Quick PSA: If you enjoy this thread please share the love by retweeting the first tweet ☝ and like each tweet as you thread through the thread.

Thank you 🙏

Let's begin
1. Writing is the hardest mental exercise you can perform

Writing is hard.

Don't believe me?

Spend 1 hour writing every day for 30 days.

Sound simple? Most people will give up.

Writing daily will make you mentally tougher because it's hard AF to do.
2. Writing well = thinking well

Research shows your mind receives an average of 100,000 thoughts A DAY.

With smart phones, that number is probably higher.

Writing is the best way to systematically process those thoughts into something useful.

Writing is intentional thinking.
3. "Words are the atomic unit of the internet" - @david_perell

The better you write, the more opportunities you will have online.

The internet is the goldrush for good writers.

You can sell books.

You can build a blog and an email list.

You can get paid to write for others.
4. Writing makes you smarter

Writing is exercise for your brain.

Just as lifting weights and eating healthy improves your physical health

Writing daily improves your mental health.

Experimenting with your thoughts on paper is the fastest way to improve them.
5. Writing makes you more interesting

90% of people are consumers, while only 10% are creators.

This is true of business but also of content.

Who do you think is more interesting? The guy who watches Youtube all day or the guy who creates all day?

7 fiction books every man must read

//THREAD//
1. Blood Meridian

War and violence are a natural part of men which is why we are so drawn to it.

This book will teach you about the dark reality of human nature.

It is extremely violent, it is raw, it is bloody but in a weird way it is beautiful.
2. Gates of Fire
A fictional account of the battle of Thermopylae, where 300 Spartan warriors were tasked with defending against a Persian army of millions.

This book will teach you about loyalty and honour; two important traits that are rarely found in modern men.

🎉 I reached 19,000 followers last week.

As a way of saying thanks, here are 19 UNUSUAL TIPS TO HELP YOU BECOME A BETTER WRITER.

🚨Warning: There no shortcuts here but if you're willing to put in the work, these tips will improve your writing.

[THREAD]
1) Be a student of human nature

You are writing to a human audience.

Therefore if you want your reading to resonate, you need to understand who you're writing for.

Every good writer I know is a keen observer of human nature for this reason.
2) Drink more water

If you're dehydrated, your brain won't flow.

Most of the "brain fog" and "writer's block" you feel is very likely because you are dehydrated.

Always keep a big bottle of water with you.

99.99% motivational books belong in the trash can.

There's only one you need to read and that's

The Education of a Body Builder by Arnold Schwarzenegger

Here are the most impactful quotes from it.

[THREAD]
Before long, people began looking at me as a special person.

Partly this was the result of my own changing attitude about myself.
I know that if you can change your diet and exercise program to give yourself a different body, you can apply the same principles to anything else (1/2)

Two quick things first:

1) If you get value out of this thread, I'd appreciate a RT of the first tweet ☝
2) To get the full context of these quotes, listen to the full podcast... Obviously.

How to write words that sell

7 profitable lessons on the craft of selling with the written word from David Ogilvy

aka the "Original Mad Man"

aka the "Father of advertising"

[THREAD]

P.S: He bought 👇chateau with the money he made from writing ads
1. "Don't beat about the bush - go straight to the point"

Your goal with any piece of copy is to SELL.

A product.
A service.
An idea.

Whatever.

If you don't believe in what you sell, then don't bother writing about it.

Go big or go home.
2. Research > Writing

"Advertising people who ignore research are as dangerous as generals who ignore decodes of enemy signals."

Before advertising, Ogilvy worked for George Gallup, founder of Gallop Poll where he learned the power of knowing your target audience.
