Read on Twitter
When you help as many people grow on Twitter as I have, you learn exactly what is holding many of them back:

They want to take shortcuts.
Lots of people ask me for 'the fastest way' instead of 'the best way.'
With this mindset you'll never find the best way!
The fastest way will ruin your account, forget it.
You want more eyes on your work, not just extra on your follower count!

They don't want to invest, and want everything for free.
For example, your branding is important. If you have no design skills yourself, you either need to learn them or contact a designer.
Trying to get everything for free can appear very needy, you will be avoided.

They ask for too much when asking for help.
Some people don't understand what they're asking of people.
I've had people ask me to set them up an entire side hustle and then mentor their day by day running of it, they wanted all of this for free.
That's just one example!

They don't ask for enough help.
Sometimes this can be because they lack confidence or they think they are bothering people.
Do not be afraid to reach out to people, many will offer you help.
If they don't reply, who cares?
Nothing to lose.

Too many need fast results.
Getting results isn't good enough for some, some need them fast.
Many accounts are doing relatively well for their size but are demotivated by what they perceive as slow results.
Twitter growth is seldom a fast process, no need to quit.

Lack of initiative.
Many people just want to follow a process, they've no interest in learning how it works or coming up with their own process.
If you follow someone else's process you need to be ready to adjust to change if you want to keep moving, so understand it.

Many have a superiority complex.
I've had people with 600 followers not want to network with people who have 300 followers because they arn't big enough.
They also refuse to follow smaller creators when they do network.
That attitude will get you nowhere in this community!

Many have an inferiority complex.
They see large numbers on the follower count and think that person is better than them.
If some smaller accounts spoke to others the way they speak to me, they'd get walked all over.
You are equal to all here, understand that!

They take more than they give.
Many find themselves in a strong network and they start taking a lot from it without giving anything back.
That eventually catches up with them.

Some are overwhelmed by a relatively small amount of work.
I've known this to happen from suggesting as little as ten minutes of recurring daily work.
If you want to grow, you're going to need more time on your hands than that!

Lack of self-belief.
Some people think their awesome work is terrible because it has no engagement.
If your following is low, getting engagement is hard, no matter how good your work is.
Be open to change, but always believe in yourself.

Many are unwilling to help others.
Lots of my growth and engagement simply comes from those I help, they become loyal followers.
I am always humble and helpful no matter who reaches out to me, and they remember that.
I do this without lowering my boundaries.

Too many people copy.
There's a lot of material out there, some of it is bound to be similar to yours.
But if you're not copying, at least some of your work will be original.
Try and have at least some original content.

They get offended too easy.
We are all from different cultures and English is not the first language of everyone here.
People are falling out, embarrassing themselves by overreacting and alienating themselves from their network.
All over a simple misinterpretation of intent.

They judge others.
People are being held back by assuming everyone that's doing better than them are cheating in some way, and they then treat that person accordingly.
It also gets it into their mindset that unless they cheat it can't be done, and that is far from the truth.

They compare themselves to others.
People often mention how others are doing compared to them when doubting themselves.
They then become bitter at people who overtake them.
I'm still networking with people who overtook me, they're an inspiration, not a threat.

They name drop.
If I've only just started networking with you and you name drop other people, I'll then be careful what infomation I share with you.
Don't stir shit.

They expect too much.
I can give people lots of good advice, but sometimes when my advice involves them taking action or thinking for themselves they can get offended as though I'm trying to get rid of them, when I'm actually still happy to help.
People won't do it for you!

Some people grow relatively well but then they hit a slow patch later on.
This is because many lose their humility as they grow and start being blunt to people and stop helping them.
You need consistency of charactor!

Don't worry if you recognise any of these traits in yourself, recognising them in yourself is a great thing and the first step to improving.
Everyone makes mistakes on their growth journey, but it's those that keep going that make it.
Build a network and grow!
