@Copywriting_Dad It's never too late to forgive your parents

By age 30, you may have a better understanding of what they went through and why they made the choices they did

Forgiveness can lead to improved relationships and greater peace of mind

How to stay disciplined in posting consistently on Twitter:

- Get a scheduling app (Hypefury)
- Choose a 1-2 hour block to write content

That's it.

The iPhone is so much better than any other phone it isn’t funny.

I now check for phone type in interviews and automatically disqualify the android users.

[Stefan Smulders @SmuldersStefan]

I've been posting on LinkedIn for 100+ days.

Got at least 5 requests to jump on podcasts.

I'm sure those podcasts will open many doors, bring in new clients, and spark relationships.

If you're in doubt:

Build your social presence there.

It 100% pays-off.

Affirm: it’s a privilege to enjoy another day on earth solving problems for profit.

Here is your reminder that Mother's Day is in 13 days.

Get those flower orders in!

3 habits that *greatly* accelerated my progress as a beginner writer:

1. Choosing (and sticking to) an output cadence

2. Choosing (and sticking to) a set time of day to write

3. Capturing ideas anywhere and everywhere

With these 3, I had a "foundation" I could build upon.

Don’t let the fear of failure stop you from starting.

[Jose Rosado @ WebScale @joserosado]

My daily to-do list is only 1 to 3 tasks long.

This one habit transformed my business forever.

No fancy tech
No big actions
No streess

Just easy work.

Don't let your lack of knowledge hold you back.

Imperfect action is better than no action.

Start where you are, use what you have, and do what you can.

[David Perell @david_perell]

Quality is a power law. The best books are way, way better than average ones. Once you spend meaningful time with the best books ever written, everything else feels dim in comparison.

[Dakota Robertson @WrongsToWrite]

You can't become the hero of your story if you don't face adversity.

[Kieran Drew @ItsKieranDrew]

One of the most underrated parts of building online is that you’re rewarded for creativity, not conformity.

[George Ten @GrammarHippy]

I’m sometimes afraid to read sales letters of pro copywriters.

I start…
Skim through it…

Until a word in bold catches my eye.
“DAMMIT! He caught me!”

Then suddenly you’re at the end of the letter…

Shouting… “BABE! WHERE’S MY CREDIT CARD?”

Yeah.
That happens.

[Rory McLaughlan @r0rymclaughlan]

CR dropped overnight from 1.4% to 0.7%, and has stayed there for last few days.

Every agency blaming each other- fun times 🤯

[Dickie Bush @dickiebush]

It has never been easier to win.

If you make 21 podcast episodes, you are in the top 1% of podcasts.

Less than 6 months of consistency!

• Writing tweets
• Making podcasts
• Posting on Instagram

Doing literally *anything* consistently for 6 months will change your life.

[Dickie Bush @dickiebush]

Not sure what to write about?

Uncover the ideas that are obvious to you now—but weren't 2 years ago.

Ask yourself, over the last 2 years, what:

• Topics have you learned?
• Jobs have you started (or quit)?
• Life transitions have you made?

Boom—now write about those.

[Copywriting Tips @copy_tips]

Some questions, usually beginning with 'what' or 'how', encourage readers to reflect more deeply on themselves and their situation. In neuro-linguistic programming (NLP) they're called 'meta model questions'.

[Kieran Drew @ItsKieranDrew]

I can't believe you managed to build that supercool image with AI.

Let me pay you lots of money.

- Said nobody ever.

Go do something useful.
