Dear Silent Reader,

I don’t know where this message finds you, but I have a feeling I know how you feel.

You’re doing your best.
You’re showing up, day after day.
You’re putting in the work; posting that idea, refining that service, pushing that offer.

Without applause, without anyone really noticing.

And maybe, just maybe, you’ve wondered: “Does this even matter?”

I get it.
I’ve been there too.

When I started The InkHub, it wasn’t some grand unveiling.

It was quiet. Personal. Scary. It felt like planting a seed in dry soil and hoping it rains.

There were no guarantees. No virality. Just me— writing, testing, building.

But here’s what I learned in the stillness:
The people who keep showing up even when no one’s clapping are the ones who eventually shift everything.

Not because they had it all figured out.
Not because they had a massive following.
But because they were faithful with small beginnings.

They stayed when it was silent.
They improved when no one was watching.
They believed before anyone else did.

If you’re in that phase, the quiet, in-the-shadows, “does anyone even care?” phase

I want you to know this:

You are not invisible.
Your effort is not wasted.
And this part of your journey is not meaningless.

This is the becoming.
This is the rooting.
This is the foundation greatness is built on.

Keep building your thing.
Keep putting out your best work.
Keep whispering yes to the version of you that refuses to quit.

Even if no one sees it yet, you’re becoming someone unforgettable.

With all my heart,
Iyinoluwa Ayomide AKINBILE
Your favourite cheerleader
