You don't need 1000s of followers.

Great content and helping others can help you make $400k/yr with just 500 followers.

Here is the Pragmatic Playbook for using Twitter the easy way 👇 Let me be transparent, I get tempted by vanity metrics too frequently.

But follower count does not matter.

Having 100k followers often still get the same results as someone with 10k followers.

How Threads on Twitter need to change: With thousands of insights shared on Twitter daily, it is no wonder that people call Twitter a university.

Instead of $40k in tuition, creators get paid with loyalty.

(fyi - growth hacks don't build fans)

Employees get minimal help with their careers.

The hard way means making a lot of mistakes.

11 lessons from when I was able to 10x my salary in 3 years. 👇 Over 10 years ago, I was in serious debt from entrepreneurial efforts.

I needed to reboot my career.

But, HR departments only focused on legal issues.

So I asked around and tried a lot of things.

What worked and got me to win an award from the industry:

All that sweat - down the drain.

I have spent 1000+ hours analyzing the top creators.

21 years ago I got into MIT.

I learned my most important life lesson:

You don't need to be a genius to achieve the impossible.

Here is how helping one friend got me started on this journey 👇 ImageImage Surviving in a 3rd world country is only possible when your parents sacrifice for you.

So I wanted to make them proud.

My parents valued education.

But I had a big problem - I found classes boring.

The most watched storyteller of all time.

Casey Neistat.

Since 2003, he has been defining vlogging gaining 12.4M subscribers and 3B views.

Lessons from his rags-to-riches story that can allow you to have the same impact: Casey Niestat is above all else, a weirdo.

He has a wild personality, and a style to match.

He shows how passion and perseverance would bring success.

And pioneer a genre.

Even astronauts face imposter syndrome.

You're not alone. It's ever-present but manageable.

How 1 man overcame it and achieved more than most can imagine: Jonny's (@JonnyKimUSA) childhood was relatively normal.

He lived in LA, his mom was a substitute teacher, and his dad owned a liquor store.

But Jonny was crippled by imposter syndrome.

His parents wanted more from him, but he didn't know if he had the skills.

Stop sending your kids to school.

We're being misled by the education system.

You need to provide better 'support' first.

Research suggests doing 3 simple things. 👇 We know that the education system is failing us.

It is outdated.

So how do we succeed?

And what is holding us back?

Amanda Ripley did the research on this.

5 years later she published her results in an NYT bestseller book.

Thinking you are a visual learner? There is more to it.

Everyone talks about learning styles:
- Visual
- Auditory
- Reading/Writing
- Kinesthetic

But, grouping this way doesn't really make a difference.

Here is what does. 👇👇👇 There is hard evidence against learning styles.

Yes, Visual and auditory aids assist everyone in learning.

But learning is 100x more effective when students care.

And there is a lot that we can do to increase engagement.

Upleveling oneself is hard.

The basics are easy, but putting things into practice means getting the subtle details right.

This is where Cohort-Based Courses are supposed to help.

They help you apply what you learn.

Here is how I plan to do it well👇 The secret really is in 'flipped classrooms', where:
› you learn the basics on your own time.
› you work through applications in class/workshops.

Learning by doing is 7x as effective than traditional approaches.

(learning by teaching is even better - at 9x as effective).

Don't get swallowed by the void.

There's more to Twitter than just putting things out and hoping for the best.

You have to make sure people can actually see it.

And succeed with it.

Try these and make social media work for you. 👇👇👇 ♦ Social media alone doesn't mean success.

Just showing up isn't enough.

Social media takes work to get right, like:

- Knowing who to engage with, and
- Refining what you post.

Otherwise, you are just yelling at a wall about how great you or your product is.

Is Impostor Syndrome slowing you down?

80% of those that I respect have it.

Here is how you can overcome it. 👇 1. Share Experiences over Wisdom 🧭

Your experiences makes others want to trust you.
