Quick PSA: If you get value out of this thread, please be a good Internet citizen and hit that RT button ☝

Now that's outta the way

Let's get started with Tip # 1...

1) Understand WHY

Doing market research is like digging for gold aka that BIG idea that guarantees people will buy from you.

This gold tells us:
> What people think
> How people feel
> What problems they have
> WHAT THEY WILL BUY

If we can answer these questions...

then we will know EXACTLY

> What to build
> Which words we use to persuade them to buy

BEFORE we spend a single minute of our precious time and effort

Building a product
Creating a service offer
Writing a book

Market research = Having our own treasure map to the gold

2) Join their communities

First step to learning more about your customer is to hang out where they hang out.

-Study their lingo
-Identify their problems
-Hear their stories
-Take part in discussions
-Give FREE value
-OBSERVE

7 movies every man must watch

//Thread//

1) Gattaca

A man cannot truly be a man if he doesn't believe in himself to the point of delusion....

even if that means fighting his own genetic limitations.

This movie seeks to answer the question "you limited by logic or are you powered by God?"

2) Rocky III

Contrary to popular belief, the hardest test for a man isn't how he reacts when he's at rock bottom.

It's how he reacts to his first success.

As Mickey told Rocky "the worst thing happened to you that could happen to any fighter... you got civilized"

3) A Bronx tale

"Rich Dad, Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki in the context of growing up as an Italian American kid in the Bronx.

This movie will teach you how to be a man and how to pick your ideal wife (seriously).

4) Predator

Group of the chaddest and baddest cigar smoking gym bros are sent to the jungle with a ton of guns, ammunition and explosives to fight an indestructible alien specie.

Today is my 36th birthday.

To celebrate

Here are 36 hard hitting truths about the world I've learned in my 36 years of living.

Warning: A lot of these are harsh and uncomfortable. Do not read if you are sensitive.

This took awhile to compile.

If you want to wish me a happy birthday, please RT that first tweet above. It helps.

Thank you and let's get started.

1. You don’t go from A to B in a straight line. You go from A to B in a zig zag.

2. The smartphone took away your need to memorize information and replaced it with an inability to focus.

3. Everyone in their 20s thinks they know everything until they hit 30 and realise they really don’t know anything

18 PAINFUL TRUTHS EVERY 18 YEAR OLD NEEDS TO KNOW

When you're 18 you're free to live life however you want.

But the plan you've likely been given is a plan to keep you trapped in hell.

Read this *thread* to learn from my mistakes (I'm twice your age)

//THREAD//

👇👇👇

1) College is not mandatory

I know everyone around you makes it seem like it's mandatory but it's not.

Especially if your #1 goal is to make money.

Even if you STILL want to go to college..

Take a year off to work or travel

Get some LIFE EXPERIENCE

then go to college.

2) World travel is the best education you never had

When I was a kid I had no idea you could possible to travel the world long term.

I thought my path was College ▶9-5▶5 years on the job▶2 week vacation▶Retirement at 65

Reading the 4-hour workweek changed that path for me

3) Lifting is mandatory

You are at your PEAK Energetically.

Use that energy to get into the best shape of your life and the rest of your life will be FAR EASIER.

Everyone respects a physically strong man. No one respects a physically weak man.

No debating this one. Go lift.

4) Don't listen to your parents

Only exception is unless your dad is a self-made millionaire.

If your parents give you conventional advice like go to college, get a job, get married etc, IGNORE.

It's not their fault they've been brainwashed.

Love them but ignore their advice.

I have nothing to sell you in this thread.

No sneaky links. Nada.

All I ask is for you to hit the 🔁 button on the first tweet.

Thanks. Let's start!

1) Steal attention with a strong Headline

A reader's decision to read the body copy lives or dies on the strength of your headline.

Your goal is to make the reader curious enough to read the first few sentences.

If you got the reader to sentence number two or three, congrats.

2) Hook 'em or lose 'em

The headline tickles the reader's curiosity but the hook is what gets them invested into the key message of your piece.

Like the opening scene of a suspense movie, the hook should pull the reader in.

At this point you should have their full attention.

3) Guide them down a slippery slope

Good writing should read as if you're sliding down a slippery slope.

Noticed I said guide... NOT push.

You're taking the reader on a journey from A to B and it should feel effortless and have a natural flow from one sentence to the next.

20 lies that the world feeds us everyday

A thread...

Lie 1:
If you don't settle in your 20s, you are gone!
This is the decade.
You don't get another chance.
Study fast, get a job, get married, kids, that car, that house.
Quickly!
Time's running.
Look at everyone else doing it!

Lie 2:
People who are poor are lazy.
People who are rich are hardworking.
It is your fault if you haven't made it in life.
Look at everyone else who made it.
There is nothing granted or gifted in life.

Lie 3:
Those in corporate jobs, are unambitious.
They have sold their soul.
They are addicted to the salaries.
They could have done so much more with their life.
But they decided to spend it working for someone else.

Lie 4:
Starting your own business is the surest way of making money.
You can never get rich earning a salary.
You can never get rich working for someone else.

🤔 Reflect on thoughts

via

Shy people are either overthinking or highly observant of the social setting.

And in many cases it can be both.

'So what do I do?'

You learn the 75/25 law.

'What is that?'

The law of charisma...👇

Let's address the over thinkers first.

Do you have any idea why you overthink?

'Yea. Because others are judging how shy I am.'

Incorrect.

Others are thinking about themselves, not you.

But the fact that you think they are thinking about you, you fuck up the interaction.

Now you stay in your head too much & avoid the present moment.

A major no no in the social world.

Your tendency to think that others are judging you for being shy, coincidentally makes you more shy.

And that's when you start giving off a strange vibration to the social setting.

This is when you begin attracting comments like 'why are you so quiet?'

Soon to be mother, Mrs. Gemma Edwards was never a believer of miracles until it was time for her to deliver...

Gemma and her husband Craig Edwards had already chosen a name for their unborn child, they named her "SKYE"and she was truly a miracle from the sky...

#OdogwuTales

She was already booked to deliver her baby Skye via Ceasarian Section because she had an extra bone in her pelvis making her birth canal questionable

It was 4days before her due date but she just felt the urge to go to the hospital and she went...she was rushed in for surgery...

Baby "Skye" was delivered and she just cried a little and stopped and that's when the doctors knew all was not well...

Baby Skye had rashes and bruises all over her body, she also had severe heart, blood and lung problems...

Her internal orgrans were practically shutting down!

Doctors told the Mr & Mrs Edwards that if she had spent another 3hours at home, Baby Skye would have died in her womb that her coming in early gives her a chance at survival...

Doctors worked hard to save Baby Skye but no one could figure out what was wrong, after a few hours...

All hope was lost for Baby Skye and the doctors called the hospital chaplain to say prayers, Craig and Gemma were told to take pictures before it was too late

Family members flocked to the hospital to say "Goodbye" to the little girl that had just arrived..BUT GOD WAS NOT DONE!
