarity?

makes moving through life that much easier.

bc you’re no longer as influenced by other people’s opinions and beliefs.

you know your own.

but here’s the thing –

a “brand” can tell people what their "why" is all day long –

but the only way people actually believe it is by seeing WHAT they do.

and yes, this applies to you too – because whether you know it or not – you ALREADY have a “personal brand”.

your actions are the proof of your why.

just like the saying –

actions speak louder than words.

it doesn’t just apply to relationships, but to anything you want to do in life.

think about it –

your why is the foundation.

your actions are the proof.

and consistency builds the trust.

and when all three align?

that’s when people start to follow you (literally and figuratively).

so here’s a question for you –

why do YOU do the things you do?

what is YOUR why?

i’m genuinely curious – respond and lmk :)

much love

mau

ps. and if you’re not completely sure…

there’s still a few spots left for Step Into Flow – where we spend an entire week combining your human design, gene keys, numerology, and personality type to uncover WHY you were put on this earth and how to use that to actually design your life from the inside out.

because once you get clarity on this?

the life you were made for literally starts to unfold before your eyes.

look:

once Lauren got clear on who she wanted to be (and why) – she attracted aligned opportunities in less than 1 week.

if you want the details, just reply ‘porque’ and i’ll send them over (that’s why in spanish lol)

peace!
