There are two steps:
- Get to know the market rates
- Get to do the hard work of differentiating yourself, like Seth tells us here.
Notice I wrote two steps and not two ways.
Because when you are starting out, the only way to go to the top is begin where everyone else is – by understanding the market rate.
That is not a problem. Everyone begins at zero before they get to become their very own hero.
The problem is you trying to “quote your dream figure on your vision board” or not researching at all.
I am a huge believer of getting what you want and going beyond the norm. However, when you are starting out, you gotta do the work to get the number you deserve, and nothing else.
To go to the top, start at the bottom. But just start, my friend.
