follow a crowd ever.</p><p>In fact usually whichever direction the crowd is going in, is usually an indicator to me to go in the opposite direction.</p><p><em>We&#8217;re cocky like that&#8230;</em></p><p>We believe in ourselves that much to understand that no matter what path we take, there we be success there because we are success. Even just thinking about all of the times I have strayed off my path, I still ended up right on track. Right on time. Exactly where I am meant to be. It&#8217;s like we can&#8217;t fail even if we tried because whatever we do, we succeed at and even when things don&#8217;t work out, we take away important lessons that help us grow. It&#8217;s  never a loss. </p><p>I think blueprints win effortlessly because it&#8217;s just in them honestly. That&#8217;s the beauty of a blueprint, they cannot be easily explained. They do not easily make sense to the average person and they are not supposed to. They are literally just living. Being.

Some will tell you. Some of them won&#8217;t. Some of them will watch you quietly, study you, and then copy you. It becomes very obvious over time. You&#8217;ll notice people waiting for you to make a move before they make a move in their own life.</p><p>They&#8217;re watching everything.</p><p>They won&#8217;t engage. No likes. No comments. No shares. Nothing.</p><p>But they&#8217;re watching.</p><p>And then you start noticing little things.</p><p>How many of you have experienced women getting around you and suddenly they start talking like you, dressing like you, moving like you? Copying your energy, your tone, your presence.</p><p>I&#8217;ve experienced this my whole life.</p><p>I remember I got a particular type of braids. She got the same. I bought an outfit. She bought the same outfit.</p><p>And what I&#8217;ve noticed about those types of people is this:</p><p><strong>They can only &#8220;be you&#8221; when they&#8217;re in close proximity to you.</strong></p><p>The moment you distance yourself, they lose it. It&#8217;s like they don&#8217;t know how to continue without access to your energy.</p><p>I&#8217;ve seen this in friendships, romantic situations, even platonic environments. People trying to take my entire essence and wear it like it&#8217;s theirs, because deep down, they&#8217;re in competition with me. Whether they admit it or not.</p><p>And let&#8217;s be real.</p><p>I am not easily duplicated. My essence is unique.</p><p>But people will still try to emulate it.</p><p>The way I speak. The way I carry myself. My mannerisms.</p><p>It&#8217;s funny because the very things I used to get bullied for&#8230; are now the exact things people try to replicate.</p><p>That&#8217;s how you know.</p><p>But here&#8217;s where it gets deeper.</p><p>When you turn that into a business?</p><p>Those same women don&#8217;t want to pay you.</p><p>Because paying you would mean admitting that you have something they don&#8217;t. And they don&#8217;t like that power dynamic.</p><p>So instead, they want access for free.</p><p>They want your advice, your insight, your skill &#8212; for free.</p><p>They don&#8217;t feel like you deserve the money.</p><p>Let&#8217;s be honest.</p><p>They don&#8217;t.</p><p>Because in their mind, &#8220;how dare you&#8221; position yourself as someone of value when they see you as someone they compare themselves to.</p><p>Do you know how many people I helped before I ever built House of Anu?</p><p>Daily.</p><p>Helping people with identity, purpose, direction &#8212; for free.</p><p>But the moment you introduce structure, pricing, boundaries&#8230;</p><p>Now there&#8217;s a problem.</p><p>Now people don&#8217;t want to &#8220;work with you.&#8221;</p><p>They just want to take.</p><p>And that&#8217;s what I had to realise.</p><p>When you&#8217;re the blueprint, you pass the point of relatability.</p><p>And instead of people admitting that you&#8217;re aspirational, they reject you.</p><p>Especially if you come from similar environments.</p><p>Because now your growth makes them uncomfortable.</p><p>So they&#8217;re definitely not going to invest in you.</p><p><strong>Now let&#8217;s talk about the men.</strong></p><p>This is where it gets even more uncomfortable.</p><p>I&#8217;ve worked in social media for years. Freelance social media manager. Creative direction. Behind the scenes and in front of the camera. I&#8217;ve done both.</p><p>So when I started wanting to work with men in the creative scene &#8212; because my brain literally thinks in pictures &#8212; I already knew what I could bring.</p><p>But the men?</p><p>They don&#8217;t approach you in business mode.</p><p>They approach you in attraction.</p><p>They think you&#8217;re talking to them because you&#8217;re interested in them.</p><p>They think there&#8217;s something personal there. Something sexual, eventually.</p><p>And then they realise&#8230;</p><p>Oh.</p><p>She&#8217;s serious.</p><p>She&#8217;s about her work. She&#8217;s about her money.</p><p>And now they feel uncomfortable.</p><p>Because they&#8217;re attracted to you, but you&#8217;re not there for that.</p><p>And instead of being able to separate it and work with you professionally, they back off completely.</p><p>Because in their mind:</p><p>&#8220;If I can&#8217;t have her, I don&#8217;t want to work with her.&#8221;</p><p><em>So where does that leave the extremely beautiful woman?</em></p><p><strong>It forces her to find her soul tribe.</strong></p><p><strong>People who don&#8217;t know her.</strong></p><p><em><strong>People who can genuinely say, &#8220;I&#8217;m inspired by you,&#8221; without ego getting in the way.</strong></em></p><p><strong>People who understand that value comes at a cost &#8212; and are willing to pay it.</strong></p><p><em>That&#8217;s what ends up happening.</em></p><p>And if you resonate with this, <strong>don&#8217;t let anyone tell you you&#8217;re doing too much. Don&#8217;t let anyone call you dramatic.</strong></p><p><em>A lot of the time, people say that because they simply cannot relate.</em></p><p>I&#8217;m going to say it.</p><p><strong>If you lived the life I&#8217;ve lived, if cameras followed me around 24/7, you would see it.</strong></p><p><em>You would see how women change around me.</em></p><p><em>You would see how men act around me.</em></p><p><strong>So no, I&#8217;m not going to let anyone gaslight me out of my own lived experience.</strong></p><p><em>My page isn&#8217;t for everyone.</em></p><p><em>And that&#8217;s okay.</em></p><p><em>If you don&#8217;t relate, scroll.</em></p><p><strong>But I can only speak from my perspective.</strong></p><p><strong>And this is for the women who understand that it has actually been harder to build something for yourself because of how people project onto you.</strong></p><p>Because when you start a business and post online, the algorithm doesn&#8217;t just show strangers.</p><p>It shows people in your circle.</p><p>And when your own people aren&#8217;t supporting you &#8212; because secretly, they don&#8217;t want to see you win &#8212;<strong> that does affect your growth.</strong></p><p>That&#8217;s real.</p><p>That&#8217;s psychological.</p><p><strong>That&#8217;s not something you&#8217;d understand unless you&#8217;ve lived it.</strong></p><p>But here&#8217;s the other side of it.</p><p>It makes you stronger.</p><p><strong>Because you&#8217;re navigating challenges the average person isn&#8217;t even aware of.</strong></p><p></p><p class="button-wrapper" data-attrs="{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;https://aimeanu.substack.com/p/when-youre-the-blueprint-they-will?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=email&utm_content=share&action=share&quot;,&quot;text&quot;:&quot;Share&quot;,&quot;action&quot;:null,&quot;class&quot;:null}" data-component-name="ButtonCreateButton"><a class="button primary" href="iframe.php?url=https%3A%2F%2Faimeanu.substack.com%2Fp%2Fwhen-youre-the-blueprint-they-will%3Futm_source%3Dsubstack%26utm_medium%3Demail%26utm_content%3Dshare%26action%3Dshare"><span>Share</span></a></p><p>And I want to end this by saying: show love to the people who inspire you.</p><p>Tell them.</p><p>You have no idea how deeply your words might reach someone who has spent so much time pouring into everyone else.</p><p>We all struggle. Even the people whose lives look glamorous from the outside. Even the people who inspire you. Even the people who appear confident, successful, beautiful, talented or completely sure of themselves.</p><p><strong>Tell people the impact they&#8217;ve had on you while they&#8217;re here to hear it.</strong></p><p>And maybe you don&#8217;t have the money to financially support every creator, artist, writer or person who has genuinely added value to your life. I don&#8217;t either.</p><p>But there are so many forms of support that cost absolutely nothing.</p><p>Restack their work. Like it. Comment. Share it. Recommend them. Tell somebody else about them.</p><p>Do something that might have absolutely no benefit to you, but could have a huge benefit to them.</p><p><strong>To me, that is genuine support.</strong></p><p>Sometimes the internet creates such intimacy that we forget the person helping us through their work is also running a business. Their words may feel like friendship. Their videos may feel like company. Their advice may genuinely help you get your life together.</p><p>But someone still had to create all of that value.</p><p>I think about life energetically. I like the scales to feel balanced. If somebody pours into me, I want to pour something back&#8212;even when they never asked me to.</p><p>It doesn&#8217;t always have to be money.</p><p>Sometimes it&#8217;s attention. Sometimes it&#8217;s encouragement. Sometimes it&#8217;s amplification. Sometimes it&#8217;s simply making sure someone knows their work mattered.</p><p>I try to live like that myself.
