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.

WTF else do you want?
5) The River Wild

Most overlooked movie about masculinity on this list.

Most will remember this movie because of Meryl Streep and Kevin Bacon.

Few will remember the transition David Strathairn made from soy dad to chad dad.

Highly recommended movie especially for Dads.
6) The Founder

Often in life it's not about being the smartest man in the room or having the best idea.

It's about who has the most cunning and ambition and no one had more cunning and ambition than Ray Kroc.
7) L.A Confidential

I love this film for many reasons but I'm putting it on the list because it forces men to question how far they will go to defend their moral values.

Will they go as far as to break the law?

Expect tons of sex, corruption, violence and outright degeneracy.
I know a lot of you are probably thinking "but what about the Godfather and Casino and Goodfellas and all those bad ass mafioso movies you didn't include?"

Fuck I dunno... How about expanding your horizons a little bit?

I did include Predator at least...

I've sold $200,000+ with email.

The emails:
> 200-500 words
> 15-20 minutes to write
> Can be re-used to make munny over and over again

Here are the 9 email rules I've learned.

Took me 4 years and $1000s in courses and failure to learn.

You get them for free.

//Thread//:
1) Stop giving "value"

A lot of people think if they give a ton of info and value in their emails, the subscribers will thank them by buying their stuff.

Better to bait them with one piece of the puzzle then show them how they can solve the rest of the puzzle by buying.
2) Infotain

Learned this from email supremacist Ben Settle.

As the name implies, infotainment is when you frankenstein information with entertainment.

It works wonders with content but it works even better with emails.

Not only will people buy, they will enjoy it.

The first client I ever signed paid me $50 to write ONE email.

I knew NOTHING about email.

Now I can make over $3,000 in one weekend writing a few emails while I drink my morning coffee.

Here's how you can copy me and do the same by writing dead-simple emails

//THREAD//:
This is not clickbait and I'm not exaggerating when I say you can make multiple $1000s just by sending a few emails which take 15-20 minutes to write.

You can literally copy and paste what I did and get similar results.

So let's get you paid:
1) Learn to write good emails

Most people write emails that are:
> Long
> Boring
> Unpersuasive
> Make NO money

So here's how I learned to write emails that are short, fun to read, persuasive and make sales.

First.... I joined the best email lists.

1. Focus on comments until you're at 1,000 followers. This will allow you to "siphon" the followers from larger accounts to yours. The more consistent and higher quality your comments, the faster you'll grow.

I helped a guy quit his 9-5 job. Now he makes a full-time income from his online business.

No logo
No coding
No website
No complex funnels.
No online business experience

Just a Twitter (X) account and an email list.

Here's everything we did step by step:
If you apply it, this thread is easily worth $1000s.

I have nothing to sell you. No sneaky product links or upsells.

But please RT the first tweet to help others get more out of Twitter.

Now let's help you break free from the 9-5 grind👇
Few things you need to know about my client:
> He had a tough blue collar job welding machines
> He had one skill (writing)
> He had no audience

All we had to do was:
1) Build his audience
2) Define his positioning
3) Create an offer
4) Sell

Here's we did it (do this)👇

How I made $200,000+ profit...

> with HORRIBLE engagement
> only "working" 20 minutes a day
> without sending a single cold DM

This is a repeatable process I've been refining for 2+ years.

And now it's yours for free.

Thread:
The year is 2020. And since everyone is stuck at home scrolling Twitter instead of outside because of the pandemic...

Everyone is building and monetising their Twitter audience.

Everyone is selling courses and making money.

Then 2021 rolls around and everything changes....
The pandemic is coming to an end.

People are leaving their homes which means they're spending less time on Twitter.

Many brands (aka me) started to panic because engagement is going down.

That's when I realised I needed to build a business that isn't dependent on algorithms...

I used to hit the snooze button 3 times so I could sit in traffic and get to an 8 hour/day job that was burning me out.

Now I wake up everyday without an alarm clock and work for 3 hours/day with no stress or risk of burn out.

Here's 7 ideas that helped me break free:
1) Skills > Time

If you want to break free, then you need to stop exchanging your time for money.

Instead, increase your value and trade that for money:

> Invest in self-education
> Practice your craft
> Invest in mentorship

More value = Less time spent to make money
2) Build an audience

You already spend hours on social media. Instead of scrolling, use that time to create content and build an audience.

Anybody can do this. If you hate your job, do this on your lunch break.

Once you have an audience, start monetizing and out earn your boss
