Your digital footprint shows where you clicked. Your real footprint shows where you stood. Make sure they don’t tell different stories.

It is easy to build a loud record of what you care about without ever standing anywhere. Resharing takes a second and leaves a trail that looks like conviction.

Take something you have posted strongly about and do the smallest offline version of it this week. Show up somewhere, say it to an actual person, give an hour. One of those counts more than a month of reposts.
