Pixar has made $14+ billion by sharing stories.

And each movie uses the same 22 rules.

7 of them are incredible for building your personal brand.

Discover them here (with clip examples): Image
1.) Use one core message

Most people forget that less is more.

Cut the fluff because too many messages makes confusion.

Example:

Inside Out - Joy realizes the importance of Sadness

That's it.

The narrative creates easy meaning.

And a memorable bond.
2.) Make Characters Relatable

When people relate to a character, they feel they're in the story.

This boosts engagement.

For your brand:

Write about the client's problems.

Share:
•Wins
•Traits
•Losses
•Emotions

Example: Toy Story - The fear of being replaced
3.) Leverage Visual Storytelling

If a picture is worth 1,000 words,

A visual is worth 1,000,000.

AI made it easy to add visuals to your writing.

Plus the algorithm boosts videos and footage.

Create clips and shorts.

Then attach them to threads.

Example: Wall-E intro
4.) Focus on making your audience feel something.

You can Tweet, publish, and share all you want.

But without emotion, you may have done nothing at all.

Show your own transformation & get vulnerable.

People connect and see themselves in you.

Example: Up - Carl and Ellie
5.) Use humor to engage the audience.

Laughter breaks the tension in a boring feed.

Humor stops mindless scrolling.

The best creators joke around, leave silly comments, and show personality.

Example: Monster Inc. - Sully’s morning
6.) Twist expectations to keep your audience engaged.

Challenge the status quo.

There is a ton of cliche advice floating around.

This contrarian take creates a twist.

The twist is refreshing and puts your content in the spotlight

Example: Finding Nemo the Escape Plan
7.) Keep the story believable and authentic.

Be raw. Be real. Be vulnerable.

With success comes haters.

Don't lie or steer off course.

The most powerful brands are true to themselves and their beliefs.

Don't bend backward because of rude comments.

Example: - Ratatouille
TLDR:
1.) Use one core message
2.) Make Characters Relatable
3.) Leverage Visual Storytelling
4.) Focus on making your audience feel something.
5.) Use humor to engage the audience.
6.) Twist expectations to keep your audience engaged.
7.) Keep the story believable and authentic

I used to suck at storytelling.

But then I discovered an incredible tactic:

Future pacing.

Here’s how you can use it to tell masterful stories:
What is future pacing?

Future pacing makes your reader imagine an outcome.

It paints a picture in their head,

They get what they want.

Here’s why you need to use it:

I’m obsessed with focus.

For 13 years I’ve tried every routine, hack, and nootropic to get things done fast.

Here are the best tricks to increase focus (bookmark this): Image
1. Rhodiola Rosea

The bizarre plant found in Russia was used by powerlifters back in the day to focus while lifting.

The roots of the plant increase certain neurotransmitters.

This one supplement helps me slay workouts with ease.

It also decreases depression while enhancing work production.

It destroys fatigue.

And for a bonus: It eliminates high altitude sickness.
2. Yoga Nidra (also known yogic sleep)

Can you sleep while you’re awake?

Yoga Nidra boosts your focus by shifting the body into a parasympathetic state (rest and digest mode).

Not only does this reduce stress and anxiety, this state resets your nervous system.

Yoga Nidra gets rid of mental noise and clutter. Which sharpens focus.

20 minutes a day does wonders.

I'm American.

I just revisited my home country after moving abroad 2 years ago.

What I saw shocked me.

13 American oddities I still can't believe: Image
1. The prescription drug advertisement paradox

Every other TV commercial promotes prescription medications.

Which all have cheerful people frolicking in fields while a rapid-fire voiceover lists all lethal side effects.

Almost nowhere else in the world allows direct-to-consumer pharmaceutical advertising.

Wtf?
2. Eating out costs a fortune

I took my Mom to breakfast.

•Coffee
•2 omellettes
•Side of pancakes and hashbrowns
Cost $50 not including the tip.

I can’t believe people pay so much for mediocre food.

Even fast food is pricey Image

I'm American.

Last year I moved to Brazil.

What I’ve seen shocked me.

10 crazy Brazilian experiences I still can’t wrap my head around: Image
I love coffee.

So that means I’m a slave to the coffee machine.

Most Brazilians don’t use coffee machines.

They keep it old school and pour hot water into a filter with the coffee grounds.

This used to drive me crazy because I wanted coffee ASAP.

But now I enjoy the smell and process.

Slowing down makes you grateful for the little things.
Outdoor living:

I fell in love with how “open” the houses are.

In North America, homes are closed due to cold weather.

In Brazil many of the houses have a huge open area in the middle.

Or a big outdoor patio in the center of the house.

It makes enjoying the sunshine easy.

And what’s better than that?Image
