It happens all the time,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"960\" height=\"960\"src=\"https:\/\/sotnews.agency\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-939.png\" alt=\"Don\u2019t measure your success with likes and comments \u2013 Kobby Kyei to content creators\" class=\"wp-image-10032871409\" title=\"Don\u2019t measure your success with likes and comments \u2013 Kobby Kyei to content creators\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sotnews.agency\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-939.png 960w, https:\/\/www.myjoyonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-939-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.myjoyonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-939-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.myjoyonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-939-768x768.png 768w, https:\/\/www.myjoyonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-939-140x140.png 140w, https:\/\/www.myjoyonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-939-125x125.png 125w, https:\/\/www.myjoyonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-939-250x250.png 250w, https:\/\/www.myjoyonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-939-424x424.png 424w, https:\/\/www.myjoyonline.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/10\/image-939-50x50.png 50w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\"><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cHence, if I post about a donation I\u2019ve done and I\u2019m waiting for your comment to validate my work, then I won\u2019t move forward,\u201d he continued.<\/p>\n<p>He therefore encouraged creators to look at deeper analytics instead.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe insights tell you more. A post might show only a few likes, but it could have reached 20,000 or 50,000 people. Why should likes and comments be the yardstick for my success journey?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>According to him, many young bloggers become discouraged when they don\u2019t get immediate engagement, arguing that it is the wrong mindset.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe world is watching you. Don\u2019t let your environment hold you back. Coming from a poor background doesn\u2019t mean your back is on the ground. In this digital era, people from the US, Indonesia, and all over the world could be following you without your knowledge,\u201d he emphasised.<\/p>\n<p>For Kobby Kyei, success is about consistency, impact, and global reach, not just online reactions.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n        <div class=\"booster-block booster-reactions-block\">\n            <div class=\"twp-reactions-icons\">\n                \n
