Why it’s so naive to share the Medium earnings and stats?
I am not against sharing your beginner’s achievements. But I don’t recommend it to any new writer.
It shows you’re so naive. This naiveness attracts naive writers until they get the experience of their own. That means you’re not so getting reliable followers.
It shows you are happy with small earnings. And you’d (fallen and) got the ‘Messiah’ complex and feel like a guru and succumbed to the urge to teach all others with your tiny experience.
It shows you are not getting high with your actions — but with the (temporary) results.
The excitement is silly — like a child. It's not wrong to feel excited when you win (in the beginning). But don’t you see, it's the beginning? By this time, you have only seen the first up in the graph and have to see some downs to understand things better.
Showing off (unintentionally bragging) your first month's earnings shows that you’re in a money crunch. You’re inadvertently believing that the current earnings are directly proportional to the quality you offered.
There’s something called beginner’s luck. You misunderstood your beginner’s luck as a progress to success. There’s a lot to see down the path.
