Hey friends,
When I first started posting on LinkedIn it took me about 53 posts before I saw any real traction.
Back then, I assumed that if a post didn’t get likes or comments, it meant my effort was wasted.
But over time, I learned something important: silence doesn’t mean no one’s listening.
Because even when you don’t see the likes or comments, people are noticing.
They’re reading your posts on their lunch break, nodding quietly, and most importantly remembering your name.
I know it’s easy to assume that getting only a few likes on your LinkedIn post means the time you spent on that post was wasted…
But it’s not.
Behind the scenes, people are watching.
Recruiters are scrolling through their feeds.
Hiring managers are quietly clicking on profiles.
Peers are noticing your name show up again and again.
And that visibility quietly builds momentum.
A post you made weeks ago might be the reason someone messages you next month with an opportunity you never saw coming.
Plus, the more you post, the more comfortable you get.
Your writing improves, your confidence grows, and the engagement naturally follows.
People start recognizing your name more and more, commenting back, sharing your ideas…
And that’s when things really start to shift.
All those small, consistent steps are what lead to that so-called “overnight success.”
So if you’re feeling demotivated because it seems like no one’s seeing your posts on LinkedIn, remember this:
Silence doesn’t mean your effort is wasted.
And the more you show up, the more you’ll keep stacking these little victories.
Which over a big enough timeframe, will inevitably lead to a massive one that will change your life forever.
