A quick story from @tferriss Podcast #125:

Derek Sivers (@sivers) lived in Santa Monica.

He typically went on the same bike route along the beach.

He always tried his hardest, huffing and puffing on his bike route.

It took him 43 minutes. Consistently.
One day he didn’t want to go on his bike (because it was hard work).

So he said, “You know what, I’m just gonna take it easy today.”

He biked along the beach, noticing the scenes he was too busy to see before.

A pelican even shat in his mouth.
But he took it easy.

It was an enjoyable ride.

When he looked at his watch, he was shocked.

45 minutes.

All that huffing and puffing, for two extra minutes.

Makes ya think, doesn't it?

Yo.

Make it your goal to put an offer in front of traffic in the next week

Even if you don’t make money, you’ll be in a better place in a week.

Here are a few ways you can do this

👇
1) Record a YouTube video (pitch something at the end), post on Reddit forum

If it’s a valuable video related to the audience, they’ll probably share it which will attract people to be interested in your pitch
2) Put up a lemonade stand in a busy intersection

Putting up a lemonade stand will teach you more about business than your average book

Doesn’t matter if you’re 7 or 70

You’ll be forced to figure out how to get people’s attention

And sell them

Let's get real practical.

If you're running an ecommerce store, you are running a funnel.

Your goal: make customer take one single action: make a purchase.

This thread will break down exactly how to do this.

You might want to save this one.
STEP 1: Customer sees your ad.

We are a visual species. We see before we read.

If you don't have an eye-catching creative, go back to the drawing board.

Check out how @Nappyb0yy does this with a beautiful picture of one of his watches.
STEP 2: Customer reads your ad.

After the ad creative is the ad copy.

Look at the example above. Chris entices the reader to continue down the funnel using scarcity and urgency

"We only have 19 left" (scarcity)

"Pre-order before their gone" (urgency)

Facebook ads are expensive.

But you don't want to be wasting dollars.

(RT this tweet immediately to make sure a fellow hustler doesn't lose money today.)

5 Question To Ask Before Running an Ad on Facebook

[THREAD - 1 min read]
1) Are my expectations correct?

Let's be real.

You might just be starting out with a brand new Pixel. You're running ads to cold interests.

Are you expecting to be profitable?

Sure, you could be.

But understand the objective.

In the beginning?

Get data.
2) Is my content original?

Stop ripping ads.

FB knows it's copied, so it'll limit your reach.

If you create a custom video yourself, FB will love it and reward you by showing it to more people.

Order the product from Amazon (2 day shipping) and create custom content.

Bam.

#Härtefallfonds & #DSGVO
Habe mir erlaubt, die Richtlinie zum #Härtefallfonds mit verstärktem Augenmerk auf die #DSGVO, insbes #Informationspflichten, zu lesen.
Verantwortlicher ist die #WKÖ, eine Körperschaft öffentlichen Rechts. Unklar bleibt, ob nur die Bundeskammer gemeint ist oder auch die Landeskammern. Es fehlen zudem in der Richtlinie eindeutige Kontaktdaten des Verantworlichen/der Verantwortlichen. #Verantwortlicher
#Zweck ist die "Verarbeitung personenbezogener Daten im Zusammenhang mit der Gewährung von Förderungen nach diesen Richtlinen". Die allgemeine bzw pauschale Zweckbeschreibung liefert mE nicht wirlich ein vollständiges Bild der Verarbeitungsvorgänge. #Transparenzgrundsatz

#Höcke habe ein "linkes Wirtschafts- und Sozialprofil", Höcke sei "linksnational und kollektivistisch unterwegs" - Ein bisschen Nachhilfe in Sachen Ideologiegeschichte für @ulfposh und @christiansoeder, weil diese erschreckende Analyseunfähigkeit ein großes Problem ist (Thread)
Höcke steht in der ideologiegeschichtlichen Traditionslinie eines völkischen "Antikapitalismus", also eines (vermeintlichen) Antikapitalismus von rechts. Dieser "Antikapitalismus" ist aber weder links noch stellt er eine materialistische Kritik der Verhältnisse dar (1)
Er ist viel mehr eine banale Kommunikationsstrategie, andere Wähler*innen-Gruppen anzusprechen, er ist und war - historisch - vor allem aber ein weiteres Ideologiegerüst, Antisemitismus salonfähig zu machen bzw. dessen Basis zu verbreitern (2)

#OnceUponATime,Six Blind fellows came in front of an elephant.
The first guy, Abraham by name, felt up the trunk and declared elephant is long & flexible.
When the elephant started probing with its trunk, seeking food, Abraham pushed his son to front.
1/7
Elephant a herbivore, returned the child to Abraham.

Next guy Moses, when he approached, elephant lifted up its head & trunk.
Moses reached its leg, declared it is solid, straight like pillar & not flexible. He issued commandments, rigid, inflexible & hard as elephant hide.
2/7
Next guy, Siddhartha was tall, he could reach upto the ears, declared elephant is flat, thin and broad and provides comforting wind when you move it.

#QAnon Thread/ #WarGames, #NSA, Past Drops Comms Clues- Shall We Play a Game?

As things speed up, I wanted to briefly slow down and take some time to expand my thinking. May lead to nothing but hey, no one ever discovered electricity without keying up a kite in the rain.

Q drop 3019 (3/10/19) has been fairly overlooked. Q links to an @NSAGov page providing monthly math and logic puzzles. This one was from May 15, 2016.

#QAnon 3019 is a ‘Shall We Play A Game?’ drop. This movie quote comes from #WarGames, and NSA’s puzzle of 5/15/2018 Q points to is dedicated to its 35th anniv. As you probly know, in it a teen hacker averts nuclear war by getting a supercomputer to play itself in tic-tac-toe.
