That means it's a very big learning process, and with that comes a huge emotional roller coaster.
daily, weekly, sometimes hourly.
All of my jumps have involved vacillating wildly between feeling like, oh, maybe I'm going to be good at this, and then immediately feeling like, who the hell even gave me this job in the first place?
All of that is normal, and it doesn't actually mean that anything is wrong.
You have to learn to expect the roller coaster and ignore it at the same time.
The most valuable mantra for me in this phase has been, give it two weeks.
A lot of people will tell you to sleep on it.
I can tell you most of these emotions don't go away overnight.
Two weeks is a great barometer for things that you should actually pay attention to.
The third thing you have to get good at in order to get good at jumping off cliffs is becoming a professional idiot.
I can tell you that this is one of my greatest strengths.
I am comfortable sounding like a moron.
I am great at sitting in rooms with brilliant people asking very dumb questions.
But what that actually means is that I have become an extraordinary learner.
My favorite phrase is, sorry if this is a stupid question, but ...
When you ask it that way, everybody wants to make you feel better.
They're like, no, no, that's not a dumb question.
And then they would love to teach you what they know.
People love being teachers.
It makes them feel smart.
