My one person online business makes $20k+ per month and I only work 3-4 hours per day.

No cold showers
No productivity apps
No fancy morning routines

Here's the 5 step process I use to get shit done and get paid (even if you're the world's laziest person):
This thread will save you a f*ckton of time and took me 5 years of trial and error to write.

Let's get started 👇
Most people overcomplicate productivity.

They think there's something wrong with them and the only thing stopping them from being productive is another app, routine or "hack".

I've tried them ALL and let me tell you 99% of it is BS.

The following 5 steps are all you need:
1) Make a to-do list BEFORE you go to bed

> Prepping a list in advance will slash your procrastination by half as you won't wake up asking "what should I do?"

> Keep it at 6 high ROI tasks max.

> No need to overcomplicate with apps. Write it down on paper.
2) Order your task list from hardest to easiest

> Soon as your morning routine is done, start working on your list

> Do the hardest task, then move onto the next

> Do this step right and you'll accomplish more by midday than most people achieve in one week
3) Work on 1 thing at a time

>Multitasking is great if you like to feel like you are getting things done vs actually getting things done

> Complete 1 item, cross it off your list from 👆, then move onto the next task

> Listen to classical music to get into focus-mode
4) Use a timer

> If you give yourself 1 week to write an article, it will take you one week.

> If you give yourself 1 hour to write an article, it will take you one hour.

> Lesson: If you want to get things done faster, give yourself a tighter deadline
5) Use Sundays to plan

Every Sunday I spend 15 minutes writing out my goals for the week.

The goals are split into 2 categories; personal and business.

Eg for Business
- Write 2 threads
- Book 3 sales calls

Eg for Personal
- Gym x 4
- Buy new sim card
80% of the time "trying to be more productive" is just an excuse to procrastinate.

So stop shopping around for the latest hack or app.

These 5 steps are more than enough to help you crush your goals and outwork most people.
Summary: How to be productive AF in 5 steps

1) Write tomorrow's task list before you go to bed
2) Order task list from most important to least important
3) Do ONE thing at a time
4) Use a timer to increase focus and urgency
5) Use Sundays to plan your week

All you need.

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

2) Define his positioning
3) Create an offer
4) Sell

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
