For a long time I evaluated growth mainly through movement. More reach, instagram刷粉丝 more profile visits, more follows this week than last week. I do not think that is foolish exactly. Movement matters. The trouble is that movement can make you feel successful before the page is actually becoming stronger. A spike can be flattering without being useful. I had periods where the numbers looked more alive while the account itself felt harder to trust. That contradiction taught me to pay attention differently.
