Im not trying to push marriage down anyones throat.

If you dont believe in it, or are against it, then far be it from me to change your mind.

To everyone else, my wife and I have been together nearly 20 years. We've made it through more shit than most could handle.

(Thread)
We've been poorer than dirt poor, homeless, lost 2 children, have fought incessantly, but we still managed to come through the other side. How? Love? Sure. That's part of it. It has to be. But life isnt a movie and "love" alone isnt enough. There's a lot of work that goes into...
it. The cliche's of marriage is 50/50 or happy wife, happy life are fuckin stupid. Marriage isnt two people half in making it whole. It's 100/100 making something new together. And happy wife, happy life? Nah. No woman is going to respect a man that's a doormat. Im not saying...
be a tyrant. No. No one respects them either. But without self respect, you arent gonna be respected. It's certainly not easy, and if it isnt for you, fine. Go do you. But if you're thinking their isnt anything you can do to make your marriage better, listen up.

Work on you.
Yeah. Work on you. Be a better man. A better dad. A better husband. Btw these are things I struggle with daily so dont think otherwise. But since you have zero control on what other people do, focus on being better.

Get your weight right.
Get fit.
Get smarter.
Be more assertive.
Learn to listen.
Get your temper in check.
Face and deal with whatever baggage you have.

Now, there is a caveat.

Doing all of the above DOES NOT GUARANTEE that your marriage will get better. But guess what?

It might.

If it doesnt, that's ok. Sometimes thinga dont work out.
But if it doesnt, then you will be walking into a new chapter of life as the best version of yourself you could possibly be.

You want to try again?

Cool. Well this time around you are gonna be one hell of a catch for the next one.

How I grew a $100k/yr writing business in less than a year.

Thread/
It's 2023 and most people still don't realize Twitter is the easiest place to start a client based business.

Reason being that once they end up on "Money Twitter" they fall into one of two categories that get them stuck.

Those categories?
1. Being hyper focused on growing as big an audience as possible

2. Trying to get rich quick selling low quality courses/ebooks

And the catalyst that causes both?

Twitter growth guides.

I'll explain.

The number one thing you need to consider before sending a cold dm:

"How will what I send them benefit them?"

Is it going to:

- Make them smarter
- Make them more money
- Make their life easier

If you can't check at least one of those boxes, don't send the dm.

Let me explain
You've seen people complaining about how many cold dms on the timeline.

It's ridiculous.

I get a few hundred a week and ignore most of them because they aren't offering me one of the 3 things I listed above.

Almost all of them are asking for something instead of GIVING.
So check this out,

If I was going to DM someone, the first thing I need to make sure of is that I have something they want.

For example.

Let's say they have a coaching offer, but I notice some mistakes they're making in the way they promote it.

Here's how I would open.

I spent 4 years and thousands of dollars learning there are two kinds of clients on Twitter.

1. Those that give you clues that you should dm them.

2. Those that will only dm you.

Here's how you tell the difference and how you get them on a call.
Everyone's afraid of doing outreach because they either:

- Fear being rejected
- Don't know who to dm
- Don't know what to say

The first is just something you can only get over by experiencing it.

As for the second and third things, I'll show you.
Now, I LOVE reading, but I hate reading business books.

I'd rather go to them for answers than sit and read the whole thing, so I was surprised at how much I enjoyed Expert Secrets by @russellbrunson.

In the book, he talks about your Dream 100.

3 questions you need to answer to build a loyal audience that will not only engage with your content but also become paying customers and clients.

1) What problem am I solving?
2) Is this a problem I'd enjoy solving for a long time?
3) Who is the exact person I'm creating for?
Now,

There are 3 major niches that you can solve problems that people are willing to pay for.

- Wealth
- Health
- Relationships

People always want to make more money, people always want to get in shape or loss weight, and people always want to improve their love life.
But you can't just be a generalist when it comes to either one of these.

People have specific problems, so you need to have specific offers that contain specific solutions.

Here's what I mean.

Making money on social media is WAY easier today than it was when I first got started in 2019.

Back then, I was throwing all kinds of content at the wall to grow and make money,

But after 106K tweets, I learned there are only 4 kinds of tweets that make money.

Here they are:
Tweets that people can ACT on:

- Tips
- Resources
- Frameworks

Things that people can start using within 5 minutes after reading your tweet and see some instant results.

The faster people feel gratification, the better.
Tweets that inspire:

- Thing you've learned along the way
- Mistakes you've made
- Personal and client stories that show transformations

People LOVE a come up story because of one simple reason.

It gives them hope.

And people love the idea that they can always get better.

I can't remember who it was, but one of you posted a video on Twitter of some kids trying to figure out how to use a rotary phone.
The adults in the video were all laughing and carrying on while the kids did everything except dial the phone, and the comments were full of people saying the same thing.

"Kids these days don't know how to do anything."

And you know what?

They're right.
But whose fault is that?

The blame falls on the parents.

We live in a world where parents have been offloading their duties to TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter, so it's no wonder why these kids don't know anything.
