Stand For Something, Have A Clear Niche

The moment you start to hover across too many personas of your identity, the more you start to confuse your audience. In the end, you will be noticed with many things but remembered for nothing.

This is counter-productive as your intention should be for you to be known for something.

What is your niche? What area do you want to be known for? What topics do you want people to associate you with?

Of course you can be a generalist that is skilled in multiple areas but be very clear on your specialisation. That is your niche and your voice should be heard there.
