The Creator
Dickie Bush is a prolific writer and builder of skills and businesses, passionate about empowering others through effective writing and storytelling. Formerly a trader at BlackRock, he now channels his analytical background and creativity to demystify complex ideas and elevate others' writing prowess. His tweets serve as masterclasses in communication and business growth, evolving his audience with practical insights and inspiring frameworks.
For a guy who’s helped thousands kickstart their writing, Dickie’s tweet count suggests he’s single-handedly trying to out-tweet every keyboard warrior on the platform—maybe next time he can write a book titled ‘How to Speak Human and Not Just Tweet Nonstop.’
Successfully helped over 10,000 aspiring writers start their journey, proving his expertise and impact in making effective writing accessible and achievable.
To help tens of thousands unlock the art and power of storytelling and writing, transforming their thoughts into impactful content that drives personal and professional success.
Dickie believes in lifelong learning, the democratization of knowledge, and that mastering effective communication is the cornerstone of influence and entrepreneurship. He values clarity, creativity, and actionable education over formal, costly systems that fail to equip people.
His ability to distill complex concepts into actionable, engaging content combined with a relentless work ethic—tweeting nearly 30,000 times—has helped him build a loyal and growing community.
His sheer volume of tweets can sometimes overwhelm followers, making it easy for key insights to get buried in the flood of content; and his relentless focus on writing might overwhelm those seeking more diversified content.
Focus on threading your top-performing insights into bite-sized, easily digestible series that build suspense and engagement. Sprinkle in live Q&As or polls to boost interaction and deepen community ties to grow your audience organically on X.
Dickie once transitioned from a high-stakes trader to a master wordsmith, helping over 10,000 people start writing, proving it’s never too late to completely pivot and excel.

years ago I quit my full-time job on Wall Street\n\nHere is the exact series of events & realizations I had along the way:\n\n1. Got my dream job as a hedge fund trader, $120k/year my first year at age 22, thought I would want to do it forever\n\n2. 6 months in, realized that the people 15 years ahead of me did not live lives I wanted to live\n\n3. Realized I needed to find a way to passively find other opportunities while slowly plotting my escape\n\nThis led me to 𝕏 where I started following people talking about online business\n\n4. Realized I was going to have to enter a period of extreme intensity as I had to be at my desk in the office every day by 7 AM\n\nBegan waking up at 4:30 AM every day for a year, spent the first 2 hours of every day reading books on writing & business\n\n5. COVID hit, which meant I got to start working from home\n\nSuddenly realized that I did about 2 hours of actual work per day at my job, the rest was just pretending to work since everyone could see my screen\n\nQuickly created checklists for myself to streamline the actual things I was responsible for doing every day. Began to reinvest all the extra time into learning & writing\n\n6. Throughout 2020, I wrote a weekly newsletter called Dickie’s Digest\n\nAll I did was summarize podcasts & books I was reading & listening to that week as a forcing function to learn\n\nEvery Sunday, I would spend 4-5 hours writing my newsletter\n\nAfter 32 editions, I had about 200 subscribers\n\nSo I was ready to give up writing entirely\n\n7. September 2020, I decided to go from writing a weekly newsletter to writing a daily Atomic Essay or thread on 𝕏\n\nI wrote and published something every day for 30 days in a row\n\nDay 28, my first thread went viral\n\nOvernight I went from 200 newsletter subscribers to 1400 and from 250 𝕏 followers to 2000\n\n8. That viral thread ended up in the hands of a legendary copywriter, Craig Clemens\n\nHe DM’d me asking if I would do something similar for him, a distillation of his best ideas that were spread all over the internet across various blog posts & keynote speeches\n\nI accepted, and said I would do it for free\n\n9. I spent the weekend immersing myself in his worldview\n\nI listened to 10 keynotes and read at least 30 articles\n\nI packaged it all up nicely into 2 separate book outlines - one distilling his thoughts on copywriting. The other his thoughts on life. \n\nI sent it over to him and he was floored\n\nHis assistant wired me $5,000 and I thought it was a typo\n\nMy brain was completely broken that the words I wrote on the internet led me to getting paid that much\n\nI didn’t know it at the time, but I had accidentally stumbled into the world of ghostwriting \n\n10. That ghostwriting client sent a cold email connecting me with my now business partner Nicolas Cole\n\nThe email started saying “Not sure why, but I think you two should know each other. I’ll let you two take it from here”\n\nCole and I connected and instantly clicked\n\nBoth former gamers & former athletes who loved writing on the internet\n\n11. That 30-day personal writing challenge changed my life\n\nIt led me to meet tons of people I looked up to and generated my first $5,000 on the internet\n\nI knew I wanted to keep writing, but I also knew it would be hard to do it alone\n\nSo I tweeted out a simple tweet asking if anyone would like to join me for a 30-day writing challenge called Ship 30 for 30\n\nThe tweet blew up and had hundreds of replies\n\nI spun up a landing page and charged anyone who wanted to join $50 to enter, but I promised to give them their money back if they wrote all 30 days\n\n7 days later, there were 50 of us in Slack channel writing & publishing daily Atomic Essays\n\n12. I held 1:1 interviews with basically everyone in that cohort\n\nI wanted to know what they liked, what they didn’t like, why they joined, and what they would change if they could\n\nI collected testimonials from as many people as possible\n\nI wired back the money to anyone who wanted it, but most told me to keep it, so I donated it\n\n13. Now it was November 2020—cohort-based courses were exploding in popularity \n\nEveryone was working from home and armed with stimulus checks\n\nSo I decided to make the next cohort $99, and you didn’t get your money back\n\nI was terrified to charge something, but I did it anyway\n\nI fired off the launch email and the Stripe notifications started to pour in\n\n14. Fast forward to January 2021, and Ship 30 was starting to accelerate in popularity\n\nCole was a part of that cohort and gave a few guest Office Hours sessions to talk about his writing frameworks\n\nI quickly realized there was no way I was going to build a successful business just focused around building a writing habit & publishing your first piece of writing\n\nThere needed to be a full-blown curriculum and structure\n\nSo we partnered up 50/50 and began to build Ship 30 into the internet’s fastest-growing cohort-based course\n\n15. The next 12 months were the most intense 12 months of my life\n\nI woke up every day at 4:30 AM, worked out, then wrote for 3 hours\n\nI then worked a full day (remotely) at my full-time job, bouncing between Slack (where we hosted our cohort) and Microsoft Teams (where I had to communicate with my team internally)\n\nI scheduled all of our cohort calls for Friday at 12 PM because we had an internal policy at work that meetings were not allowed on Friday after that time\n\n16. We obsessed over making Ship 30 an incredible experience\n\nAt just $249, we had hundreds and hundreds of people sign up for a cohort every ~8 weeks. \n\nEvery cohort we improved something:\n\nBetter content\nBetter curriculum\nBetter accountability\n\nWe were obsessed with creating an experience people couldn’t help but tell their friends about\n\n17. Throughout the year, Ship 30 continued to accelerate, and so did my writing on 𝕏\n\nI wrote 3-5 tweets per day + 2 high-quality threads per week\n\nEvery tweet drove to our email list where we wrote educational emails 2x per week with a CTA to join the next cohort of Ship 30\n\nOne platform (𝕏)\nOne product (Ship 30)\nOne avatar (people who wanted to start writing online)\n\n18. And by the end of 2021, we crossed $1,000,000 in total revenue\n\nMy personal take home in 2021 was a little over $600,000\n$180k of that was from my full-time job\nThe other $420k was from Ship 30\n\nI had nearly tripled my W2 income from a side hustle in about 30 months since realizing that I needed to leave that job\n\n19. February 2022 rolls around and my annual bonus hits my bank account\n\nAt this point, it was a bigger financial risk for me to stay at my job than it was to leave\n\nBut I was absolutely terrified\n\nI thought Ship 30 might just be a flash in the pan\n\nI was walking away from a guaranteed $180k/year job that I worked tirelessly throughout college to unlock\n\nMy parents thought I was crazy\n\nHell, I thought I was crazy\n\nI have pages and pages of journal entries tirelessly weighing the pros & cons, modeling every scenario, reflecting as my future self, and more\n\nI was so incredibly risk averse that I almost said I had to prove it again in 2022 before I could finally pull the trigger\n\n20. But in the middle of February, I was on a walk with Cole going back and forth on whether I should quit\n\nI cannot remember the exact thing he said, but something clicked\n\nI think it was something along the lines of what decision would the person I want to become make?\n\nThat made the answer clear\n\nI hung up on him (literally) and walked inside my house, called my boss, and let him know I was putting in my 4 weeks of notice and was going to build a business on my own\n\n21. That was a little over 3 years ago now. Since then we’ve gone on to build a thriving, successful business\n\nThe hedge fund I used to work for ended up closing, and I likely would have been laid off in 2024 because of it. I am grateful every day that I ended up taking that bet on myself\n\nBut I’m also extremely grateful that I proceeded in such a risk-averse way.\n\nI made zero rushed decisions\nI was patient & mitigated my downside\n\nAnd along the way, I was able to put together a story like this one that can hopefully provide value or a roadmap to someone in a similar situation","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,281],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1978582500654948543","view_count":15460,"bookmark_count":115,"created_at":1760565803000,"favorite_count":199,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":37,"retweet_count":17,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1978582500654948543","full_text":"Current infinite pursuits:\n\n1.

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9. Enjoy the ride\n\nI can look back and smile on every single moment of my 4 years as an entrepreneur, even though I was not smiling in the moment.\n\nWhich means you can take the same approach now, no matter how challenging something is.\n\nEvery problem you face & overcome is writing a story you will talk about for the rest of your life. Lighten up and release the grip, it’s not as serious as you’re making it. You can indeed smile through times when everything feels like it’s going to break.\n\nSo if at any time you’re cursing the world, frustrated to no end, running on fumes, or questioning if any of this is worth it in the first place, just jump forward to future you who would do ANYTHING to trade places back to where you are now.","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,121],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1980721887182237772","view_count":14151,"bookmark_count":31,"created_at":1761075872000,"favorite_count":75,"quote_count":0,"reply_count":31,"retweet_count":8,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1980721887182237772","full_text":"You need to be clearing your entire calendar to immerse in new AI tools for multiple days\n\nIdeally an entire week or more","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,280],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1980756844273353152","view_count":9410,"bookmark_count":150,"created_at":1761084207000,"favorite_count":102,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":17,"retweet_count":6,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1980756844273353152","full_text":"How to write a case study post for your business:\n\nBIG OUTCOME HEADLINE\n\nBEFORE US, THEY USED TO X\n\nX LED TO NEGATIVE RESULT AND ULTIMATE NEGATIVE RESULT\n\nLUCKILY, THEY STARTED WORKING WITH US AND DID Y\n\nY LED TO POSITIVE RESULT AND ULTIMATE POSITIVE RESULT\n\nTHE BEST PART?

the last ~18 months, I’ve been in build & manage mode. During that time, our team has grown from 12 to over 30 members.\n\nNow, the next constraint keeping our business from growing to the next level is generating more traffic & attention.\n\nIt will require entering a new season of increased creative output.\n\nHere are the 9 daily principles I'm using to get there:\n\nPrinciple #1: Have a defined vehicle for output\n\nBefore you can “increase your creative output,” you need to get specific on what that means.\n\n• What, specifically, are you going to commit to creating?\n\n• How often are you going to create it?\n\n• Where are you going to publish it?\n\nDo you have to stick with this cadence forever? No.\n\nBut you need some kind of commitment from the beginning.\n\nSo for me, that commitment is going to be publishing a weekly newsletter.\n\nThis is the same cadence I set for myself back in the beginning of 2020 when I first started writing online.\n\nUsing the Lean Writing method, I can turn this one newsletter into:\n\n• A weekly long-form YouTube video \n• 5-10 pieces of short-form content \n• 1-2 pieces of medium-form text content \n• 5-10 Instagram Reels\n\nPrinciple #2: Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\nYou have to create your own set of Sacred Hours you can fully commit to without interruption.\n\nFor me, that’s going to be the first 4 hours of the day.\n\nUsually 7 AM to 11 AM.\n\nThis 4-hour block usually leads to about 3 hours of actual writing time, broken up into two 90-minute blocks separated by a short walk.\n\nI find that trying to write for any longer leads to significantly less output over week-long periods.\n\nIf I can knock out two of these blocks in a day, it’s a huge win.\n\nNow, am I going to be super rigid about this? Absolutely not.\n\nSome days I’ll only write for an hour.\n\nOther days I’ll write for six hours.\n\nWhat matters is I have a default time that I commit to producing as many days as possible.\n\nPrinciple #3: Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\nThis may be the most important factor in maintaining your creative motivation & inspiration.\n\nIf you’re working in a dark space, or an office you don’t like, or in an uncomfortable cafe chair, or with too much noise, you won’t be excited to write.\n\nHowever, if you’re excited by the idea of where you work, you’re much more likely to spend time there.\n\nFor me, that means spending my creative time working outside of the house:\n\n• I love working outside\n\n• I love the ~10-minute walking ritual to my favorite cafe\n\n• I love the ability to drop whatever I’m working on & immediately take a walk\n\nSo at this point you’ve figured out what type of writing you will produce, when you’ll write, and where you’ll write.\n\nIn the next step we figure out what to write.\n\nPrinciple #4: Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\nYour subconscious is incredibly good at solving problems while you sleep.\n\nBut most people never tap into this because of how their evenings go.\n\nIf you go to bed doomscrolling, or consuming tons of information, or with tons of open loops, your brain is unsure what to work on.\n\nSo to prevent this overwhelm & unlock your subconscious brainpower, try this simple end-of-day brain dump routine:\n\n1. During the last few minutes before bed, take out your notebook\n\n2. Brain dump 5-10 bullet points on anything you learned that day or anything that’s on your mind to close the loop or revisit tomorrow\n\n3. Then brain dump another 5-10 bullet points on what you want to work on during your deep work session the next day\n\nThen, shut your notebook and go to sleep.\n\nPrinciple #5: Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\nIf you’re like me, your most excited mornings come when you wake up with a completely clear calendar.\n\nMy output on these days is 50-100% higher:\n\n• I have full freedom over how I will work that day\n• I have zero looming open loops I need to address later\n• I can go fully offline & disappear into deep work\n\nBut this requires an intentional process to maximize your meeting-free blocks:\n\n• Try to turn as many meetings asynchronous as possible\n\n• If a meeting is high-leverage, batch it to one day of the week\n\n• Be rigid in upholding your meeting rules\n\nAnd I put together a simple script you can use whenever someone wants to schedule a meeting:\n\n\"Hey [name], I’m currently heads down in a writing mode keeping a clear calendar on X-Y days of the week. But I can do A time or B time on ABC date if that works for you? Otherwise, happy to jam async if it’s more urgent.\"\n\nNow let’s dig into a couple more tactics that you may find helpful.\n\nPrinciple #6: Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\nYour phone is a creative vampire.\n\nEven if you’re not looking at it, it still whispers at you if it’s anywhere close.\n\nFor me, I’ve built my workflow around writing at a cafe with my phone still at home:\n\n• I do all of my writing on my iPad that doesn’t have any social media apps installed\n\n• I start all of my writing sessions with a handwritten brain dump to get the juices going\n\n• And I’ve added Apple Pay to my Garmin which means I can live as if I had my phone on me without it anywhere nearby\n\nIt’s amazing how much more creative you are when you eliminate distraction AND give yourself a vehicle to capture that inspiration by hand.\n\nPrinciple #7: Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\nFor you to stick with this new writing cadence, you need positive reinforcement.\n\nAnd the easiest way to do that?\n\nLook at charts that only go up.\n\nFor me, this will be:\n\n• Total newsletters published \n• Total newsletter views \n• Total newsletter likes\n\nThese metrics will always trend up as long as you keep writing.\n\nPrinciple #8: Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\nThe thing you most want to avoid is doomscrolling any given platform.\n\nThis immediately turns into creative overwhelm. The algorithm will show you so much content that you'll be paralyzed by all the opportunities.\n\nFor me, I'm going to stick to long-form YouTube and Substack creators for inspiration:\n\n• I’ll focus on studying the way they write, package, create, and iterate\n\n• I’ll use their titles & subject lines as inspiration for ideas I can package in my own way\n\n• I’ll look back at their first 50 videos & newsletters to see how they got started so I don’t compare my step 3 or 4 to someone else’s step 10\n\nThis should lead to a steady drop in total volume of content consumption.\n\nBut an increase in depth.\n\nAnd that’s where your best ideas will come from as your brain has space to synthesize.\n\nPrinciple #9: Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nIncreasing creative output has to be your first priority.\n\n• It has to be the thing you schedule in first \n• It has to be the thing you go to bed thinking about \n• It has to be the thing you wake up excited to work on\n\nIf you’re not in a creative season, that’s fine.\nBut don’t pretend to be.\n\nDon’t expect yourself to achieve high levels of output or deep creative clarity if you’re spread thin across dozens of different projects and initiatives.\n\nNot every season is a creative season.\n\nI haven’t been in one for roughly 18 months.\n\nBut as I enter into this one, it’s my number one focus.\n\nWhich means ruthlessly pruning my days of everything else.\n\nAaaand that’s it.\n\nTo recap all 9 principles:\n\n1. Have a defined vehicle for output\n\n2. Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\n3. Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\n4. Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\n5. Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\n6. Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\n7. Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\n8. Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\n9. Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nGive each of these a try, take what works and discard what doesn’t.\n\nIf you have any questions on a specific principle, leave a comment to let me know!","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,81],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983601820237734305","view_count":11670,"bookmark_count":29,"created_at":1761762502000,"favorite_count":177,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":65,"retweet_count":14,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983601820237734305","full_text":"You are 30 days of daily writing away from a completely different life trajectory","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,260],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983655959403610523","view_count":12630,"bookmark_count":84,"created_at":1761775409000,"favorite_count":280,"quote_count":6,"reply_count":115,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983655959403610523","full_text":"Your life will get a lot easier when you view everything as a skill issue\n\nOut of shape?

\n\nStep 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\nStep 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nTo help you see how this works, let’s walk through a real example:\n\nOur front-end sales process within our Premium Ghostwriting Academy.\n\nStep 0: Understand goals are just math\n\nThis is the most important insight to understand when setting goals in your business.\n\nThe gap between where you are and where you want to be is one number. That number is made up by an equation that has input metrics + efficiency metrics.\n\nYour job is to analyze that equation and find out the part of the equation that needs fixing.\n\nThe part that needs fixing will create a new demand of you—some kind of new initiative you’re not currently doing but is required.\n\nThose demands will force actions that you need to work on every day until those demands are met & the equation looks like you want.\n\nThat’s it.\n\nEverything that is not improving your equation is a distraction.\n\nAnd so most of business goal setting is around getting extremely clear on the gap, the demands it creates, the actions that fulfill those demands, and then ignoring everything else and staying focused on those few critical actions.\n\nLet’s walk through what that looks like.\n\nStep 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\nWe want to hit $500k of new front end cash collected for PGA.\n\nStep 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\nWe did $330k of front end new cash collected last month.\n\nStep 3: Quantify the gap between goal & current\n\nWe are $170k short of our goal.\n\nStep 4: Identify if you have a volume or efficiency bottleneck\n\nWe have an efficiency bottleneck if we could reach our goal by more efficiently converting the number of leads coming in.\n\nWe have a volume bottleneck if we are at KPI on all of our efficiency metrics and simply need more people coming through.\n\nSo for our business, we are at “good enough” KPI to scale based on all of our efficiency metrics.\n\nMarketing efficiency:\n\n• Landing page conversion: 35%\n• % of leads who fill out an app: ~45%\n• % of apps that we keep on the calendar: 20%\n• Lead to kept call ratio: ~8%\n\nAll of these are good enough that they are not worth overly optimizing, especially given how much of it comes from organic.\n\nSales efficiency:\n\n• 75% show rate\n• 75% cash collected\n• 22% close rate @ $6.8k price point\n• = $800 per booked call on average\n\nBoth of our efficiency ratios for sales & marketing are in good shape.\n\nThis means we need to turn all of our attention toward volume.\n\nWe can now calculate the exact amount of additional volume we need to drive.\n\n• $170k cash collected short\n• @ $800 per booked call average cash collected\n• = 212 additional calls per month\n• = 9 more calls per day or 63 more calls per week\n\nWe currently book around 400 calls per month, so we need to raise that number to 600.\n\nSo, how do we do that?\n\nStep 5: Brainstorm all the ways you can fix that bottleneck\n\nIf we needed to book 212 more calls, what are all the things we could do?\n\nThe best way to approach this is through the “more/better/new” framework.\n\nFirst, look at all the places you’re currently generating traffic and make a list of all the places you could do “more.”\n\nThis is your highest risk-adjusted return and return on effort.\n\nHere’s some places we could do “more”:\n\n• More viral drops on LinkedIn? Already at 1x per week, likely capped out.\n\n• More posting on Instagram? Posting 2x per day, capped out.\n\n• More emails? Sending daily email, capped out.\n\n• More YouTube videos? Opportunity here.\n\nSo from that list, we have 2 clear solutions:\n\n1. Post more YouTube videos\n\n2. Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk\n\nNow what about “better?”\n\nWe want to look at all the places we’re currently posting and ask if there are any volume-generating areas that we could do things better to get more out of the current slots we’re using.\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn? Maybe.\n• Better posts on Instagram? Maybe.\n• Better emails? Likely some result.\n• Better YouTube videos? Not posting right now so need to do more first.\n\nSo from that list we have:\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Better posts on Instagram.\n• Better emails.\n\nLastly we want to think about “new.”\n\nWhat are all the things we aren’t currently doing that we think could help us generate more calls?\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\n• Launch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge → Basically a webinar on steroids.\n\nAlright now we have a list of all the things we could do.\n\nLet’s sort them into one list:\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\nLaunch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge.\n• Start making better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Start making better posts on Instagram.\n• Start writing better emails.\n• Post more YouTube videos.\n• Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk.\n\nGreat—we have a good mix of things we could do more of, things we could do better, and new things we need to do.\n\nNow let’s stack rank these to see which are worth doing.\n\nFor each of these initiatives, we need to understand we have limited resources and can only tackle so many.\n\nSo we want to choose the ones that have the highest likelihood of getting us closer to our 212 additional booked calls goal relative to the amount of effort it takes.\n\nWe are going to rank them across two dimensions:\n\n1. Impact (1-5). 5 being we think it has the potential to book an additional 200 calls if we JUST did that thing, 1 being it’s only likely to book a handful more calls.\n\n2. Effort (1-5). 5 being this would be extremely resource intensive with the entire team / lots of time & effort deployed on it, 1 being a very quick win you could just “do” or “decide on” in under an hour.\n\nOnce we’ve ranked them on these two dimensions, we’re going to calculate an “Impact/Effort Ratio” that will be our guiding metric for choosing what to work on.\n\nWith that metric calculated, we will re-sort our potential project list from highest to lowest impact/effort ratio, then get to work on the 3 highest ranking projects:\n\nStep 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\nIn our current scenario, we actually don’t have any 1-ranked effort projects, so we will skip this step.\n\nWe have built a culture that usually attacks these opportunities the second they present themselves, so there is nothing glaringly easy to work on.\n\nStep 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\nSo for us, the first one is just a “decision.”\n\nWe are going to go much bigger for this webinar and risk more to get more people to show up. We’re going to run a VIP version that hopefully lets us get a good chunk of ad spend back before the event that de-risks things by 30-50% before we even begin.\n\nNext we’re going to build a low-ticket $27 product funnel.\n\nThis will let us:\n\n• Run a low-ticket cold funnel\n\n• Have an asset to create VIP webinars\n\n• And have a new product that our organic audience can buy to reengage them\n\nThis will take significant amounts of team effort, but our hypothesis is that effort is worth it.\n\nLastly we’re going to invest in writing better emails.\n\nTo do that, we need to:\n\n• Diversify the types of emails we send\n\n• Implement more story-driven narrative-type emails that build more emotional resonance with us/our story\n\n• And provide even more high-quality education that builds reader trusts and makes applying to PGA more likely\n\nFrom here the steps/rules start to diverge based on whether you are a small-team/solo operator or have a more fleshed out team.\n\nStep 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\nHave a small team or operate solo?\n\nYou are going to have to block time to attack these while continuing to run all the other things you have going on in the business. If you want to grow, you have to do all the work you’re currently doing to fulfill + allocate extra effort toward the things that help you grow.\n\nHave a larger team, department heads, or multiple profit centers within the business?\n\nYou can run this exercise at the department level that helps each profit center work on the profit-maximizing things. Then you will have each of your individual contributors/department heads be the ones who are responsible for doing the actual execution of these initiatives.\n\nStep 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nFrom here, we’re going to attack the initiatives we’ve chosen until they are complete/up and running.\n\nThen we simply repeat this exercise when setting new goals.\n\nIn our case, part of our goals just require us to invest more money into paid ads. So there’s a world where, once we do the first two initiatives, all we have to do is increase our ad spend and then continue to do the things we’re doing.\n\nAt that point, reaching our goals likely becomes an efficiency problem, which we would find by repeating the exercise.\n\nThen, we repeat this exercise every couple weeks/months/quarters for as long as we are in business.\n\nAnd that’s a wrap!\n\nHere’s a quick recap of my exact approach to setting goals:\n\n• Step 0: Understand goals are just math\n\n• Step 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\n• Step 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\n• Step 3: Quantify the gap between your goal and your current\n\n• Step 4: Identify if your bottleneck is volume or efficiency\n\n• Step 5: Brain dump list of all ways to solve that bottleneck\n\n• Step 6: Rank each item on Impact (1-5) and Effort (1-5)\n\n• Step 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\n• Step 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\n• Step 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\n• Step 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nGive this a try and report

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9. Enjoy the ride\n\nI can look back and smile on every single moment of my 4 years as an entrepreneur, even though I was not smiling in the moment.\n\nWhich means you can take the same approach now, no matter how challenging something is.\n\nEvery problem you face & overcome is writing a story you will talk about for the rest of your life. Lighten up and release the grip, it’s not as serious as you’re making it. You can indeed smile through times when everything feels like it’s going to break.\n\nSo if at any time you’re cursing the world, frustrated to no end, running on fumes, or questioning if any of this is worth it in the first place, just jump forward to future you who would do ANYTHING to trade places back to where you are now.","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":1,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,278],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","quoted_status_id_str":"1988346262236619023","quoted_status_permalink":{"url":"https://t.co/EeHV1DMfBC","expanded":"https://twitter.com/Nicolascole77/status/1988346262236619023","display":"x.com/Nicolascole77/…"},"retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1988347821850853885","view_count":10610,"bookmark_count":10,"created_at":1762894037000,"favorite_count":27,"quote_count":0,"reply_count":5,"retweet_count":2,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1988347821850853885","full_text":"When

years ago I quit my full-time job on Wall Street\n\nHere is the exact series of events & realizations I had along the way:\n\n1. Got my dream job as a hedge fund trader, $120k/year my first year at age 22, thought I would want to do it forever\n\n2. 6 months in, realized that the people 15 years ahead of me did not live lives I wanted to live\n\n3. Realized I needed to find a way to passively find other opportunities while slowly plotting my escape\n\nThis led me to 𝕏 where I started following people talking about online business\n\n4. Realized I was going to have to enter a period of extreme intensity as I had to be at my desk in the office every day by 7 AM\n\nBegan waking up at 4:30 AM every day for a year, spent the first 2 hours of every day reading books on writing & business\n\n5. COVID hit, which meant I got to start working from home\n\nSuddenly realized that I did about 2 hours of actual work per day at my job, the rest was just pretending to work since everyone could see my screen\n\nQuickly created checklists for myself to streamline the actual things I was responsible for doing every day. Began to reinvest all the extra time into learning & writing\n\n6. Throughout 2020, I wrote a weekly newsletter called Dickie’s Digest\n\nAll I did was summarize podcasts & books I was reading & listening to that week as a forcing function to learn\n\nEvery Sunday, I would spend 4-5 hours writing my newsletter\n\nAfter 32 editions, I had about 200 subscribers\n\nSo I was ready to give up writing entirely\n\n7. September 2020, I decided to go from writing a weekly newsletter to writing a daily Atomic Essay or thread on 𝕏\n\nI wrote and published something every day for 30 days in a row\n\nDay 28, my first thread went viral\n\nOvernight I went from 200 newsletter subscribers to 1400 and from 250 𝕏 followers to 2000\n\n8. That viral thread ended up in the hands of a legendary copywriter, Craig Clemens\n\nHe DM’d me asking if I would do something similar for him, a distillation of his best ideas that were spread all over the internet across various blog posts & keynote speeches\n\nI accepted, and said I would do it for free\n\n9. I spent the weekend immersing myself in his worldview\n\nI listened to 10 keynotes and read at least 30 articles\n\nI packaged it all up nicely into 2 separate book outlines - one distilling his thoughts on copywriting. The other his thoughts on life. \n\nI sent it over to him and he was floored\n\nHis assistant wired me $5,000 and I thought it was a typo\n\nMy brain was completely broken that the words I wrote on the internet led me to getting paid that much\n\nI didn’t know it at the time, but I had accidentally stumbled into the world of ghostwriting \n\n10. That ghostwriting client sent a cold email connecting me with my now business partner Nicolas Cole\n\nThe email started saying “Not sure why, but I think you two should know each other. I’ll let you two take it from here”\n\nCole and I connected and instantly clicked\n\nBoth former gamers & former athletes who loved writing on the internet\n\n11. That 30-day personal writing challenge changed my life\n\nIt led me to meet tons of people I looked up to and generated my first $5,000 on the internet\n\nI knew I wanted to keep writing, but I also knew it would be hard to do it alone\n\nSo I tweeted out a simple tweet asking if anyone would like to join me for a 30-day writing challenge called Ship 30 for 30\n\nThe tweet blew up and had hundreds of replies\n\nI spun up a landing page and charged anyone who wanted to join $50 to enter, but I promised to give them their money back if they wrote all 30 days\n\n7 days later, there were 50 of us in Slack channel writing & publishing daily Atomic Essays\n\n12. I held 1:1 interviews with basically everyone in that cohort\n\nI wanted to know what they liked, what they didn’t like, why they joined, and what they would change if they could\n\nI collected testimonials from as many people as possible\n\nI wired back the money to anyone who wanted it, but most told me to keep it, so I donated it\n\n13. Now it was November 2020—cohort-based courses were exploding in popularity \n\nEveryone was working from home and armed with stimulus checks\n\nSo I decided to make the next cohort $99, and you didn’t get your money back\n\nI was terrified to charge something, but I did it anyway\n\nI fired off the launch email and the Stripe notifications started to pour in\n\n14. Fast forward to January 2021, and Ship 30 was starting to accelerate in popularity\n\nCole was a part of that cohort and gave a few guest Office Hours sessions to talk about his writing frameworks\n\nI quickly realized there was no way I was going to build a successful business just focused around building a writing habit & publishing your first piece of writing\n\nThere needed to be a full-blown curriculum and structure\n\nSo we partnered up 50/50 and began to build Ship 30 into the internet’s fastest-growing cohort-based course\n\n15. The next 12 months were the most intense 12 months of my life\n\nI woke up every day at 4:30 AM, worked out, then wrote for 3 hours\n\nI then worked a full day (remotely) at my full-time job, bouncing between Slack (where we hosted our cohort) and Microsoft Teams (where I had to communicate with my team internally)\n\nI scheduled all of our cohort calls for Friday at 12 PM because we had an internal policy at work that meetings were not allowed on Friday after that time\n\n16. We obsessed over making Ship 30 an incredible experience\n\nAt just $249, we had hundreds and hundreds of people sign up for a cohort every ~8 weeks. \n\nEvery cohort we improved something:\n\nBetter content\nBetter curriculum\nBetter accountability\n\nWe were obsessed with creating an experience people couldn’t help but tell their friends about\n\n17. Throughout the year, Ship 30 continued to accelerate, and so did my writing on 𝕏\n\nI wrote 3-5 tweets per day + 2 high-quality threads per week\n\nEvery tweet drove to our email list where we wrote educational emails 2x per week with a CTA to join the next cohort of Ship 30\n\nOne platform (𝕏)\nOne product (Ship 30)\nOne avatar (people who wanted to start writing online)\n\n18. And by the end of 2021, we crossed $1,000,000 in total revenue\n\nMy personal take home in 2021 was a little over $600,000\n$180k of that was from my full-time job\nThe other $420k was from Ship 30\n\nI had nearly tripled my W2 income from a side hustle in about 30 months since realizing that I needed to leave that job\n\n19. February 2022 rolls around and my annual bonus hits my bank account\n\nAt this point, it was a bigger financial risk for me to stay at my job than it was to leave\n\nBut I was absolutely terrified\n\nI thought Ship 30 might just be a flash in the pan\n\nI was walking away from a guaranteed $180k/year job that I worked tirelessly throughout college to unlock\n\nMy parents thought I was crazy\n\nHell, I thought I was crazy\n\nI have pages and pages of journal entries tirelessly weighing the pros & cons, modeling every scenario, reflecting as my future self, and more\n\nI was so incredibly risk averse that I almost said I had to prove it again in 2022 before I could finally pull the trigger\n\n20. But in the middle of February, I was on a walk with Cole going back and forth on whether I should quit\n\nI cannot remember the exact thing he said, but something clicked\n\nI think it was something along the lines of what decision would the person I want to become make?\n\nThat made the answer clear\n\nI hung up on him (literally) and walked inside my house, called my boss, and let him know I was putting in my 4 weeks of notice and was going to build a business on my own\n\n21. That was a little over 3 years ago now. Since then we’ve gone on to build a thriving, successful business\n\nThe hedge fund I used to work for ended up closing, and I likely would have been laid off in 2024 because of it. I am grateful every day that I ended up taking that bet on myself\n\nBut I’m also extremely grateful that I proceeded in such a risk-averse way.\n\nI made zero rushed decisions\nI was patient & mitigated my downside\n\nAnd along the way, I was able to put together a story like this one that can hopefully provide value or a roadmap to someone in a similar situation","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,281],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1978582500654948543","view_count":15460,"bookmark_count":115,"created_at":1760565803000,"favorite_count":199,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":37,"retweet_count":17,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1978582500654948543","full_text":"Current infinite pursuits:\n\n1.

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9. Enjoy the ride\n\nI can look back and smile on every single moment of my 4 years as an entrepreneur, even though I was not smiling in the moment.\n\nWhich means you can take the same approach now, no matter how challenging something is.\n\nEvery problem you face & overcome is writing a story you will talk about for the rest of your life. Lighten up and release the grip, it’s not as serious as you’re making it.

the last ~18 months, I’ve been in build & manage mode. During that time, our team has grown from 12 to over 30 members.\n\nNow, the next constraint keeping our business from growing to the next level is generating more traffic & attention.\n\nIt will require entering a new season of increased creative output.\n\nHere are the 9 daily principles I'm using to get there:\n\nPrinciple #1: Have a defined vehicle for output\n\nBefore you can “increase your creative output,” you need to get specific on what that means.\n\n• What, specifically, are you going to commit to creating?\n\n• How often are you going to create it?\n\n• Where are you going to publish it?\n\nDo you have to stick with this cadence forever? No.\n\nBut you need some kind of commitment from the beginning.\n\nSo for me, that commitment is going to be publishing a weekly newsletter.\n\nThis is the same cadence I set for myself back in the beginning of 2020 when I first started writing online.\n\nUsing the Lean Writing method, I can turn this one newsletter into:\n\n• A weekly long-form YouTube video \n• 5-10 pieces of short-form content \n• 1-2 pieces of medium-form text content \n• 5-10 Instagram Reels\n\nPrinciple #2: Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\nYou have to create your own set of Sacred Hours you can fully commit to without interruption.\n\nFor me, that’s going to be the first 4 hours of the day.\n\nUsually 7 AM to 11 AM.\n\nThis 4-hour block usually leads to about 3 hours of actual writing time, broken up into two 90-minute blocks separated by a short walk.\n\nI find that trying to write for any longer leads to significantly less output over week-long periods.\n\nIf I can knock out two of these blocks in a day, it’s a huge win.\n\nNow, am I going to be super rigid about this? Absolutely not.\n\nSome days I’ll only write for an hour.\n\nOther days I’ll write for six hours.\n\nWhat matters is I have a default time that I commit to producing as many days as possible.\n\nPrinciple #3: Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\nThis may be the most important factor in maintaining your creative motivation & inspiration.\n\nIf you’re working in a dark space, or an office you don’t like, or in an uncomfortable cafe chair, or with too much noise, you won’t be excited to write.\n\nHowever, if you’re excited by the idea of where you work, you’re much more likely to spend time there.\n\nFor me, that means spending my creative time working outside of the house:\n\n• I love working outside\n\n• I love the ~10-minute walking ritual to my favorite cafe\n\n• I love the ability to drop whatever I’m working on & immediately take a walk\n\nSo at this point you’ve figured out what type of writing you will produce, when you’ll write, and where you’ll write.\n\nIn the next step we figure out what to write.\n\nPrinciple #4: Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\nYour subconscious is incredibly good at solving problems while you sleep.\n\nBut most people never tap into this because of how their evenings go.\n\nIf you go to bed doomscrolling, or consuming tons of information, or with tons of open loops, your brain is unsure what to work on.\n\nSo to prevent this overwhelm & unlock your subconscious brainpower, try this simple end-of-day brain dump routine:\n\n1. During the last few minutes before bed, take out your notebook\n\n2. Brain dump 5-10 bullet points on anything you learned that day or anything that’s on your mind to close the loop or revisit tomorrow\n\n3. Then brain dump another 5-10 bullet points on what you want to work on during your deep work session the next day\n\nThen, shut your notebook and go to sleep.\n\nPrinciple #5: Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\nIf you’re like me, your most excited mornings come when you wake up with a completely clear calendar.\n\nMy output on these days is 50-100% higher:\n\n• I have full freedom over how I will work that day\n• I have zero looming open loops I need to address later\n• I can go fully offline & disappear into deep work\n\nBut this requires an intentional process to maximize your meeting-free blocks:\n\n• Try to turn as many meetings asynchronous as possible\n\n• If a meeting is high-leverage, batch it to one day of the week\n\n• Be rigid in upholding your meeting rules\n\nAnd I put together a simple script you can use whenever someone wants to schedule a meeting:\n\n\"Hey [name], I’m currently heads down in a writing mode keeping a clear calendar on X-Y days of the week. But I can do A time or B time on ABC date if that works for you? Otherwise, happy to jam async if it’s more urgent.\"\n\nNow let’s dig into a couple more tactics that you may find helpful.\n\nPrinciple #6: Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\nYour phone is a creative vampire.\n\nEven if you’re not looking at it, it still whispers at you if it’s anywhere close.\n\nFor me, I’ve built my workflow around writing at a cafe with my phone still at home:\n\n• I do all of my writing on my iPad that doesn’t have any social media apps installed\n\n• I start all of my writing sessions with a handwritten brain dump to get the juices going\n\n• And I’ve added Apple Pay to my Garmin which means I can live as if I had my phone on me without it anywhere nearby\n\nIt’s amazing how much more creative you are when you eliminate distraction AND give yourself a vehicle to capture that inspiration by hand.\n\nPrinciple #7: Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\nFor you to stick with this new writing cadence, you need positive reinforcement.\n\nAnd the easiest way to do that?\n\nLook at charts that only go up.\n\nFor me, this will be:\n\n• Total newsletters published \n• Total newsletter views \n• Total newsletter likes\n\nThese metrics will always trend up as long as you keep writing.\n\nPrinciple #8: Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\nThe thing you most want to avoid is doomscrolling any given platform.\n\nThis immediately turns into creative overwhelm. The algorithm will show you so much content that you'll be paralyzed by all the opportunities.\n\nFor me, I'm going to stick to long-form YouTube and Substack creators for inspiration:\n\n• I’ll focus on studying the way they write, package, create, and iterate\n\n• I’ll use their titles & subject lines as inspiration for ideas I can package in my own way\n\n• I’ll look back at their first 50 videos & newsletters to see how they got started so I don’t compare my step 3 or 4 to someone else’s step 10\n\nThis should lead to a steady drop in total volume of content consumption.\n\nBut an increase in depth.\n\nAnd that’s where your best ideas will come from as your brain has space to synthesize.\n\nPrinciple #9: Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nIncreasing creative output has to be your first priority.\n\n• It has to be the thing you schedule in first \n• It has to be the thing you go to bed thinking about \n• It has to be the thing you wake up excited to work on\n\nIf you’re not in a creative season, that’s fine.\nBut don’t pretend to be.\n\nDon’t expect yourself to achieve high levels of output or deep creative clarity if you’re spread thin across dozens of different projects and initiatives.\n\nNot every season is a creative season.\n\nI haven’t been in one for roughly 18 months.\n\nBut as I enter into this one, it’s my number one focus.\n\nWhich means ruthlessly pruning my days of everything else.\n\nAaaand that’s it.\n\nTo recap all 9 principles:\n\n1. Have a defined vehicle for output\n\n2. Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\n3. Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\n4. Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\n5. Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\n6. Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\n7. Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\n8. Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\n9. Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nGive each of these a try, take what works and discard what doesn’t.\n\nIf you have any questions on a specific principle, leave a comment to let me know!","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,81],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983601820237734305","view_count":11670,"bookmark_count":29,"created_at":1761762502000,"favorite_count":177,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":65,"retweet_count":14,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983601820237734305","full_text":"You are 30 days of daily writing away from a completely different life trajectory","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,260],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983655959403610523","view_count":12630,"bookmark_count":84,"created_at":1761775409000,"favorite_count":280,"quote_count":6,"reply_count":115,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983655959403610523","full_text":"Your life will get a lot easier when you view everything as a skill issue\n\nOut of shape?

works, let’s walk through a real example:\n\nOur front-end sales process within our Premium Ghostwriting Academy.\n\nStep 0: Understand goals are just math\n\nThis is the most important insight to understand when setting goals in your business.\n\nThe gap between where you are and where you want to be is one number. That number is made up by an equation that has input metrics + efficiency metrics.\n\nYour job is to analyze that equation and find out the part of the equation that needs fixing.\n\nThe part that needs fixing will create a new demand of you—some kind of new initiative you’re not currently doing but is required.\n\nThose demands will force actions that you need to work on every day until those demands are met & the equation looks like you want.\n\nThat’s it.\n\nEverything that is not improving your equation is a distraction.\n\nAnd so most of business goal setting is around getting extremely clear on the gap, the demands it creates, the actions that fulfill those demands, and then ignoring everything else and staying focused on those few critical actions.\n\nLet’s walk through what that looks like.\n\nStep 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\nWe want to hit $500k of new front end cash collected for PGA.\n\nStep 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\nWe did $330k of front end new cash collected last month.\n\nStep 3: Quantify the gap between goal & current\n\nWe are $170k short of our goal.\n\nStep 4: Identify if you have a volume or efficiency bottleneck\n\nWe have an efficiency bottleneck if we could reach our goal by more efficiently converting the number of leads coming in.\n\nWe have a volume bottleneck if we are at KPI on all of our efficiency metrics and simply need more people coming through.\n\nSo for our business, we are at “good enough” KPI to scale based on all of our efficiency metrics.\n\nMarketing efficiency:\n\n• Landing page conversion: 35%\n• % of leads who fill out an app: ~45%\n• % of apps that we keep on the calendar: 20%\n• Lead to kept call ratio: ~8%\n\nAll of these are good enough that they are not worth overly optimizing, especially given how much of it comes from organic.\n\nSales efficiency:\n\n• 75% show rate\n• 75% cash collected\n• 22% close rate @ $6.8k price point\n• = $800 per booked call on average\n\nBoth of our efficiency ratios for sales & marketing are in good shape.\n\nThis means we need to turn all of our attention toward volume.\n\nWe can now calculate the exact amount of additional volume we need to drive.\n\n• $170k cash collected short\n• @ $800 per booked call average cash collected\n• = 212 additional calls per month\n• = 9 more calls per day or 63 more calls per week\n\nWe currently book around 400 calls per month, so we need to raise that number to 600.\n\nSo, how do we do that?\n\nStep 5: Brainstorm all the ways you can fix that bottleneck\n\nIf we needed to book 212 more calls, what are all the things we could do?\n\nThe best way to approach this is through the “more/better/new” framework.\n\nFirst, look at all the places you’re currently generating traffic and make a list of all the places you could do “more.”\n\nThis is your highest risk-adjusted return and return on effort.\n\nHere’s some places we could do “more”:\n\n• More viral drops on LinkedIn? Already at 1x per week, likely capped out.\n\n• More posting on Instagram? Posting 2x per day, capped out.\n\n• More emails? Sending daily email, capped out.\n\n• More YouTube videos? Opportunity here.\n\nSo from that list, we have 2 clear solutions:\n\n1. Post more YouTube videos\n\n2. Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk\n\nNow what about “better?”\n\nWe want to look at all the places we’re currently posting and ask if there are any volume-generating areas that we could do things better to get more out of the current slots we’re using.\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn? Maybe.\n• Better posts on Instagram? Maybe.\n• Better emails? Likely some result.\n• Better YouTube videos? Not posting right now so need to do more first.\n\nSo from that list we have:\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Better posts on Instagram.\n• Better emails.\n\nLastly we want to think about “new.”\n\nWhat are all the things we aren’t currently doing that we think could help us generate more calls?\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\n• Launch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge → Basically a webinar on steroids.\n\nAlright now we have a list of all the things we could do.\n\nLet’s sort them into one list:\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\nLaunch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge.\n• Start making better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Start making better posts on Instagram.\n• Start writing better emails.\n• Post more YouTube videos.\n• Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk.\n\nGreat—we have a good mix of things we could do more of, things we could do better, and new things we need to do.\n\nNow let’s stack rank these to see which are worth doing.\n\nFor each of these initiatives, we need to understand we have limited resources and can only tackle so many.\n\nSo we want to choose the ones that have the highest likelihood of getting us closer to our 212 additional booked calls goal relative to the amount of effort it takes.\n\nWe are going to rank them across two dimensions:\n\n1. Impact (1-5). 5 being we think it has the potential to book an additional 200 calls if we JUST did that thing, 1 being it’s only likely to book a handful more calls.\n\n2. Effort (1-5). 5 being this would be extremely resource intensive with the entire team / lots of time & effort deployed on it, 1 being a very quick win you could just “do” or “decide on” in under an hour.\n\nOnce we’ve ranked them on these two dimensions, we’re going to calculate an “Impact/Effort Ratio” that will be our guiding metric for choosing what to work on.\n\nWith that metric calculated, we will re-sort our potential project list from highest to lowest impact/effort ratio, then get to work on the 3 highest ranking projects:\n\nStep 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\nIn our current scenario, we actually don’t have any 1-ranked effort projects, so we will skip this step.\n\nWe have built a culture that usually attacks these opportunities the second they present themselves, so there is nothing glaringly easy to work on.\n\nStep 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\nSo for us, the first one is just a “decision.”\n\nWe are going to go much bigger for this webinar and risk more to get more people to show up. We’re going to run a VIP version that hopefully lets us get a good chunk of ad spend back before the event that de-risks things by 30-50% before we even begin.\n\nNext we’re going to build a low-ticket $27 product funnel.\n\nThis will let us:\n\n• Run a low-ticket cold funnel\n\n• Have an asset to create VIP webinars\n\n• And have a new product that our organic audience can buy to reengage them\n\nThis will take significant amounts of team effort, but our hypothesis is that effort is worth it.\n\nLastly we’re going to invest in writing better emails.\n\nTo do that, we need to:\n\n• Diversify the types of emails we send\n\n• Implement more story-driven narrative-type emails that build more emotional resonance with us/our story\n\n• And provide even more high-quality education that builds reader trusts and makes applying to PGA more likely\n\nFrom here the steps/rules start to diverge based on whether you are a small-team/solo operator or have a more fleshed out team.\n\nStep 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\nHave a small team or operate solo?\n\nYou are going to have to block time to attack these while continuing to run all the other things you have going on in the business. If you want to grow, you have to do all the work you’re currently doing to fulfill + allocate extra effort toward the things that help you grow.\n\nHave a larger team, department heads, or multiple profit centers within the business?\n\nYou can run this exercise at the department level that helps each profit center work on the profit-maximizing things. Then you will have each of your individual contributors/department heads be the ones who are responsible for doing the actual execution of these initiatives.\n\nStep 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nFrom here, we’re going to attack the initiatives we’ve chosen until they are complete/up and running.\n\nThen we simply repeat this exercise when setting new goals.\n\nIn our case, part of our goals just require us to invest more money into paid ads. So there’s a world where, once we do the first two initiatives, all we have to do is increase our ad spend and then continue to do the things we’re doing.\n\nAt that point, reaching our goals likely becomes an efficiency problem, which we would find by repeating the exercise.\n\nThen, we repeat this exercise every couple weeks/months/quarters for as long as we are in business.\n\nAnd that’s a wrap!\n\nHere’s a quick recap of my exact approach to setting goals:\n\n• Step 0: Understand goals are just math\n\n• Step 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\n• Step 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\n• Step 3: Quantify the gap between your goal and your current\n\n• Step 4: Identify if your bottleneck is volume or efficiency\n\n• Step 5: Brain dump list of all ways to solve that bottleneck\n\n• Step 6: Rank each item on Impact (1-5) and Effort (1-5)\n\n• Step 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\n• Step 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\n• Step 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\n• Step 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nGive this a try and report back.","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,150],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1985791229456498930","view_count":10980,"bookmark_count":19,"created_at":1762284497000,"favorite_count":204,"quote_count":3,"reply_count":84,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1985791229456498930","full_text":"The

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9. Enjoy the ride\n\nI can look back and smile on every single moment of my 4 years as an entrepreneur, even though I was not smiling in the moment.\n\nWhich means you can take the same approach now, no matter how challenging something is.\n\nEvery problem you face & overcome is writing a story you will talk about for the rest of your life. Lighten up and release the grip, it’s not as serious as you’re making it.

years ago I quit my full-time job on Wall Street\n\nHere is the exact series of events & realizations I had along the way:\n\n1. Got my dream job as a hedge fund trader, $120k/year my first year at age 22, thought I would want to do it forever\n\n2. 6 months in, realized that the people 15 years ahead of me did not live lives I wanted to live\n\n3. Realized I needed to find a way to passively find other opportunities while slowly plotting my escape\n\nThis led me to 𝕏 where I started following people talking about online business\n\n4. Realized I was going to have to enter a period of extreme intensity as I had to be at my desk in the office every day by 7 AM\n\nBegan waking up at 4:30 AM every day for a year, spent the first 2 hours of every day reading books on writing & business\n\n5. COVID hit, which meant I got to start working from home\n\nSuddenly realized that I did about 2 hours of actual work per day at my job, the rest was just pretending to work since everyone could see my screen\n\nQuickly created checklists for myself to streamline the actual things I was responsible for doing every day. Began to reinvest all the extra time into learning & writing\n\n6. Throughout 2020, I wrote a weekly newsletter called Dickie’s Digest\n\nAll I did was summarize podcasts & books I was reading & listening to that week as a forcing function to learn\n\nEvery Sunday, I would spend 4-5 hours writing my newsletter\n\nAfter 32 editions, I had about 200 subscribers\n\nSo I was ready to give up writing entirely\n\n7. September 2020, I decided to go from writing a weekly newsletter to writing a daily Atomic Essay or thread on 𝕏\n\nI wrote and published something every day for 30 days in a row\n\nDay 28, my first thread went viral\n\nOvernight I went from 200 newsletter subscribers to 1400 and from 250 𝕏 followers to 2000\n\n8. That viral thread ended up in the hands of a legendary copywriter, Craig Clemens\n\nHe DM’d me asking if I would do something similar for him, a distillation of his best ideas that were spread all over the internet across various blog posts & keynote speeches\n\nI accepted, and said I would do it for free\n\n9. I spent the weekend immersing myself in his worldview\n\nI listened to 10 keynotes and read at least 30 articles\n\nI packaged it all up nicely into 2 separate book outlines - one distilling his thoughts on copywriting. The other his thoughts on life. \n\nI sent it over to him and he was floored\n\nHis assistant wired me $5,000 and I thought it was a typo\n\nMy brain was completely broken that the words I wrote on the internet led me to getting paid that much\n\nI didn’t know it at the time, but I had accidentally stumbled into the world of ghostwriting \n\n10. That ghostwriting client sent a cold email connecting me with my now business partner Nicolas Cole\n\nThe email started saying “Not sure why, but I think you two should know each other. I’ll let you two take it from here”\n\nCole and I connected and instantly clicked\n\nBoth former gamers & former athletes who loved writing on the internet\n\n11. That 30-day personal writing challenge changed my life\n\nIt led me to meet tons of people I looked up to and generated my first $5,000 on the internet\n\nI knew I wanted to keep writing, but I also knew it would be hard to do it alone\n\nSo I tweeted out a simple tweet asking if anyone would like to join me for a 30-day writing challenge called Ship 30 for 30\n\nThe tweet blew up and had hundreds of replies\n\nI spun up a landing page and charged anyone who wanted to join $50 to enter, but I promised to give them their money back if they wrote all 30 days\n\n7 days later, there were 50 of us in Slack channel writing & publishing daily Atomic Essays\n\n12. I held 1:1 interviews with basically everyone in that cohort\n\nI wanted to know what they liked, what they didn’t like, why they joined, and what they would change if they could\n\nI collected testimonials from as many people as possible\n\nI wired back the money to anyone who wanted it, but most told me to keep it, so I donated it\n\n13. Now it was November 2020—cohort-based courses were exploding in popularity \n\nEveryone was working from home and armed with stimulus checks\n\nSo I decided to make the next cohort $99, and you didn’t get your money back\n\nI was terrified to charge something, but I did it anyway\n\nI fired off the launch email and the Stripe notifications started to pour in\n\n14. Fast forward to January 2021, and Ship 30 was starting to accelerate in popularity\n\nCole was a part of that cohort and gave a few guest Office Hours sessions to talk about his writing frameworks\n\nI quickly realized there was no way I was going to build a successful business just focused around building a writing habit & publishing your first piece of writing\n\nThere needed to be a full-blown curriculum and structure\n\nSo we partnered up 50/50 and began to build Ship 30 into the internet’s fastest-growing cohort-based course\n\n15. The next 12 months were the most intense 12 months of my life\n\nI woke up every day at 4:30 AM, worked out, then wrote for 3 hours\n\nI then worked a full day (remotely) at my full-time job, bouncing between Slack (where we hosted our cohort) and Microsoft Teams (where I had to communicate with my team internally)\n\nI scheduled all of our cohort calls for Friday at 12 PM because we had an internal policy at work that meetings were not allowed on Friday after that time\n\n16. We obsessed over making Ship 30 an incredible experience\n\nAt just $249, we had hundreds and hundreds of people sign up for a cohort every ~8 weeks. \n\nEvery cohort we improved something:\n\nBetter content\nBetter curriculum\nBetter accountability\n\nWe were obsessed with creating an experience people couldn’t help but tell their friends about\n\n17. Throughout the year, Ship 30 continued to accelerate, and so did my writing on 𝕏\n\nI wrote 3-5 tweets per day + 2 high-quality threads per week\n\nEvery tweet drove to our email list where we wrote educational emails 2x per week with a CTA to join the next cohort of Ship 30\n\nOne platform (𝕏)\nOne product (Ship 30)\nOne avatar (people who wanted to start writing online)\n\n18. And by the end of 2021, we crossed $1,000,000 in total revenue\n\nMy personal take home in 2021 was a little over $600,000\n$180k of that was from my full-time job\nThe other $420k was from Ship 30\n\nI had nearly tripled my W2 income from a side hustle in about 30 months since realizing that I needed to leave that job\n\n19. February 2022 rolls around and my annual bonus hits my bank account\n\nAt this point, it was a bigger financial risk for me to stay at my job than it was to leave\n\nBut I was absolutely terrified\n\nI thought Ship 30 might just be a flash in the pan\n\nI was walking away from a guaranteed $180k/year job that I worked tirelessly throughout college to unlock\n\nMy parents thought I was crazy\n\nHell, I thought I was crazy\n\nI have pages and pages of journal entries tirelessly weighing the pros & cons, modeling every scenario, reflecting as my future self, and more\n\nI was so incredibly risk averse that I almost said I had to prove it again in 2022 before I could finally pull the trigger\n\n20. But in the middle of February, I was on a walk with Cole going back and forth on whether I should quit\n\nI cannot remember the exact thing he said, but something clicked\n\nI think it was something along the lines of what decision would the person I want to become make?\n\nThat made the answer clear\n\nI hung up on him (literally) and walked inside my house, called my boss, and let him know I was putting in my 4 weeks of notice and was going to build a business on my own\n\n21. That was a little over 3 years ago now. Since then we’ve gone on to build a thriving, successful business\n\nThe hedge fund I used to work for ended up closing, and I likely would have been laid off in 2024 because of it. I am grateful every day that I ended up taking that bet on myself\n\nBut I’m also extremely grateful that I proceeded in such a risk-averse way.\n\nI made zero rushed decisions\nI was patient & mitigated my downside\n\nAnd along the way, I was able to put together a story like this one that can hopefully provide value or a roadmap to someone in a similar situation","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,281],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1978582500654948543","view_count":15460,"bookmark_count":115,"created_at":1760565803000,"favorite_count":199,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":37,"retweet_count":17,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1978582500654948543","full_text":"Current infinite pursuits:\n\n1.

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9.

the last ~18 months, I’ve been in build & manage mode. During that time, our team has grown from 12 to over 30 members.\n\nNow, the next constraint keeping our business from growing to the next level is generating more traffic & attention.\n\nIt will require entering a new season of increased creative output.\n\nHere are the 9 daily principles I'm using to get there:\n\nPrinciple #1: Have a defined vehicle for output\n\nBefore you can “increase your creative output,” you need to get specific on what that means.\n\n• What, specifically, are you going to commit to creating?\n\n• How often are you going to create it?\n\n• Where are you going to publish it?\n\nDo you have to stick with this cadence forever? No.\n\nBut you need some kind of commitment from the beginning.\n\nSo for me, that commitment is going to be publishing a weekly newsletter.\n\nThis is the same cadence I set for myself back in the beginning of 2020 when I first started writing online.\n\nUsing the Lean Writing method, I can turn this one newsletter into:\n\n• A weekly long-form YouTube video \n• 5-10 pieces of short-form content \n• 1-2 pieces of medium-form text content \n• 5-10 Instagram Reels\n\nPrinciple #2: Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\nYou have to create your own set of Sacred Hours you can fully commit to without interruption.\n\nFor me, that’s going to be the first 4 hours of the day.\n\nUsually 7 AM to 11 AM.\n\nThis 4-hour block usually leads to about 3 hours of actual writing time, broken up into two 90-minute blocks separated by a short walk.\n\nI find that trying to write for any longer leads to significantly less output over week-long periods.\n\nIf I can knock out two of these blocks in a day, it’s a huge win.\n\nNow, am I going to be super rigid about this? Absolutely not.\n\nSome days I’ll only write for an hour.\n\nOther days I’ll write for six hours.\n\nWhat matters is I have a default time that I commit to producing as many days as possible.\n\nPrinciple #3: Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\nThis may be the most important factor in maintaining your creative motivation & inspiration.\n\nIf you’re working in a dark space, or an office you don’t like, or in an uncomfortable cafe chair, or with too much noise, you won’t be excited to write.\n\nHowever, if you’re excited by the idea of where you work, you’re much more likely to spend time there.\n\nFor me, that means spending my creative time working outside of the house:\n\n• I love working outside\n\n• I love the ~10-minute walking ritual to my favorite cafe\n\n• I love the ability to drop whatever I’m working on & immediately take a walk\n\nSo at this point you’ve figured out what type of writing you will produce, when you’ll write, and where you’ll write.\n\nIn the next step we figure out what to write.\n\nPrinciple #4: Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\nYour subconscious is incredibly good at solving problems while you sleep.\n\nBut most people never tap into this because of how their evenings go.\n\nIf you go to bed doomscrolling, or consuming tons of information, or with tons of open loops, your brain is unsure what to work on.\n\nSo to prevent this overwhelm & unlock your subconscious brainpower, try this simple end-of-day brain dump routine:\n\n1. During the last few minutes before bed, take out your notebook\n\n2. Brain dump 5-10 bullet points on anything you learned that day or anything that’s on your mind to close the loop or revisit tomorrow\n\n3. Then brain dump another 5-10 bullet points on what you want to work on during your deep work session the next day\n\nThen, shut your notebook and go to sleep.\n\nPrinciple #5: Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\nIf you’re like me, your most excited mornings come when you wake up with a completely clear calendar.\n\nMy output on these days is 50-100% higher:\n\n• I have full freedom over how I will work that day\n• I have zero looming open loops I need to address later\n• I can go fully offline & disappear into deep work\n\nBut this requires an intentional process to maximize your meeting-free blocks:\n\n• Try to turn as many meetings asynchronous as possible\n\n• If a meeting is high-leverage, batch it to one day of the week\n\n• Be rigid in upholding your meeting rules\n\nAnd I put together a simple script you can use whenever someone wants to schedule a meeting:\n\n\"Hey [name], I’m currently heads down in a writing mode keeping a clear calendar on X-Y days of the week. But I can do A time or B time on ABC date if that works for you? Otherwise, happy to jam async if it’s more urgent.\"\n\nNow let’s dig into a couple more tactics that you may find helpful.\n\nPrinciple #6: Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\nYour phone is a creative vampire.\n\nEven if you’re not looking at it, it still whispers at you if it’s anywhere close.\n\nFor me, I’ve built my workflow around writing at a cafe with my phone still at home:\n\n• I do all of my writing on my iPad that doesn’t have any social media apps installed\n\n• I start all of my writing sessions with a handwritten brain dump to get the juices going\n\n• And I’ve added Apple Pay to my Garmin which means I can live as if I had my phone on me without it anywhere nearby\n\nIt’s amazing how much more creative you are when you eliminate distraction AND give yourself a vehicle to capture that inspiration by hand.\n\nPrinciple #7: Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\nFor you to stick with this new writing cadence, you need positive reinforcement.\n\nAnd the easiest way to do that?\n\nLook at charts that only go up.\n\nFor me, this will be:\n\n• Total newsletters published \n• Total newsletter views \n• Total newsletter likes\n\nThese metrics will always trend up as long as you keep writing.\n\nPrinciple #8: Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\nThe thing you most want to avoid is doomscrolling any given platform.\n\nThis immediately turns into creative overwhelm. The algorithm will show you so much content that you'll be paralyzed by all the opportunities.\n\nFor me, I'm going to stick to long-form YouTube and Substack creators for inspiration:\n\n• I’ll focus on studying the way they write, package, create, and iterate\n\n• I’ll use their titles & subject lines as inspiration for ideas I can package in my own way\n\n• I’ll look back at their first 50 videos & newsletters to see how they got started so I don’t compare my step 3 or 4 to someone else’s step 10\n\nThis should lead to a steady drop in total volume of content consumption.\n\nBut an increase in depth.\n\nAnd that’s where your best ideas will come from as your brain has space to synthesize.\n\nPrinciple #9: Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nIncreasing creative output has to be your first priority.\n\n• It has to be the thing you schedule in first \n• It has to be the thing you go to bed thinking about \n• It has to be the thing you wake up excited to work on\n\nIf you’re not in a creative season, that’s fine.\nBut don’t pretend to be.\n\nDon’t expect yourself to achieve high levels of output or deep creative clarity if you’re spread thin across dozens of different projects and initiatives.\n\nNot every season is a creative season.\n\nI haven’t been in one for roughly 18 months.\n\nBut as I enter into this one, it’s my number one focus.\n\nWhich means ruthlessly pruning my days of everything else.\n\nAaaand that’s it.\n\nTo recap all 9 principles:\n\n1. Have a defined vehicle for output\n\n2. Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\n3. Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\n4. Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\n5. Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\n6. Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\n7. Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\n8. Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\n9. Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nGive each of these a try, take what works and discard what doesn’t.\n\nIf you have any questions on a specific principle, leave a comment to let me know!","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,81],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983601820237734305","view_count":11670,"bookmark_count":29,"created_at":1761762502000,"favorite_count":177,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":65,"retweet_count":14,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983601820237734305","full_text":"You are 30 days of daily writing away from a completely different life trajectory","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,260],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983655959403610523","view_count":12630,"bookmark_count":84,"created_at":1761775409000,"favorite_count":280,"quote_count":6,"reply_count":115,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983655959403610523","full_text":"Your life will get a lot easier when you view everything as a skill issue\n\nOut of shape?

works, let’s walk through a real example:\n\nOur front-end sales process within our Premium Ghostwriting Academy.\n\nStep 0: Understand goals are just math\n\nThis is the most important insight to understand when setting goals in your business.\n\nThe gap between where you are and where you want to be is one number. That number is made up by an equation that has input metrics + efficiency metrics.\n\nYour job is to analyze that equation and find out the part of the equation that needs fixing.\n\nThe part that needs fixing will create a new demand of you—some kind of new initiative you’re not currently doing but is required.\n\nThose demands will force actions that you need to work on every day until those demands are met & the equation looks like you want.\n\nThat’s it.\n\nEverything that is not improving your equation is a distraction.\n\nAnd so most of business goal setting is around getting extremely clear on the gap, the demands it creates, the actions that fulfill those demands, and then ignoring everything else and staying focused on those few critical actions.\n\nLet’s walk through what that looks like.\n\nStep 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\nWe want to hit $500k of new front end cash collected for PGA.\n\nStep 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\nWe did $330k of front end new cash collected last month.\n\nStep 3: Quantify the gap between goal & current\n\nWe are $170k short of our goal.\n\nStep 4: Identify if you have a volume or efficiency bottleneck\n\nWe have an efficiency bottleneck if we could reach our goal by more efficiently converting the number of leads coming in.\n\nWe have a volume bottleneck if we are at KPI on all of our efficiency metrics and simply need more people coming through.\n\nSo for our business, we are at “good enough” KPI to scale based on all of our efficiency metrics.\n\nMarketing efficiency:\n\n• Landing page conversion: 35%\n• % of leads who fill out an app: ~45%\n• % of apps that we keep on the calendar: 20%\n• Lead to kept call ratio: ~8%\n\nAll of these are good enough that they are not worth overly optimizing, especially given how much of it comes from organic.\n\nSales efficiency:\n\n• 75% show rate\n• 75% cash collected\n• 22% close rate @ $6.8k price point\n• = $800 per booked call on average\n\nBoth of our efficiency ratios for sales & marketing are in good shape.\n\nThis means we need to turn all of our attention toward volume.\n\nWe can now calculate the exact amount of additional volume we need to drive.\n\n• $170k cash collected short\n• @ $800 per booked call average cash collected\n• = 212 additional calls per month\n• = 9 more calls per day or 63 more calls per week\n\nWe currently book around 400 calls per month, so we need to raise that number to 600.\n\nSo, how do we do that?\n\nStep 5: Brainstorm all the ways you can fix that bottleneck\n\nIf we needed to book 212 more calls, what are all the things we could do?\n\nThe best way to approach this is through the “more/better/new” framework.\n\nFirst, look at all the places you’re currently generating traffic and make a list of all the places you could do “more.”\n\nThis is your highest risk-adjusted return and return on effort.\n\nHere’s some places we could do “more”:\n\n• More viral drops on LinkedIn? Already at 1x per week, likely capped out.\n\n• More posting on Instagram? Posting 2x per day, capped out.\n\n• More emails? Sending daily email, capped out.\n\n• More YouTube videos? Opportunity here.\n\nSo from that list, we have 2 clear solutions:\n\n1. Post more YouTube videos\n\n2. Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk\n\nNow what about “better?”\n\nWe want to look at all the places we’re currently posting and ask if there are any volume-generating areas that we could do things better to get more out of the current slots we’re using.\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn? Maybe.\n• Better posts on Instagram? Maybe.\n• Better emails? Likely some result.\n• Better YouTube videos? Not posting right now so need to do more first.\n\nSo from that list we have:\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Better posts on Instagram.\n• Better emails.\n\nLastly we want to think about “new.”\n\nWhat are all the things we aren’t currently doing that we think could help us generate more calls?\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\n• Launch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge → Basically a webinar on steroids.\n\nAlright now we have a list of all the things we could do.\n\nLet’s sort them into one list:\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\nLaunch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge.\n• Start making better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Start making better posts on Instagram.\n• Start writing better emails.\n• Post more YouTube videos.\n• Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk.\n\nGreat—we have a good mix of things we could do more of, things we could do better, and new things we need to do.\n\nNow let’s stack rank these to see which are worth doing.\n\nFor each of these initiatives, we need to understand we have limited resources and can only tackle so many.\n\nSo we want to choose the ones that have the highest likelihood of getting us closer to our 212 additional booked calls goal relative to the amount of effort it takes.\n\nWe are going to rank them across two dimensions:\n\n1. Impact (1-5). 5 being we think it has the potential to book an additional 200 calls if we JUST did that thing, 1 being it’s only likely to book a handful more calls.\n\n2. Effort (1-5). 5 being this would be extremely resource intensive with the entire team / lots of time & effort deployed on it, 1 being a very quick win you could just “do” or “decide on” in under an hour.\n\nOnce we’ve ranked them on these two dimensions, we’re going to calculate an “Impact/Effort Ratio” that will be our guiding metric for choosing what to work on.\n\nWith that metric calculated, we will re-sort our potential project list from highest to lowest impact/effort ratio, then get to work on the 3 highest ranking projects:\n\nStep 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\nIn our current scenario, we actually don’t have any 1-ranked effort projects, so we will skip this step.\n\nWe have built a culture that usually attacks these opportunities the second they present themselves, so there is nothing glaringly easy to work on.\n\nStep 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\nSo for us, the first one is just a “decision.”\n\nWe are going to go much bigger for this webinar and risk more to get more people to show up. We’re going to run a VIP version that hopefully lets us get a good chunk of ad spend back before the event that de-risks things by 30-50% before we even begin.\n\nNext we’re going to build a low-ticket $27 product funnel.\n\nThis will let us:\n\n• Run a low-ticket cold funnel\n\n• Have an asset to create VIP webinars\n\n• And have a new product that our organic audience can buy to reengage them\n\nThis will take significant amounts of team effort, but our hypothesis is that effort is worth it.\n\nLastly we’re going to invest in writing better emails.\n\nTo do that, we need to:\n\n• Diversify the types of emails we send\n\n• Implement more story-driven narrative-type emails that build more emotional resonance with us/our story\n\n• And provide even more high-quality education that builds reader trusts and makes applying to PGA more likely\n\nFrom here the steps/rules start to diverge based on whether you are a small-team/solo operator or have a more fleshed out team.\n\nStep 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\nHave a small team or operate solo?\n\nYou are going to have to block time to attack these while continuing to run all the other things you have going on in the business. If you want to grow, you have to do all the work you’re currently doing to fulfill + allocate extra effort toward the things that help you grow.\n\nHave a larger team, department heads, or multiple profit centers within the business?\n\nYou can run this exercise at the department level that helps each profit center work on the profit-maximizing things. Then you will have each of your individual contributors/department heads be the ones who are responsible for doing the actual execution of these initiatives.\n\nStep 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nFrom here, we’re going to attack the initiatives we’ve chosen until they are complete/up and running.\n\nThen we simply repeat this exercise when setting new goals.\n\nIn our case, part of our goals just require us to invest more money into paid ads. So there’s a world where, once we do the first two initiatives, all we have to do is increase our ad spend and then continue to do the things we’re doing.\n\nAt that point, reaching our goals likely becomes an efficiency problem, which we would find by repeating the exercise.\n\nThen, we repeat this exercise every couple weeks/months/quarters for as long as we are in business.\n\nAnd that’s a wrap!\n\nHere’s a quick recap of my exact approach to setting goals:\n\n• Step 0: Understand goals are just math\n\n• Step 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\n• Step 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\n• Step 3: Quantify the gap between your goal and your current\n\n• Step 4: Identify if your bottleneck is volume or efficiency\n\n• Step 5: Brain dump list of all ways to solve that bottleneck\n\n• Step 6: Rank each item on Impact (1-5) and Effort (1-5)\n\n• Step 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\n• Step 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\n• Step 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\n• Step 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nGive this a try and report back.","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,150],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1985791229456498930","view_count":10980,"bookmark_count":19,"created_at":1762284497000,"favorite_count":204,"quote_count":3,"reply_count":84,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1985791229456498930","full_text":"The

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9. Enjoy the ride\n\nI can look back and smile on every single moment of my 4 years as an entrepreneur, even though I was not smiling in the moment.\n\nWhich means you can take the same approach now, no matter how challenging something is.\n\nEvery problem you face & overcome is writing a story you will talk about for the rest of your life. Lighten up and release the grip, it’s not as serious as you’re making it.

years ago I quit my full-time job on Wall Street\n\nHere is the exact series of events & realizations I had along the way:\n\n1. Got my dream job as a hedge fund trader, $120k/year my first year at age 22, thought I would want to do it forever\n\n2. 6 months in, realized that the people 15 years ahead of me did not live lives I wanted to live\n\n3. Realized I needed to find a way to passively find other opportunities while slowly plotting my escape\n\nThis led me to 𝕏 where I started following people talking about online business\n\n4. Realized I was going to have to enter a period of extreme intensity as I had to be at my desk in the office every day by 7 AM\n\nBegan waking up at 4:30 AM every day for a year, spent the first 2 hours of every day reading books on writing & business\n\n5. COVID hit, which meant I got to start working from home\n\nSuddenly realized that I did about 2 hours of actual work per day at my job, the rest was just pretending to work since everyone could see my screen\n\nQuickly created checklists for myself to streamline the actual things I was responsible for doing every day. Began to reinvest all the extra time into learning & writing\n\n6. Throughout 2020, I wrote a weekly newsletter called Dickie’s Digest\n\nAll I did was summarize podcasts & books I was reading & listening to that week as a forcing function to learn\n\nEvery Sunday, I would spend 4-5 hours writing my newsletter\n\nAfter 32 editions, I had about 200 subscribers\n\nSo I was ready to give up writing entirely\n\n7. September 2020, I decided to go from writing a weekly newsletter to writing a daily Atomic Essay or thread on 𝕏\n\nI wrote and published something every day for 30 days in a row\n\nDay 28, my first thread went viral\n\nOvernight I went from 200 newsletter subscribers to 1400 and from 250 𝕏 followers to 2000\n\n8. That viral thread ended up in the hands of a legendary copywriter, Craig Clemens\n\nHe DM’d me asking if I would do something similar for him, a distillation of his best ideas that were spread all over the internet across various blog posts & keynote speeches\n\nI accepted, and said I would do it for free\n\n9. I spent the weekend immersing myself in his worldview\n\nI listened to 10 keynotes and read at least 30 articles\n\nI packaged it all up nicely into 2 separate book outlines - one distilling his thoughts on copywriting. The other his thoughts on life. \n\nI sent it over to him and he was floored\n\nHis assistant wired me $5,000 and I thought it was a typo\n\nMy brain was completely broken that the words I wrote on the internet led me to getting paid that much\n\nI didn’t know it at the time, but I had accidentally stumbled into the world of ghostwriting \n\n10. That ghostwriting client sent a cold email connecting me with my now business partner Nicolas Cole\n\nThe email started saying “Not sure why, but I think you two should know each other. I’ll let you two take it from here”\n\nCole and I connected and instantly clicked\n\nBoth former gamers & former athletes who loved writing on the internet\n\n11. That 30-day personal writing challenge changed my life\n\nIt led me to meet tons of people I looked up to and generated my first $5,000 on the internet\n\nI knew I wanted to keep writing, but I also knew it would be hard to do it alone\n\nSo I tweeted out a simple tweet asking if anyone would like to join me for a 30-day writing challenge called Ship 30 for 30\n\nThe tweet blew up and had hundreds of replies\n\nI spun up a landing page and charged anyone who wanted to join $50 to enter, but I promised to give them their money back if they wrote all 30 days\n\n7 days later, there were 50 of us in Slack channel writing & publishing daily Atomic Essays\n\n12. I held 1:1 interviews with basically everyone in that cohort\n\nI wanted to know what they liked, what they didn’t like, why they joined, and what they would change if they could\n\nI collected testimonials from as many people as possible\n\nI wired back the money to anyone who wanted it, but most told me to keep it, so I donated it\n\n13. Now it was November 2020—cohort-based courses were exploding in popularity \n\nEveryone was working from home and armed with stimulus checks\n\nSo I decided to make the next cohort $99, and you didn’t get your money back\n\nI was terrified to charge something, but I did it anyway\n\nI fired off the launch email and the Stripe notifications started to pour in\n\n14. Fast forward to January 2021, and Ship 30 was starting to accelerate in popularity\n\nCole was a part of that cohort and gave a few guest Office Hours sessions to talk about his writing frameworks\n\nI quickly realized there was no way I was going to build a successful business just focused around building a writing habit & publishing your first piece of writing\n\nThere needed to be a full-blown curriculum and structure\n\nSo we partnered up 50/50 and began to build Ship 30 into the internet’s fastest-growing cohort-based course\n\n15. The next 12 months were the most intense 12 months of my life\n\nI woke up every day at 4:30 AM, worked out, then wrote for 3 hours\n\nI then worked a full day (remotely) at my full-time job, bouncing between Slack (where we hosted our cohort) and Microsoft Teams (where I had to communicate with my team internally)\n\nI scheduled all of our cohort calls for Friday at 12 PM because we had an internal policy at work that meetings were not allowed on Friday after that time\n\n16. We obsessed over making Ship 30 an incredible experience\n\nAt just $249, we had hundreds and hundreds of people sign up for a cohort every ~8 weeks. \n\nEvery cohort we improved something:\n\nBetter content\nBetter curriculum\nBetter accountability\n\nWe were obsessed with creating an experience people couldn’t help but tell their friends about\n\n17. Throughout the year, Ship 30 continued to accelerate, and so did my writing on 𝕏\n\nI wrote 3-5 tweets per day + 2 high-quality threads per week\n\nEvery tweet drove to our email list where we wrote educational emails 2x per week with a CTA to join the next cohort of Ship 30\n\nOne platform (𝕏)\nOne product (Ship 30)\nOne avatar (people who wanted to start writing online)\n\n18. And by the end of 2021, we crossed $1,000,000 in total revenue\n\nMy personal take home in 2021 was a little over $600,000\n$180k of that was from my full-time job\nThe other $420k was from Ship 30\n\nI had nearly tripled my W2 income from a side hustle in about 30 months since realizing that I needed to leave that job\n\n19. February 2022 rolls around and my annual bonus hits my bank account\n\nAt this point, it was a bigger financial risk for me to stay at my job than it was to leave\n\nBut I was absolutely terrified\n\nI thought Ship 30 might just be a flash in the pan\n\nI was walking away from a guaranteed $180k/year job that I worked tirelessly throughout college to unlock\n\nMy parents thought I was crazy\n\nHell, I thought I was crazy\n\nI have pages and pages of journal entries tirelessly weighing the pros & cons, modeling every scenario, reflecting as my future self, and more\n\nI was so incredibly risk averse that I almost said I had to prove it again in 2022 before I could finally pull the trigger\n\n20. But in the middle of February, I was on a walk with Cole going back and forth on whether I should quit\n\nI cannot remember the exact thing he said, but something clicked\n\nI think it was something along the lines of what decision would the person I want to become make?\n\nThat made the answer clear\n\nI hung up on him (literally) and walked inside my house, called my boss, and let him know I was putting in my 4 weeks of notice and was going to build a business on my own\n\n21. That was a little over 3 years ago now. Since then we’ve gone on to build a thriving, successful business\n\nThe hedge fund I used to work for ended up closing, and I likely would have been laid off in 2024 because of it. I am grateful every day that I ended up taking that bet on myself\n\nBut I’m also extremely grateful that I proceeded in such a risk-averse way.\n\nI made zero rushed decisions\nI was patient & mitigated my downside\n\nAnd along the way, I was able to put together a story like this one that can hopefully provide value or a roadmap to someone in a similar situation","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,281],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1978582500654948543","view_count":15460,"bookmark_count":115,"created_at":1760565803000,"favorite_count":199,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":37,"retweet_count":17,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1978582500654948543","full_text":"Current infinite pursuits:\n\n1.

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9.

the last ~18 months, I’ve been in build & manage mode. During that time, our team has grown from 12 to over 30 members.\n\nNow, the next constraint keeping our business from growing to the next level is generating more traffic & attention.\n\nIt will require entering a new season of increased creative output.\n\nHere are the 9 daily principles I'm using to get there:\n\nPrinciple #1: Have a defined vehicle for output\n\nBefore you can “increase your creative output,” you need to get specific on what that means.\n\n• What, specifically, are you going to commit to creating?\n\n• How often are you going to create it?\n\n• Where are you going to publish it?\n\nDo you have to stick with this cadence forever? No.\n\nBut you need some kind of commitment from the beginning.\n\nSo for me, that commitment is going to be publishing a weekly newsletter.\n\nThis is the same cadence I set for myself back in the beginning of 2020 when I first started writing online.\n\nUsing the Lean Writing method, I can turn this one newsletter into:\n\n• A weekly long-form YouTube video \n• 5-10 pieces of short-form content \n• 1-2 pieces of medium-form text content \n• 5-10 Instagram Reels\n\nPrinciple #2: Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\nYou have to create your own set of Sacred Hours you can fully commit to without interruption.\n\nFor me, that’s going to be the first 4 hours of the day.\n\nUsually 7 AM to 11 AM.\n\nThis 4-hour block usually leads to about 3 hours of actual writing time, broken up into two 90-minute blocks separated by a short walk.\n\nI find that trying to write for any longer leads to significantly less output over week-long periods.\n\nIf I can knock out two of these blocks in a day, it’s a huge win.\n\nNow, am I going to be super rigid about this? Absolutely not.\n\nSome days I’ll only write for an hour.\n\nOther days I’ll write for six hours.\n\nWhat matters is I have a default time that I commit to producing as many days as possible.\n\nPrinciple #3: Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\nThis may be the most important factor in maintaining your creative motivation & inspiration.\n\nIf you’re working in a dark space, or an office you don’t like, or in an uncomfortable cafe chair, or with too much noise, you won’t be excited to write.\n\nHowever, if you’re excited by the idea of where you work, you’re much more likely to spend time there.\n\nFor me, that means spending my creative time working outside of the house:\n\n• I love working outside\n\n• I love the ~10-minute walking ritual to my favorite cafe\n\n• I love the ability to drop whatever I’m working on & immediately take a walk\n\nSo at this point you’ve figured out what type of writing you will produce, when you’ll write, and where you’ll write.\n\nIn the next step we figure out what to write.\n\nPrinciple #4: Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\nYour subconscious is incredibly good at solving problems while you sleep.\n\nBut most people never tap into this because of how their evenings go.\n\nIf you go to bed doomscrolling, or consuming tons of information, or with tons of open loops, your brain is unsure what to work on.\n\nSo to prevent this overwhelm & unlock your subconscious brainpower, try this simple end-of-day brain dump routine:\n\n1. During the last few minutes before bed, take out your notebook\n\n2. Brain dump 5-10 bullet points on anything you learned that day or anything that’s on your mind to close the loop or revisit tomorrow\n\n3. Then brain dump another 5-10 bullet points on what you want to work on during your deep work session the next day\n\nThen, shut your notebook and go to sleep.\n\nPrinciple #5: Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\nIf you’re like me, your most excited mornings come when you wake up with a completely clear calendar.\n\nMy output on these days is 50-100% higher:\n\n• I have full freedom over how I will work that day\n• I have zero looming open loops I need to address later\n• I can go fully offline & disappear into deep work\n\nBut this requires an intentional process to maximize your meeting-free blocks:\n\n• Try to turn as many meetings asynchronous as possible\n\n• If a meeting is high-leverage, batch it to one day of the week\n\n• Be rigid in upholding your meeting rules\n\nAnd I put together a simple script you can use whenever someone wants to schedule a meeting:\n\n\"Hey [name], I’m currently heads down in a writing mode keeping a clear calendar on X-Y days of the week. But I can do A time or B time on ABC date if that works for you? Otherwise, happy to jam async if it’s more urgent.\"\n\nNow let’s dig into a couple more tactics that you may find helpful.\n\nPrinciple #6: Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\nYour phone is a creative vampire.\n\nEven if you’re not looking at it, it still whispers at you if it’s anywhere close.\n\nFor me, I’ve built my workflow around writing at a cafe with my phone still at home:\n\n• I do all of my writing on my iPad that doesn’t have any social media apps installed\n\n• I start all of my writing sessions with a handwritten brain dump to get the juices going\n\n• And I’ve added Apple Pay to my Garmin which means I can live as if I had my phone on me without it anywhere nearby\n\nIt’s amazing how much more creative you are when you eliminate distraction AND give yourself a vehicle to capture that inspiration by hand.\n\nPrinciple #7: Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\nFor you to stick with this new writing cadence, you need positive reinforcement.\n\nAnd the easiest way to do that?\n\nLook at charts that only go up.\n\nFor me, this will be:\n\n• Total newsletters published \n• Total newsletter views \n• Total newsletter likes\n\nThese metrics will always trend up as long as you keep writing.\n\nPrinciple #8: Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\nThe thing you most want to avoid is doomscrolling any given platform.\n\nThis immediately turns into creative overwhelm. The algorithm will show you so much content that you'll be paralyzed by all the opportunities.\n\nFor me, I'm going to stick to long-form YouTube and Substack creators for inspiration:\n\n• I’ll focus on studying the way they write, package, create, and iterate\n\n• I’ll use their titles & subject lines as inspiration for ideas I can package in my own way\n\n• I’ll look back at their first 50 videos & newsletters to see how they got started so I don’t compare my step 3 or 4 to someone else’s step 10\n\nThis should lead to a steady drop in total volume of content consumption.\n\nBut an increase in depth.\n\nAnd that’s where your best ideas will come from as your brain has space to synthesize.\n\nPrinciple #9: Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nIncreasing creative output has to be your first priority.\n\n• It has to be the thing you schedule in first \n• It has to be the thing you go to bed thinking about \n• It has to be the thing you wake up excited to work on\n\nIf you’re not in a creative season, that’s fine.\nBut don’t pretend to be.\n\nDon’t expect yourself to achieve high levels of output or deep creative clarity if you’re spread thin across dozens of different projects and initiatives.\n\nNot every season is a creative season.\n\nI haven’t been in one for roughly 18 months.\n\nBut as I enter into this one, it’s my number one focus.\n\nWhich means ruthlessly pruning my days of everything else.\n\nAaaand that’s it.\n\nTo recap all 9 principles:\n\n1. Have a defined vehicle for output\n\n2. Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\n3. Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\n4. Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\n5. Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\n6. Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\n7. Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\n8. Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\n9. Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nGive each of these a try, take what works and discard what doesn’t.\n\nIf you have any questions on a specific principle, leave a comment to let me know!","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,81],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983601820237734305","view_count":11670,"bookmark_count":29,"created_at":1761762502000,"favorite_count":177,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":65,"retweet_count":14,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983601820237734305","full_text":"You are 30 days of daily writing away from a completely different life trajectory","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,260],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983655959403610523","view_count":12630,"bookmark_count":84,"created_at":1761775409000,"favorite_count":280,"quote_count":6,"reply_count":115,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983655959403610523","full_text":"Your life will get a lot easier when you view everything as a skill issue\n\nOut of shape?

works, let’s walk through a real example:\n\nOur front-end sales process within our Premium Ghostwriting Academy.\n\nStep 0: Understand goals are just math\n\nThis is the most important insight to understand when setting goals in your business.\n\nThe gap between where you are and where you want to be is one number. That number is made up by an equation that has input metrics + efficiency metrics.\n\nYour job is to analyze that equation and find out the part of the equation that needs fixing.\n\nThe part that needs fixing will create a new demand of you—some kind of new initiative you’re not currently doing but is required.\n\nThose demands will force actions that you need to work on every day until those demands are met & the equation looks like you want.\n\nThat’s it.\n\nEverything that is not improving your equation is a distraction.\n\nAnd so most of business goal setting is around getting extremely clear on the gap, the demands it creates, the actions that fulfill those demands, and then ignoring everything else and staying focused on those few critical actions.\n\nLet’s walk through what that looks like.\n\nStep 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\nWe want to hit $500k of new front end cash collected for PGA.\n\nStep 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\nWe did $330k of front end new cash collected last month.\n\nStep 3: Quantify the gap between goal & current\n\nWe are $170k short of our goal.\n\nStep 4: Identify if you have a volume or efficiency bottleneck\n\nWe have an efficiency bottleneck if we could reach our goal by more efficiently converting the number of leads coming in.\n\nWe have a volume bottleneck if we are at KPI on all of our efficiency metrics and simply need more people coming through.\n\nSo for our business, we are at “good enough” KPI to scale based on all of our efficiency metrics.\n\nMarketing efficiency:\n\n• Landing page conversion: 35%\n• % of leads who fill out an app: ~45%\n• % of apps that we keep on the calendar: 20%\n• Lead to kept call ratio: ~8%\n\nAll of these are good enough that they are not worth overly optimizing, especially given how much of it comes from organic.\n\nSales efficiency:\n\n• 75% show rate\n• 75% cash collected\n• 22% close rate @ $6.8k price point\n• = $800 per booked call on average\n\nBoth of our efficiency ratios for sales & marketing are in good shape.\n\nThis means we need to turn all of our attention toward volume.\n\nWe can now calculate the exact amount of additional volume we need to drive.\n\n• $170k cash collected short\n• @ $800 per booked call average cash collected\n• = 212 additional calls per month\n• = 9 more calls per day or 63 more calls per week\n\nWe currently book around 400 calls per month, so we need to raise that number to 600.\n\nSo, how do we do that?\n\nStep 5: Brainstorm all the ways you can fix that bottleneck\n\nIf we needed to book 212 more calls, what are all the things we could do?\n\nThe best way to approach this is through the “more/better/new” framework.\n\nFirst, look at all the places you’re currently generating traffic and make a list of all the places you could do “more.”\n\nThis is your highest risk-adjusted return and return on effort.\n\nHere’s some places we could do “more”:\n\n• More viral drops on LinkedIn? Already at 1x per week, likely capped out.\n\n• More posting on Instagram? Posting 2x per day, capped out.\n\n• More emails? Sending daily email, capped out.\n\n• More YouTube videos? Opportunity here.\n\nSo from that list, we have 2 clear solutions:\n\n1. Post more YouTube videos\n\n2. Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk\n\nNow what about “better?”\n\nWe want to look at all the places we’re currently posting and ask if there are any volume-generating areas that we could do things better to get more out of the current slots we’re using.\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn? Maybe.\n• Better posts on Instagram? Maybe.\n• Better emails? Likely some result.\n• Better YouTube videos? Not posting right now so need to do more first.\n\nSo from that list we have:\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Better posts on Instagram.\n• Better emails.\n\nLastly we want to think about “new.”\n\nWhat are all the things we aren’t currently doing that we think could help us generate more calls?\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\n• Launch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge → Basically a webinar on steroids.\n\nAlright now we have a list of all the things we could do.\n\nLet’s sort them into one list:\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\nLaunch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge.\n• Start making better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Start making better posts on Instagram.\n• Start writing better emails.\n• Post more YouTube videos.\n• Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk.\n\nGreat—we have a good mix of things we could do more of, things we could do better, and new things we need to do.\n\nNow let’s stack rank these to see which are worth doing.\n\nFor each of these initiatives, we need to understand we have limited resources and can only tackle so many.\n\nSo we want to choose the ones that have the highest likelihood of getting us closer to our 212 additional booked calls goal relative to the amount of effort it takes.\n\nWe are going to rank them across two dimensions:\n\n1. Impact (1-5). 5 being we think it has the potential to book an additional 200 calls if we JUST did that thing, 1 being it’s only likely to book a handful more calls.\n\n2. Effort (1-5). 5 being this would be extremely resource intensive with the entire team / lots of time & effort deployed on it, 1 being a very quick win you could just “do” or “decide on” in under an hour.\n\nOnce we’ve ranked them on these two dimensions, we’re going to calculate an “Impact/Effort Ratio” that will be our guiding metric for choosing what to work on.\n\nWith that metric calculated, we will re-sort our potential project list from highest to lowest impact/effort ratio, then get to work on the 3 highest ranking projects:\n\nStep 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\nIn our current scenario, we actually don’t have any 1-ranked effort projects, so we will skip this step.\n\nWe have built a culture that usually attacks these opportunities the second they present themselves, so there is nothing glaringly easy to work on.\n\nStep 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\nSo for us, the first one is just a “decision.”\n\nWe are going to go much bigger for this webinar and risk more to get more people to show up. We’re going to run a VIP version that hopefully lets us get a good chunk of ad spend back before the event that de-risks things by 30-50% before we even begin.\n\nNext we’re going to build a low-ticket $27 product funnel.\n\nThis will let us:\n\n• Run a low-ticket cold funnel\n\n• Have an asset to create VIP webinars\n\n• And have a new product that our organic audience can buy to reengage them\n\nThis will take significant amounts of team effort, but our hypothesis is that effort is worth it.\n\nLastly we’re going to invest in writing better emails.\n\nTo do that, we need to:\n\n• Diversify the types of emails we send\n\n• Implement more story-driven narrative-type emails that build more emotional resonance with us/our story\n\n• And provide even more high-quality education that builds reader trusts and makes applying to PGA more likely\n\nFrom here the steps/rules start to diverge based on whether you are a small-team/solo operator or have a more fleshed out team.\n\nStep 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\nHave a small team or operate solo?\n\nYou are going to have to block time to attack these while continuing to run all the other things you have going on in the business. If you want to grow, you have to do all the work you’re currently doing to fulfill + allocate extra effort toward the things that help you grow.\n\nHave a larger team, department heads, or multiple profit centers within the business?\n\nYou can run this exercise at the department level that helps each profit center work on the profit-maximizing things. Then you will have each of your individual contributors/department heads be the ones who are responsible for doing the actual execution of these initiatives.\n\nStep 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nFrom here, we’re going to attack the initiatives we’ve chosen until they are complete/up and running.\n\nThen we simply repeat this exercise when setting new goals.\n\nIn our case, part of our goals just require us to invest more money into paid ads. So there’s a world where, once we do the first two initiatives, all we have to do is increase our ad spend and then continue to do the things we’re doing.\n\nAt that point, reaching our goals likely becomes an efficiency problem, which we would find by repeating the exercise.\n\nThen, we repeat this exercise every couple weeks/months/quarters for as long as we are in business.\n\nAnd that’s a wrap!\n\nHere’s a quick recap of my exact approach to setting goals:\n\n• Step 0: Understand goals are just math\n\n• Step 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\n• Step 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\n• Step 3: Quantify the gap between your goal and your current\n\n• Step 4: Identify if your bottleneck is volume or efficiency\n\n• Step 5: Brain dump list of all ways to solve that bottleneck\n\n• Step 6: Rank each item on Impact (1-5) and Effort (1-5)\n\n• Step 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\n• Step 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\n• Step 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\n• Step 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nGive this a try and report back.","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,150],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1985791229456498930","view_count":10980,"bookmark_count":19,"created_at":1762284497000,"favorite_count":204,"quote_count":3,"reply_count":84,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1985791229456498930","full_text":"The

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9. Enjoy the ride\n\nI can look back and smile on every single moment of my 4 years as an entrepreneur, even though I was not smiling in the moment.\n\nWhich means you can take the same approach now, no matter how challenging something is.\n\nEvery problem you face & overcome is writing a story you will talk about for the rest of your life. Lighten up and release the grip, it’s not as serious as you’re making it.

years ago I quit my full-time job on Wall Street\n\nHere is the exact series of events & realizations I had along the way:\n\n1. Got my dream job as a hedge fund trader, $120k/year my first year at age 22, thought I would want to do it forever\n\n2. 6 months in, realized that the people 15 years ahead of me did not live lives I wanted to live\n\n3. Realized I needed to find a way to passively find other opportunities while slowly plotting my escape\n\nThis led me to 𝕏 where I started following people talking about online business\n\n4. Realized I was going to have to enter a period of extreme intensity as I had to be at my desk in the office every day by 7 AM\n\nBegan waking up at 4:30 AM every day for a year, spent the first 2 hours of every day reading books on writing & business\n\n5. COVID hit, which meant I got to start working from home\n\nSuddenly realized that I did about 2 hours of actual work per day at my job, the rest was just pretending to work since everyone could see my screen\n\nQuickly created checklists for myself to streamline the actual things I was responsible for doing every day. Began to reinvest all the extra time into learning & writing\n\n6. Throughout 2020, I wrote a weekly newsletter called Dickie’s Digest\n\nAll I did was summarize podcasts & books I was reading & listening to that week as a forcing function to learn\n\nEvery Sunday, I would spend 4-5 hours writing my newsletter\n\nAfter 32 editions, I had about 200 subscribers\n\nSo I was ready to give up writing entirely\n\n7. September 2020, I decided to go from writing a weekly newsletter to writing a daily Atomic Essay or thread on 𝕏\n\nI wrote and published something every day for 30 days in a row\n\nDay 28, my first thread went viral\n\nOvernight I went from 200 newsletter subscribers to 1400 and from 250 𝕏 followers to 2000\n\n8. That viral thread ended up in the hands of a legendary copywriter, Craig Clemens\n\nHe DM’d me asking if I would do something similar for him, a distillation of his best ideas that were spread all over the internet across various blog posts & keynote speeches\n\nI accepted, and said I would do it for free\n\n9. I spent the weekend immersing myself in his worldview\n\nI listened to 10 keynotes and read at least 30 articles\n\nI packaged it all up nicely into 2 separate book outlines - one distilling his thoughts on copywriting. The other his thoughts on life. \n\nI sent it over to him and he was floored\n\nHis assistant wired me $5,000 and I thought it was a typo\n\nMy brain was completely broken that the words I wrote on the internet led me to getting paid that much\n\nI didn’t know it at the time, but I had accidentally stumbled into the world of ghostwriting \n\n10. That ghostwriting client sent a cold email connecting me with my now business partner Nicolas Cole\n\nThe email started saying “Not sure why, but I think you two should know each other. I’ll let you two take it from here”\n\nCole and I connected and instantly clicked\n\nBoth former gamers & former athletes who loved writing on the internet\n\n11. That 30-day personal writing challenge changed my life\n\nIt led me to meet tons of people I looked up to and generated my first $5,000 on the internet\n\nI knew I wanted to keep writing, but I also knew it would be hard to do it alone\n\nSo I tweeted out a simple tweet asking if anyone would like to join me for a 30-day writing challenge called Ship 30 for 30\n\nThe tweet blew up and had hundreds of replies\n\nI spun up a landing page and charged anyone who wanted to join $50 to enter, but I promised to give them their money back if they wrote all 30 days\n\n7 days later, there were 50 of us in Slack channel writing & publishing daily Atomic Essays\n\n12. I held 1:1 interviews with basically everyone in that cohort\n\nI wanted to know what they liked, what they didn’t like, why they joined, and what they would change if they could\n\nI collected testimonials from as many people as possible\n\nI wired back the money to anyone who wanted it, but most told me to keep it, so I donated it\n\n13. Now it was November 2020—cohort-based courses were exploding in popularity \n\nEveryone was working from home and armed with stimulus checks\n\nSo I decided to make the next cohort $99, and you didn’t get your money back\n\nI was terrified to charge something, but I did it anyway\n\nI fired off the launch email and the Stripe notifications started to pour in\n\n14. Fast forward to January 2021, and Ship 30 was starting to accelerate in popularity\n\nCole was a part of that cohort and gave a few guest Office Hours sessions to talk about his writing frameworks\n\nI quickly realized there was no way I was going to build a successful business just focused around building a writing habit & publishing your first piece of writing\n\nThere needed to be a full-blown curriculum and structure\n\nSo we partnered up 50/50 and began to build Ship 30 into the internet’s fastest-growing cohort-based course\n\n15. The next 12 months were the most intense 12 months of my life\n\nI woke up every day at 4:30 AM, worked out, then wrote for 3 hours\n\nI then worked a full day (remotely) at my full-time job, bouncing between Slack (where we hosted our cohort) and Microsoft Teams (where I had to communicate with my team internally)\n\nI scheduled all of our cohort calls for Friday at 12 PM because we had an internal policy at work that meetings were not allowed on Friday after that time\n\n16. We obsessed over making Ship 30 an incredible experience\n\nAt just $249, we had hundreds and hundreds of people sign up for a cohort every ~8 weeks. \n\nEvery cohort we improved something:\n\nBetter content\nBetter curriculum\nBetter accountability\n\nWe were obsessed with creating an experience people couldn’t help but tell their friends about\n\n17. Throughout the year, Ship 30 continued to accelerate, and so did my writing on 𝕏\n\nI wrote 3-5 tweets per day + 2 high-quality threads per week\n\nEvery tweet drove to our email list where we wrote educational emails 2x per week with a CTA to join the next cohort of Ship 30\n\nOne platform (𝕏)\nOne product (Ship 30)\nOne avatar (people who wanted to start writing online)\n\n18. And by the end of 2021, we crossed $1,000,000 in total revenue\n\nMy personal take home in 2021 was a little over $600,000\n$180k of that was from my full-time job\nThe other $420k was from Ship 30\n\nI had nearly tripled my W2 income from a side hustle in about 30 months since realizing that I needed to leave that job\n\n19. February 2022 rolls around and my annual bonus hits my bank account\n\nAt this point, it was a bigger financial risk for me to stay at my job than it was to leave\n\nBut I was absolutely terrified\n\nI thought Ship 30 might just be a flash in the pan\n\nI was walking away from a guaranteed $180k/year job that I worked tirelessly throughout college to unlock\n\nMy parents thought I was crazy\n\nHell, I thought I was crazy\n\nI have pages and pages of journal entries tirelessly weighing the pros & cons, modeling every scenario, reflecting as my future self, and more\n\nI was so incredibly risk averse that I almost said I had to prove it again in 2022 before I could finally pull the trigger\n\n20. But in the middle of February, I was on a walk with Cole going back and forth on whether I should quit\n\nI cannot remember the exact thing he said, but something clicked\n\nI think it was something along the lines of what decision would the person I want to become make?\n\nThat made the answer clear\n\nI hung up on him (literally) and walked inside my house, called my boss, and let him know I was putting in my 4 weeks of notice and was going to build a business on my own\n\n21. That was a little over 3 years ago now. Since then we’ve gone on to build a thriving, successful business\n\nThe hedge fund I used to work for ended up closing, and I likely would have been laid off in 2024 because of it. I am grateful every day that I ended up taking that bet on myself\n\nBut I’m also extremely grateful that I proceeded in such a risk-averse way.\n\nI made zero rushed decisions\nI was patient & mitigated my downside\n\nAnd along the way, I was able to put together a story like this one that can hopefully provide value or a roadmap to someone in a similar situation","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,281],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1978582500654948543","view_count":15460,"bookmark_count":115,"created_at":1760565803000,"favorite_count":199,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":37,"retweet_count":17,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1978582500654948543","full_text":"Current infinite pursuits:\n\n1.

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9.

the last ~18 months, I’ve been in build & manage mode. During that time, our team has grown from 12 to over 30 members.\n\nNow, the next constraint keeping our business from growing to the next level is generating more traffic & attention.\n\nIt will require entering a new season of increased creative output.\n\nHere are the 9 daily principles I'm using to get there:\n\nPrinciple #1: Have a defined vehicle for output\n\nBefore you can “increase your creative output,” you need to get specific on what that means.\n\n• What, specifically, are you going to commit to creating?\n\n• How often are you going to create it?\n\n• Where are you going to publish it?\n\nDo you have to stick with this cadence forever? No.\n\nBut you need some kind of commitment from the beginning.\n\nSo for me, that commitment is going to be publishing a weekly newsletter.\n\nThis is the same cadence I set for myself back in the beginning of 2020 when I first started writing online.\n\nUsing the Lean Writing method, I can turn this one newsletter into:\n\n• A weekly long-form YouTube video \n• 5-10 pieces of short-form content \n• 1-2 pieces of medium-form text content \n• 5-10 Instagram Reels\n\nPrinciple #2: Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\nYou have to create your own set of Sacred Hours you can fully commit to without interruption.\n\nFor me, that’s going to be the first 4 hours of the day.\n\nUsually 7 AM to 11 AM.\n\nThis 4-hour block usually leads to about 3 hours of actual writing time, broken up into two 90-minute blocks separated by a short walk.\n\nI find that trying to write for any longer leads to significantly less output over week-long periods.\n\nIf I can knock out two of these blocks in a day, it’s a huge win.\n\nNow, am I going to be super rigid about this? Absolutely not.\n\nSome days I’ll only write for an hour.\n\nOther days I’ll write for six hours.\n\nWhat matters is I have a default time that I commit to producing as many days as possible.\n\nPrinciple #3: Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\nThis may be the most important factor in maintaining your creative motivation & inspiration.\n\nIf you’re working in a dark space, or an office you don’t like, or in an uncomfortable cafe chair, or with too much noise, you won’t be excited to write.\n\nHowever, if you’re excited by the idea of where you work, you’re much more likely to spend time there.\n\nFor me, that means spending my creative time working outside of the house:\n\n• I love working outside\n\n• I love the ~10-minute walking ritual to my favorite cafe\n\n• I love the ability to drop whatever I’m working on & immediately take a walk\n\nSo at this point you’ve figured out what type of writing you will produce, when you’ll write, and where you’ll write.\n\nIn the next step we figure out what to write.\n\nPrinciple #4: Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\nYour subconscious is incredibly good at solving problems while you sleep.\n\nBut most people never tap into this because of how their evenings go.\n\nIf you go to bed doomscrolling, or consuming tons of information, or with tons of open loops, your brain is unsure what to work on.\n\nSo to prevent this overwhelm & unlock your subconscious brainpower, try this simple end-of-day brain dump routine:\n\n1. During the last few minutes before bed, take out your notebook\n\n2. Brain dump 5-10 bullet points on anything you learned that day or anything that’s on your mind to close the loop or revisit tomorrow\n\n3. Then brain dump another 5-10 bullet points on what you want to work on during your deep work session the next day\n\nThen, shut your notebook and go to sleep.\n\nPrinciple #5: Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\nIf you’re like me, your most excited mornings come when you wake up with a completely clear calendar.\n\nMy output on these days is 50-100% higher:\n\n• I have full freedom over how I will work that day\n• I have zero looming open loops I need to address later\n• I can go fully offline & disappear into deep work\n\nBut this requires an intentional process to maximize your meeting-free blocks:\n\n• Try to turn as many meetings asynchronous as possible\n\n• If a meeting is high-leverage, batch it to one day of the week\n\n• Be rigid in upholding your meeting rules\n\nAnd I put together a simple script you can use whenever someone wants to schedule a meeting:\n\n\"Hey [name], I’m currently heads down in a writing mode keeping a clear calendar on X-Y days of the week. But I can do A time or B time on ABC date if that works for you? Otherwise, happy to jam async if it’s more urgent.\"\n\nNow let’s dig into a couple more tactics that you may find helpful.\n\nPrinciple #6: Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\nYour phone is a creative vampire.\n\nEven if you’re not looking at it, it still whispers at you if it’s anywhere close.\n\nFor me, I’ve built my workflow around writing at a cafe with my phone still at home:\n\n• I do all of my writing on my iPad that doesn’t have any social media apps installed\n\n• I start all of my writing sessions with a handwritten brain dump to get the juices going\n\n• And I’ve added Apple Pay to my Garmin which means I can live as if I had my phone on me without it anywhere nearby\n\nIt’s amazing how much more creative you are when you eliminate distraction AND give yourself a vehicle to capture that inspiration by hand.\n\nPrinciple #7: Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\nFor you to stick with this new writing cadence, you need positive reinforcement.\n\nAnd the easiest way to do that?\n\nLook at charts that only go up.\n\nFor me, this will be:\n\n• Total newsletters published \n• Total newsletter views \n• Total newsletter likes\n\nThese metrics will always trend up as long as you keep writing.\n\nPrinciple #8: Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\nThe thing you most want to avoid is doomscrolling any given platform.\n\nThis immediately turns into creative overwhelm. The algorithm will show you so much content that you'll be paralyzed by all the opportunities.\n\nFor me, I'm going to stick to long-form YouTube and Substack creators for inspiration:\n\n• I’ll focus on studying the way they write, package, create, and iterate\n\n• I’ll use their titles & subject lines as inspiration for ideas I can package in my own way\n\n• I’ll look back at their first 50 videos & newsletters to see how they got started so I don’t compare my step 3 or 4 to someone else’s step 10\n\nThis should lead to a steady drop in total volume of content consumption.\n\nBut an increase in depth.\n\nAnd that’s where your best ideas will come from as your brain has space to synthesize.\n\nPrinciple #9: Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nIncreasing creative output has to be your first priority.\n\n• It has to be the thing you schedule in first \n• It has to be the thing you go to bed thinking about \n• It has to be the thing you wake up excited to work on\n\nIf you’re not in a creative season, that’s fine.\nBut don’t pretend to be.\n\nDon’t expect yourself to achieve high levels of output or deep creative clarity if you’re spread thin across dozens of different projects and initiatives.\n\nNot every season is a creative season.\n\nI haven’t been in one for roughly 18 months.\n\nBut as I enter into this one, it’s my number one focus.\n\nWhich means ruthlessly pruning my days of everything else.\n\nAaaand that’s it.\n\nTo recap all 9 principles:\n\n1. Have a defined vehicle for output\n\n2. Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\n3. Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\n4. Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\n5. Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\n6. Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\n7. Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\n8. Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\n9. Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nGive each of these a try, take what works and discard what doesn’t.\n\nIf you have any questions on a specific principle, leave a comment to let me know!","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,81],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983601820237734305","view_count":11670,"bookmark_count":29,"created_at":1761762502000,"favorite_count":177,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":65,"retweet_count":14,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983601820237734305","full_text":"You are 30 days of daily writing away from a completely different life trajectory","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,260],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983655959403610523","view_count":12630,"bookmark_count":84,"created_at":1761775409000,"favorite_count":280,"quote_count":6,"reply_count":115,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983655959403610523","full_text":"Your life will get a lot easier when you view everything as a skill issue\n\nOut of shape?

\n\nStep 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\nStep 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nTo help you see how this works, let’s walk through a real example:\n\nOur front-end sales process within our Premium Ghostwriting Academy.\n\nStep 0: Understand goals are just math\n\nThis is the most important insight to understand when setting goals in your business.\n\nThe gap between where you are and where you want to be is one number. That number is made up by an equation that has input metrics + efficiency metrics.\n\nYour job is to analyze that equation and find out the part of the equation that needs fixing.\n\nThe part that needs fixing will create a new demand of you—some kind of new initiative you’re not currently doing but is required.\n\nThose demands will force actions that you need to work on every day until those demands are met & the equation looks like you want.\n\nThat’s it.\n\nEverything that is not improving your equation is a distraction.\n\nAnd so most of business goal setting is around getting extremely clear on the gap, the demands it creates, the actions that fulfill those demands, and then ignoring everything else and staying focused on those few critical actions.\n\nLet’s walk through what that looks like.\n\nStep 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\nWe want to hit $500k of new front end cash collected for PGA.\n\nStep 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\nWe did $330k of front end new cash collected last month.\n\nStep 3: Quantify the gap between goal & current\n\nWe are $170k short of our goal.\n\nStep 4: Identify if you have a volume or efficiency bottleneck\n\nWe have an efficiency bottleneck if we could reach our goal by more efficiently converting the number of leads coming in.\n\nWe have a volume bottleneck if we are at KPI on all of our efficiency metrics and simply need more people coming through.\n\nSo for our business, we are at “good enough” KPI to scale based on all of our efficiency metrics.\n\nMarketing efficiency:\n\n• Landing page conversion: 35%\n• % of leads who fill out an app: ~45%\n• % of apps that we keep on the calendar: 20%\n• Lead to kept call ratio: ~8%\n\nAll of these are good enough that they are not worth overly optimizing, especially given how much of it comes from organic.\n\nSales efficiency:\n\n• 75% show rate\n• 75% cash collected\n• 22% close rate @ $6.8k price point\n• = $800 per booked call on average\n\nBoth of our efficiency ratios for sales & marketing are in good shape.\n\nThis means we need to turn all of our attention toward volume.\n\nWe can now calculate the exact amount of additional volume we need to drive.\n\n• $170k cash collected short\n• @ $800 per booked call average cash collected\n• = 212 additional calls per month\n• = 9 more calls per day or 63 more calls per week\n\nWe currently book around 400 calls per month, so we need to raise that number to 600.\n\nSo, how do we do that?\n\nStep 5: Brainstorm all the ways you can fix that bottleneck\n\nIf we needed to book 212 more calls, what are all the things we could do?\n\nThe best way to approach this is through the “more/better/new” framework.\n\nFirst, look at all the places you’re currently generating traffic and make a list of all the places you could do “more.”\n\nThis is your highest risk-adjusted return and return on effort.\n\nHere’s some places we could do “more”:\n\n• More viral drops on LinkedIn? Already at 1x per week, likely capped out.\n\n• More posting on Instagram? Posting 2x per day, capped out.\n\n• More emails? Sending daily email, capped out.\n\n• More YouTube videos? Opportunity here.\n\nSo from that list, we have 2 clear solutions:\n\n1. Post more YouTube videos\n\n2. Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk\n\nNow what about “better?”\n\nWe want to look at all the places we’re currently posting and ask if there are any volume-generating areas that we could do things better to get more out of the current slots we’re using.\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn? Maybe.\n• Better posts on Instagram? Maybe.\n• Better emails? Likely some result.\n• Better YouTube videos? Not posting right now so need to do more first.\n\nSo from that list we have:\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Better posts on Instagram.\n• Better emails.\n\nLastly we want to think about “new.”\n\nWhat are all the things we aren’t currently doing that we think could help us generate more calls?\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\n• Launch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge → Basically a webinar on steroids.\n\nAlright now we have a list of all the things we could do.\n\nLet’s sort them into one list:\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\nLaunch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge.\n• Start making better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Start making better posts on Instagram.\n• Start writing better emails.\n• Post more YouTube videos.\n• Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk.\n\nGreat—we have a good mix of things we could do more of, things we could do better, and new things we need to do.\n\nNow let’s stack rank these to see which are worth doing.\n\nFor each of these initiatives, we need to understand we have limited resources and can only tackle so many.\n\nSo we want to choose the ones that have the highest likelihood of getting us closer to our 212 additional booked calls goal relative to the amount of effort it takes.\n\nWe are going to rank them across two dimensions:\n\n1. Impact (1-5). 5 being we think it has the potential to book an additional 200 calls if we JUST did that thing, 1 being it’s only likely to book a handful more calls.\n\n2. Effort (1-5). 5 being this would be extremely resource intensive with the entire team / lots of time & effort deployed on it, 1 being a very quick win you could just “do” or “decide on” in under an hour.\n\nOnce we’ve ranked them on these two dimensions, we’re going to calculate an “Impact/Effort Ratio” that will be our guiding metric for choosing what to work on.\n\nWith that metric calculated, we will re-sort our potential project list from highest to lowest impact/effort ratio, then get to work on the 3 highest ranking projects:\n\nStep 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\nIn our current scenario, we actually don’t have any 1-ranked effort projects, so we will skip this step.\n\nWe have built a culture that usually attacks these opportunities the second they present themselves, so there is nothing glaringly easy to work on.\n\nStep 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\nSo for us, the first one is just a “decision.”\n\nWe are going to go much bigger for this webinar and risk more to get more people to show up. We’re going to run a VIP version that hopefully lets us get a good chunk of ad spend back before the event that de-risks things by 30-50% before we even begin.\n\nNext we’re going to build a low-ticket $27 product funnel.\n\nThis will let us:\n\n• Run a low-ticket cold funnel\n\n• Have an asset to create VIP webinars\n\n• And have a new product that our organic audience can buy to reengage them\n\nThis will take significant amounts of team effort, but our hypothesis is that effort is worth it.\n\nLastly we’re going to invest in writing better emails.\n\nTo do that, we need to:\n\n• Diversify the types of emails we send\n\n• Implement more story-driven narrative-type emails that build more emotional resonance with us/our story\n\n• And provide even more high-quality education that builds reader trusts and makes applying to PGA more likely\n\nFrom here the steps/rules start to diverge based on whether you are a small-team/solo operator or have a more fleshed out team.\n\nStep 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\nHave a small team or operate solo?\n\nYou are going to have to block time to attack these while continuing to run all the other things you have going on in the business. If you want to grow, you have to do all the work you’re currently doing to fulfill + allocate extra effort toward the things that help you grow.\n\nHave a larger team, department heads, or multiple profit centers within the business?\n\nYou can run this exercise at the department level that helps each profit center work on the profit-maximizing things. Then you will have each of your individual contributors/department heads be the ones who are responsible for doing the actual execution of these initiatives.\n\nStep 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nFrom here, we’re going to attack the initiatives we’ve chosen until they are complete/up and running.\n\nThen we simply repeat this exercise when setting new goals.\n\nIn our case, part of our goals just require us to invest more money into paid ads. So there’s a world where, once we do the first two initiatives, all we have to do is increase our ad spend and then continue to do the things we’re doing.\n\nAt that point, reaching our goals likely becomes an efficiency problem, which we would find by repeating the exercise.\n\nThen, we repeat this exercise every couple weeks/months/quarters for as long as we are in business.\n\nAnd that’s a wrap!\n\nHere’s a quick recap of my exact approach to setting goals:\n\n• Step 0: Understand goals are just math\n\n• Step 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\n• Step 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\n• Step 3: Quantify the gap between your goal and your current\n\n• Step 4: Identify if your bottleneck is volume or efficiency\n\n• Step 5: Brain dump list of all ways to solve that bottleneck\n\n• Step 6: Rank each item on Impact (1-5) and Effort (1-5)\n\n• Step 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\n• Step 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\n• Step 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\n• Step 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nGive this a try and report back.","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,150],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1985791229456498930","view_count":10980,"bookmark_count":19,"created_at":1762284497000,"favorite_count":204,"quote_count":3,"reply_count":84,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1985791229456498930","full_text":"The

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9. Enjoy the ride\n\nI can look back and smile on every single moment of my 4 years as an entrepreneur, even though I was not smiling in the moment.\n\nWhich means you can take the same approach now, no matter how challenging something is.\n\nEvery problem you face & overcome is writing a story you will talk about for the rest of your life. Lighten up and release the grip, it’s not as serious as you’re making it. You can indeed smile through times when everything feels like it’s going to break.\n\nSo if at any time you’re cursing the world, frustrated to no end, running on fumes, or questioning if any of this

Got my dream job as a hedge fund trader, $120k/year my first year at age 22, thought I would want to do it forever\n\n2. 6 months in, realized that the people 15 years ahead of me did not live lives I wanted to live\n\n3. Realized I needed to find a way to passively find other opportunities while slowly plotting my escape\n\nThis led me to 𝕏 where I started following people talking about online business\n\n4. Realized I was going to have to enter a period of extreme intensity as I had to be at my desk in the office every day by 7 AM\n\nBegan waking up at 4:30 AM every day for a year, spent the first 2 hours of every day reading books on writing & business\n\n5. COVID hit, which meant I got to start working from home\n\nSuddenly realized that I did about 2 hours of actual work per day at my job, the rest was just pretending to work since everyone could see my screen\n\nQuickly created checklists for myself to streamline the actual things I was responsible for doing every day. Began to reinvest all the extra time into learning & writing\n\n6. Throughout 2020, I wrote a weekly newsletter called Dickie’s Digest\n\nAll I did was summarize podcasts & books I was reading & listening to that week as a forcing function to learn\n\nEvery Sunday, I would spend 4-5 hours writing my newsletter\n\nAfter 32 editions, I had about 200 subscribers\n\nSo I was ready to give up writing entirely\n\n7. September 2020, I decided to go from writing a weekly newsletter to writing a daily Atomic Essay or thread on 𝕏\n\nI wrote and published something every day for 30 days in a row\n\nDay 28, my first thread went viral\n\nOvernight I went from 200 newsletter subscribers to 1400 and from 250 𝕏 followers to 2000\n\n8. That viral thread ended up in the hands of a legendary copywriter, Craig Clemens\n\nHe DM’d me asking if I would do something similar for him, a distillation of his best ideas that were spread all over the internet across various blog posts & keynote speeches\n\nI accepted, and said I would do it for free\n\n9. I spent the weekend immersing myself in his worldview\n\nI listened to 10 keynotes and read at least 30 articles\n\nI packaged it all up nicely into 2 separate book outlines - one distilling his thoughts on copywriting. The other his thoughts on life. \n\nI sent it over to him and he was floored\n\nHis assistant wired me $5,000 and I thought it was a typo\n\nMy brain was completely broken that the words I wrote on the internet led me to getting paid that much\n\nI didn’t know it at the time, but I had accidentally stumbled into the world of ghostwriting \n\n10. That ghostwriting client sent a cold email connecting me with my now business partner Nicolas Cole\n\nThe email started saying “Not sure why, but I think you two should know each other. I’ll let you two take it from here”\n\nCole and I connected and instantly clicked\n\nBoth former gamers & former athletes who loved writing on the internet\n\n11. That 30-day personal writing challenge changed my life\n\nIt led me to meet tons of people I looked up to and generated my first $5,000 on the internet\n\nI knew I wanted to keep writing, but I also knew it would be hard to do it alone\n\nSo I tweeted out a simple tweet asking if anyone would like to join me for a 30-day writing challenge called Ship 30 for 30\n\nThe tweet blew up and had hundreds of replies\n\nI spun up a landing page and charged anyone who wanted to join $50 to enter, but I promised to give them their money back if they wrote all 30 days\n\n7 days later, there were 50 of us in Slack channel writing & publishing daily Atomic Essays\n\n12. I held 1:1 interviews with basically everyone in that cohort\n\nI wanted to know what they liked, what they didn’t like, why they joined, and what they would change if they could\n\nI collected testimonials from as many people as possible\n\nI wired back the money to anyone who wanted it, but most told me to keep it, so I donated it\n\n13. Now it was November 2020—cohort-based courses were exploding in popularity \n\nEveryone was working from home and armed with stimulus checks\n\nSo I decided to make the next cohort $99, and you didn’t get your money back\n\nI was terrified to charge something, but I did it anyway\n\nI fired off the launch email and the Stripe notifications started to pour in\n\n14. Fast forward to January 2021, and Ship 30 was starting to accelerate in popularity\n\nCole was a part of that cohort and gave a few guest Office Hours sessions to talk about his writing frameworks\n\nI quickly realized there was no way I was going to build a successful business just focused around building a writing habit & publishing your first piece of writing\n\nThere needed to be a full-blown curriculum and structure\n\nSo we partnered up 50/50 and began to build Ship 30 into the internet’s fastest-growing cohort-based course\n\n15. The next 12 months were the most intense 12 months of my life\n\nI woke up every day at 4:30 AM, worked out, then wrote for 3 hours\n\nI then worked a full day (remotely) at my full-time job, bouncing between Slack (where we hosted our cohort) and Microsoft Teams (where I had to communicate with my team internally)\n\nI scheduled all of our cohort calls for Friday at 12 PM because we had an internal policy at work that meetings were not allowed on Friday after that time\n\n16. We obsessed over making Ship 30 an incredible experience\n\nAt just $249, we had hundreds and hundreds of people sign up for a cohort every ~8 weeks. \n\nEvery cohort we improved something:\n\nBetter content\nBetter curriculum\nBetter accountability\n\nWe were obsessed with creating an experience people couldn’t help but tell their friends about\n\n17. Throughout the year, Ship 30 continued to accelerate, and so did my writing on 𝕏\n\nI wrote 3-5 tweets per day + 2 high-quality threads per week\n\nEvery tweet drove to our email list where we wrote educational emails 2x per week with a CTA to join the next cohort of Ship 30\n\nOne platform (𝕏)\nOne product (Ship 30)\nOne avatar (people who wanted to start writing online)\n\n18. And by the end of 2021, we crossed $1,000,000 in total revenue\n\nMy personal take home in 2021 was a little over $600,000\n$180k of that was from my full-time job\nThe other $420k was from Ship 30\n\nI had nearly tripled my W2 income from a side hustle in about 30 months since realizing that I needed to leave that job\n\n19. February 2022 rolls around and my annual bonus hits my bank account\n\nAt this point, it was a bigger financial risk for me to stay at my job than it was to leave\n\nBut I was absolutely terrified\n\nI thought Ship 30 might just be a flash in the pan\n\nI was walking away from a guaranteed $180k/year job that I worked tirelessly throughout college to unlock\n\nMy parents thought I was crazy\n\nHell, I thought I was crazy\n\nI have pages and pages of journal entries tirelessly weighing the pros & cons, modeling every scenario, reflecting as my future self, and more\n\nI was so incredibly risk averse that I almost said I had to prove it again in 2022 before I could finally pull the trigger\n\n20. But in the middle of February, I was on a walk with Cole going back and forth on whether I should quit\n\nI cannot remember the exact thing he said, but something clicked\n\nI think it was something along the lines of what decision would the person I want to become make?\n\nThat made the answer clear\n\nI hung up on him (literally) and walked inside my house, called my boss, and let him know I was putting in my 4 weeks of notice and was going to build a business on my own\n\n21. That was a little over 3 years ago now. Since then we’ve gone on to build a thriving, successful business\n\nThe hedge fund I used to work for ended up closing, and I likely would have been laid off in 2024 because of it. I am grateful every day that I ended up taking that bet on myself\n\nBut I’m also extremely grateful that I proceeded in such a risk-averse way.\n\nI made zero rushed decisions\nI was patient & mitigated my downside\n\nAnd along the way, I was able to put together a story like this one that can hopefully provide value or a roadmap to someone in a similar situation","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,281],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1978582500654948543","view_count":15460,"bookmark_count":115,"created_at":1760565803000,"favorite_count":199,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":37,"retweet_count":17,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1978582500654948543","full_text":"Current infinite pursuits:\n\n1.

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9. Enjoy the ride\n\nI can look back and smile on every single moment of my 4 years as an entrepreneur, even though I was not smiling in the moment.\n\nWhich means you can take the same approach now, no matter how challenging something is.\n\nEvery problem you face & overcome is writing a story you will talk about for the rest of your life. Lighten up and release the grip, it’s not as serious as you’re making it.

the last ~18 months, I’ve been in build & manage mode. During that time, our team has grown from 12 to over 30 members.\n\nNow, the next constraint keeping our business from growing to the next level is generating more traffic & attention.\n\nIt will require entering a new season of increased creative output.\n\nHere are the 9 daily principles I'm using to get there:\n\nPrinciple #1: Have a defined vehicle for output\n\nBefore you can “increase your creative output,” you need to get specific on what that means.\n\n• What, specifically, are you going to commit to creating?\n\n• How often are you going to create it?\n\n• Where are you going to publish it?\n\nDo you have to stick with this cadence forever? No.\n\nBut you need some kind of commitment from the beginning.\n\nSo for me, that commitment is going to be publishing a weekly newsletter.\n\nThis is the same cadence I set for myself back in the beginning of 2020 when I first started writing online.\n\nUsing the Lean Writing method, I can turn this one newsletter into:\n\n• A weekly long-form YouTube video \n• 5-10 pieces of short-form content \n• 1-2 pieces of medium-form text content \n• 5-10 Instagram Reels\n\nPrinciple #2: Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\nYou have to create your own set of Sacred Hours you can fully commit to without interruption.\n\nFor me, that’s going to be the first 4 hours of the day.\n\nUsually 7 AM to 11 AM.\n\nThis 4-hour block usually leads to about 3 hours of actual writing time, broken up into two 90-minute blocks separated by a short walk.\n\nI find that trying to write for any longer leads to significantly less output over week-long periods.\n\nIf I can knock out two of these blocks in a day, it’s a huge win.\n\nNow, am I going to be super rigid about this? Absolutely not.\n\nSome days I’ll only write for an hour.\n\nOther days I’ll write for six hours.\n\nWhat matters is I have a default time that I commit to producing as many days as possible.\n\nPrinciple #3: Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\nThis may be the most important factor in maintaining your creative motivation & inspiration.\n\nIf you’re working in a dark space, or an office you don’t like, or in an uncomfortable cafe chair, or with too much noise, you won’t be excited to write.\n\nHowever, if you’re excited by the idea of where you work, you’re much more likely to spend time there.\n\nFor me, that means spending my creative time working outside of the house:\n\n• I love working outside\n\n• I love the ~10-minute walking ritual to my favorite cafe\n\n• I love the ability to drop whatever I’m working on & immediately take a walk\n\nSo at this point you’ve figured out what type of writing you will produce, when you’ll write, and where you’ll write.\n\nIn the next step we figure out what to write.\n\nPrinciple #4: Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\nYour subconscious is incredibly good at solving problems while you sleep.\n\nBut most people never tap into this because of how their evenings go.\n\nIf you go to bed doomscrolling, or consuming tons of information, or with tons of open loops, your brain is unsure what to work on.\n\nSo to prevent this overwhelm & unlock your subconscious brainpower, try this simple end-of-day brain dump routine:\n\n1. During the last few minutes before bed, take out your notebook\n\n2. Brain dump 5-10 bullet points on anything you learned that day or anything that’s on your mind to close the loop or revisit tomorrow\n\n3. Then brain dump another 5-10 bullet points on what you want to work on during your deep work session the next day\n\nThen, shut your notebook and go to sleep.\n\nPrinciple #5: Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\nIf you’re like me, your most excited mornings come when you wake up with a completely clear calendar.\n\nMy output on these days is 50-100% higher:\n\n• I have full freedom over how I will work that day\n• I have zero looming open loops I need to address later\n• I can go fully offline & disappear into deep work\n\nBut this requires an intentional process to maximize your meeting-free blocks:\n\n• Try to turn as many meetings asynchronous as possible\n\n• If a meeting is high-leverage, batch it to one day of the week\n\n• Be rigid in upholding your meeting rules\n\nAnd I put together a simple script you can use whenever someone wants to schedule a meeting:\n\n\"Hey [name], I’m currently heads down in a writing mode keeping a clear calendar on X-Y days of the week. But I can do A time or B time on ABC date if that works for you? Otherwise, happy to jam async if it’s more urgent.\"\n\nNow let’s dig into a couple more tactics that you may find helpful.\n\nPrinciple #6: Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\nYour phone is a creative vampire.\n\nEven if you’re not looking at it, it still whispers at you if it’s anywhere close.\n\nFor me, I’ve built my workflow around writing at a cafe with my phone still at home:\n\n• I do all of my writing on my iPad that doesn’t have any social media apps installed\n\n• I start all of my writing sessions with a handwritten brain dump to get the juices going\n\n• And I’ve added Apple Pay to my Garmin which means I can live as if I had my phone on me without it anywhere nearby\n\nIt’s amazing how much more creative you are when you eliminate distraction AND give yourself a vehicle to capture that inspiration by hand.\n\nPrinciple #7: Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\nFor you to stick with this new writing cadence, you need positive reinforcement.\n\nAnd the easiest way to do that?\n\nLook at charts that only go up.\n\nFor me, this will be:\n\n• Total newsletters published \n• Total newsletter views \n• Total newsletter likes\n\nThese metrics will always trend up as long as you keep writing.\n\nPrinciple #8: Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\nThe thing you most want to avoid is doomscrolling any given platform.\n\nThis immediately turns into creative overwhelm. The algorithm will show you so much content that you'll be paralyzed by all the opportunities.\n\nFor me, I'm going to stick to long-form YouTube and Substack creators for inspiration:\n\n• I’ll focus on studying the way they write, package, create, and iterate\n\n• I’ll use their titles & subject lines as inspiration for ideas I can package in my own way\n\n• I’ll look back at their first 50 videos & newsletters to see how they got started so I don’t compare my step 3 or 4 to someone else’s step 10\n\nThis should lead to a steady drop in total volume of content consumption.\n\nBut an increase in depth.\n\nAnd that’s where your best ideas will come from as your brain has space to synthesize.\n\nPrinciple #9: Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nIncreasing creative output has to be your first priority.\n\n• It has to be the thing you schedule in first \n• It has to be the thing you go to bed thinking about \n• It has to be the thing you wake up excited to work on\n\nIf you’re not in a creative season, that’s fine.\nBut don’t pretend to be.\n\nDon’t expect yourself to achieve high levels of output or deep creative clarity if you’re spread thin across dozens of different projects and initiatives.\n\nNot every season is a creative season.\n\nI haven’t been in one for roughly 18 months.\n\nBut as I enter into this one, it’s my number one focus.\n\nWhich means ruthlessly pruning my days of everything else.\n\nAaaand that’s it.\n\nTo recap all 9 principles:\n\n1. Have a defined vehicle for output\n\n2. Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\n3. Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\n4. Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\n5. Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\n6. Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\n7. Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\n8. Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\n9. Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nGive each of these a try, take what works and discard what doesn’t.\n\nIf you have any questions on a specific principle, leave a comment to let me know!","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,81],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983601820237734305","view_count":11670,"bookmark_count":29,"created_at":1761762502000,"favorite_count":177,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":65,"retweet_count":14,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983601820237734305","full_text":"You are 30 days of daily writing away from a completely different life trajectory","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,260],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983655959403610523","view_count":12630,"bookmark_count":84,"created_at":1761775409000,"favorite_count":280,"quote_count":6,"reply_count":115,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983655959403610523","full_text":"Your life will get a lot easier when you view everything as a skill issue\n\nOut of shape?

works, let’s walk through a real example:\n\nOur front-end sales process within our Premium Ghostwriting Academy.\n\nStep 0: Understand goals are just math\n\nThis is the most important insight to understand when setting goals in your business.\n\nThe gap between where you are and where you want to be is one number. That number is made up by an equation that has input metrics + efficiency metrics.\n\nYour job is to analyze that equation and find out the part of the equation that needs fixing.\n\nThe part that needs fixing will create a new demand of you—some kind of new initiative you’re not currently doing but is required.\n\nThose demands will force actions that you need to work on every day until those demands are met & the equation looks like you want.\n\nThat’s it.\n\nEverything that is not improving your equation is a distraction.\n\nAnd so most of business goal setting is around getting extremely clear on the gap, the demands it creates, the actions that fulfill those demands, and then ignoring everything else and staying focused on those few critical actions.\n\nLet’s walk through what that looks like.\n\nStep 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\nWe want to hit $500k of new front end cash collected for PGA.\n\nStep 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\nWe did $330k of front end new cash collected last month.\n\nStep 3: Quantify the gap between goal & current\n\nWe are $170k short of our goal.\n\nStep 4: Identify if you have a volume or efficiency bottleneck\n\nWe have an efficiency bottleneck if we could reach our goal by more efficiently converting the number of leads coming in.\n\nWe have a volume bottleneck if we are at KPI on all of our efficiency metrics and simply need more people coming through.\n\nSo for our business, we are at “good enough” KPI to scale based on all of our efficiency metrics.\n\nMarketing efficiency:\n\n• Landing page conversion: 35%\n• % of leads who fill out an app: ~45%\n• % of apps that we keep on the calendar: 20%\n• Lead to kept call ratio: ~8%\n\nAll of these are good enough that they are not worth overly optimizing, especially given how much of it comes from organic.\n\nSales efficiency:\n\n• 75% show rate\n• 75% cash collected\n• 22% close rate @ $6.8k price point\n• = $800 per booked call on average\n\nBoth of our efficiency ratios for sales & marketing are in good shape.\n\nThis means we need to turn all of our attention toward volume.\n\nWe can now calculate the exact amount of additional volume we need to drive.\n\n• $170k cash collected short\n• @ $800 per booked call average cash collected\n• = 212 additional calls per month\n• = 9 more calls per day or 63 more calls per week\n\nWe currently book around 400 calls per month, so we need to raise that number to 600.\n\nSo, how do we do that?\n\nStep 5: Brainstorm all the ways you can fix that bottleneck\n\nIf we needed to book 212 more calls, what are all the things we could do?\n\nThe best way to approach this is through the “more/better/new” framework.\n\nFirst, look at all the places you’re currently generating traffic and make a list of all the places you could do “more.”\n\nThis is your highest risk-adjusted return and return on effort.\n\nHere’s some places we could do “more”:\n\n• More viral drops on LinkedIn? Already at 1x per week, likely capped out.\n\n• More posting on Instagram? Posting 2x per day, capped out.\n\n• More emails? Sending daily email, capped out.\n\n• More YouTube videos? Opportunity here.\n\nSo from that list, we have 2 clear solutions:\n\n1. Post more YouTube videos\n\n2. Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk\n\nNow what about “better?”\n\nWe want to look at all the places we’re currently posting and ask if there are any volume-generating areas that we could do things better to get more out of the current slots we’re using.\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn? Maybe.\n• Better posts on Instagram? Maybe.\n• Better emails? Likely some result.\n• Better YouTube videos? Not posting right now so need to do more first.\n\nSo from that list we have:\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Better posts on Instagram.\n• Better emails.\n\nLastly we want to think about “new.”\n\nWhat are all the things we aren’t currently doing that we think could help us generate more calls?\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\n• Launch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge → Basically a webinar on steroids.\n\nAlright now we have a list of all the things we could do.\n\nLet’s sort them into one list:\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\nLaunch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge.\n• Start making better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Start making better posts on Instagram.\n• Start writing better emails.\n• Post more YouTube videos.\n• Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk.\n\nGreat—we have a good mix of things we could do more of, things we could do better, and new things we need to do.\n\nNow let’s stack rank these to see which are worth doing.\n\nFor each of these initiatives, we need to understand we have limited resources and can only tackle so many.\n\nSo we want to choose the ones that have the highest likelihood of getting us closer to our 212 additional booked calls goal relative to the amount of effort it takes.\n\nWe are going to rank them across two dimensions:\n\n1. Impact (1-5). 5 being we think it has the potential to book an additional 200 calls if we JUST did that thing, 1 being it’s only likely to book a handful more calls.\n\n2. Effort (1-5). 5 being this would be extremely resource intensive with the entire team / lots of time & effort deployed on it, 1 being a very quick win you could just “do” or “decide on” in under an hour.\n\nOnce we’ve ranked them on these two dimensions, we’re going to calculate an “Impact/Effort Ratio” that will be our guiding metric for choosing what to work on.\n\nWith that metric calculated, we will re-sort our potential project list from highest to lowest impact/effort ratio, then get to work on the 3 highest ranking projects:\n\nStep 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\nIn our current scenario, we actually don’t have any 1-ranked effort projects, so we will skip this step.\n\nWe have built a culture that usually attacks these opportunities the second they present themselves, so there is nothing glaringly easy to work on.\n\nStep 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\nSo for us, the first one is just a “decision.”\n\nWe are going to go much bigger for this webinar and risk more to get more people to show up. We’re going to run a VIP version that hopefully lets us get a good chunk of ad spend back before the event that de-risks things by 30-50% before we even begin.\n\nNext we’re going to build a low-ticket $27 product funnel.\n\nThis will let us:\n\n• Run a low-ticket cold funnel\n\n• Have an asset to create VIP webinars\n\n• And have a new product that our organic audience can buy to reengage them\n\nThis will take significant amounts of team effort, but our hypothesis is that effort is worth it.\n\nLastly we’re going to invest in writing better emails.\n\nTo do that, we need to:\n\n• Diversify the types of emails we send\n\n• Implement more story-driven narrative-type emails that build more emotional resonance with us/our story\n\n• And provide even more high-quality education that builds reader trusts and makes applying to PGA more likely\n\nFrom here the steps/rules start to diverge based on whether you are a small-team/solo operator or have a more fleshed out team.\n\nStep 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\nHave a small team or operate solo?\n\nYou are going to have to block time to attack these while continuing to run all the other things you have going on in the business. If you want to grow, you have to do all the work you’re currently doing to fulfill + allocate extra effort toward the things that help you grow.\n\nHave a larger team, department heads, or multiple profit centers within the business?\n\nYou can run this exercise at the department level that helps each profit center work on the profit-maximizing things. Then you will have each of your individual contributors/department heads be the ones who are responsible for doing the actual execution of these initiatives.\n\nStep 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nFrom here, we’re going to attack the initiatives we’ve chosen until they are complete/up and running.\n\nThen we simply repeat this exercise when setting new goals.\n\nIn our case, part of our goals just require us to invest more money into paid ads. So there’s a world where, once we do the first two initiatives, all we have to do is increase our ad spend and then continue to do the things we’re doing.\n\nAt that point, reaching our goals likely becomes an efficiency problem, which we would find by repeating the exercise.\n\nThen, we repeat this exercise every couple weeks/months/quarters for as long as we are in business.\n\nAnd that’s a wrap!\n\nHere’s a quick recap of my exact approach to setting goals:\n\n• Step 0: Understand goals are just math\n\n• Step 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\n• Step 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\n• Step 3: Quantify the gap between your goal and your current\n\n• Step 4: Identify if your bottleneck is volume or efficiency\n\n• Step 5: Brain dump list of all ways to solve that bottleneck\n\n• Step 6: Rank each item on Impact (1-5) and Effort (1-5)\n\n• Step 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\n• Step 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\n• Step 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\n• Step 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nGive this a try and report back.","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,150],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1985791229456498930","view_count":10980,"bookmark_count":19,"created_at":1762284497000,"favorite_count":204,"quote_count":3,"reply_count":84,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1985791229456498930","full_text":"The

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9. Enjoy the ride\n\nI can look back and smile on every single moment of my 4 years as an entrepreneur, even though I was not smiling in the moment.\n\nWhich means you can take the same approach now, no matter how challenging something is.\n\nEvery problem you face & overcome is writing a story you will talk about for the rest of your life. Lighten up and release the grip, it’s not as serious as you’re making it.

years ago I quit my full-time job on Wall Street\n\nHere is the exact series of events & realizations I had along the way:\n\n1. Got my dream job as a hedge fund trader, $120k/year my first year at age 22, thought I would want to do it forever\n\n2. 6 months in, realized that the people 15 years ahead of me did not live lives I wanted to live\n\n3. Realized I needed to find a way to passively find other opportunities while slowly plotting my escape\n\nThis led me to 𝕏 where I started following people talking about online business\n\n4. Realized I was going to have to enter a period of extreme intensity as I had to be at my desk in the office every day by 7 AM\n\nBegan waking up at 4:30 AM every day for a year, spent the first 2 hours of every day reading books on writing & business\n\n5. COVID hit, which meant I got to start working from home\n\nSuddenly realized that I did about 2 hours of actual work per day at my job, the rest was just pretending to work since everyone could see my screen\n\nQuickly created checklists for myself to streamline the actual things I was responsible for doing every day. Began to reinvest all the extra time into learning & writing\n\n6. Throughout 2020, I wrote a weekly newsletter called Dickie’s Digest\n\nAll I did was summarize podcasts & books I was reading & listening to that week as a forcing function to learn\n\nEvery Sunday, I would spend 4-5 hours writing my newsletter\n\nAfter 32 editions, I had about 200 subscribers\n\nSo I was ready to give up writing entirely\n\n7. September 2020, I decided to go from writing a weekly newsletter to writing a daily Atomic Essay or thread on 𝕏\n\nI wrote and published something every day for 30 days in a row\n\nDay 28, my first thread went viral\n\nOvernight I went from 200 newsletter subscribers to 1400 and from 250 𝕏 followers to 2000\n\n8. That viral thread ended up in the hands of a legendary copywriter, Craig Clemens\n\nHe DM’d me asking if I would do something similar for him, a distillation of his best ideas that were spread all over the internet across various blog posts & keynote speeches\n\nI accepted, and said I would do it for free\n\n9. I spent the weekend immersing myself in his worldview\n\nI listened to 10 keynotes and read at least 30 articles\n\nI packaged it all up nicely into 2 separate book outlines - one distilling his thoughts on copywriting. The other his thoughts on life. \n\nI sent it over to him and he was floored\n\nHis assistant wired me $5,000 and I thought it was a typo\n\nMy brain was completely broken that the words I wrote on the internet led me to getting paid that much\n\nI didn’t know it at the time, but I had accidentally stumbled into the world of ghostwriting \n\n10. That ghostwriting client sent a cold email connecting me with my now business partner Nicolas Cole\n\nThe email started saying “Not sure why, but I think you two should know each other. I’ll let you two take it from here”\n\nCole and I connected and instantly clicked\n\nBoth former gamers & former athletes who loved writing on the internet\n\n11. That 30-day personal writing challenge changed my life\n\nIt led me to meet tons of people I looked up to and generated my first $5,000 on the internet\n\nI knew I wanted to keep writing, but I also knew it would be hard to do it alone\n\nSo I tweeted out a simple tweet asking if anyone would like to join me for a 30-day writing challenge called Ship 30 for 30\n\nThe tweet blew up and had hundreds of replies\n\nI spun up a landing page and charged anyone who wanted to join $50 to enter, but I promised to give them their money back if they wrote all 30 days\n\n7 days later, there were 50 of us in Slack channel writing & publishing daily Atomic Essays\n\n12. I held 1:1 interviews with basically everyone in that cohort\n\nI wanted to know what they liked, what they didn’t like, why they joined, and what they would change if they could\n\nI collected testimonials from as many people as possible\n\nI wired back the money to anyone who wanted it, but most told me to keep it, so I donated it\n\n13. Now it was November 2020—cohort-based courses were exploding in popularity \n\nEveryone was working from home and armed with stimulus checks\n\nSo I decided to make the next cohort $99, and you didn’t get your money back\n\nI was terrified to charge something, but I did it anyway\n\nI fired off the launch email and the Stripe notifications started to pour in\n\n14. Fast forward to January 2021, and Ship 30 was starting to accelerate in popularity\n\nCole was a part of that cohort and gave a few guest Office Hours sessions to talk about his writing frameworks\n\nI quickly realized there was no way I was going to build a successful business just focused around building a writing habit & publishing your first piece of writing\n\nThere needed to be a full-blown curriculum and structure\n\nSo we partnered up 50/50 and began to build Ship 30 into the internet’s fastest-growing cohort-based course\n\n15. The next 12 months were the most intense 12 months of my life\n\nI woke up every day at 4:30 AM, worked out, then wrote for 3 hours\n\nI then worked a full day (remotely) at my full-time job, bouncing between Slack (where we hosted our cohort) and Microsoft Teams (where I had to communicate with my team internally)\n\nI scheduled all of our cohort calls for Friday at 12 PM because we had an internal policy at work that meetings were not allowed on Friday after that time\n\n16. We obsessed over making Ship 30 an incredible experience\n\nAt just $249, we had hundreds and hundreds of people sign up for a cohort every ~8 weeks. \n\nEvery cohort we improved something:\n\nBetter content\nBetter curriculum\nBetter accountability\n\nWe were obsessed with creating an experience people couldn’t help but tell their friends about\n\n17. Throughout the year, Ship 30 continued to accelerate, and so did my writing on 𝕏\n\nI wrote 3-5 tweets per day + 2 high-quality threads per week\n\nEvery tweet drove to our email list where we wrote educational emails 2x per week with a CTA to join the next cohort of Ship 30\n\nOne platform (𝕏)\nOne product (Ship 30)\nOne avatar (people who wanted to start writing online)\n\n18. And by the end of 2021, we crossed $1,000,000 in total revenue\n\nMy personal take home in 2021 was a little over $600,000\n$180k of that was from my full-time job\nThe other $420k was from Ship 30\n\nI had nearly tripled my W2 income from a side hustle in about 30 months since realizing that I needed to leave that job\n\n19. February 2022 rolls around and my annual bonus hits my bank account\n\nAt this point, it was a bigger financial risk for me to stay at my job than it was to leave\n\nBut I was absolutely terrified\n\nI thought Ship 30 might just be a flash in the pan\n\nI was walking away from a guaranteed $180k/year job that I worked tirelessly throughout college to unlock\n\nMy parents thought I was crazy\n\nHell, I thought I was crazy\n\nI have pages and pages of journal entries tirelessly weighing the pros & cons, modeling every scenario, reflecting as my future self, and more\n\nI was so incredibly risk averse that I almost said I had to prove it again in 2022 before I could finally pull the trigger\n\n20. But in the middle of February, I was on a walk with Cole going back and forth on whether I should quit\n\nI cannot remember the exact thing he said, but something clicked\n\nI think it was something along the lines of what decision would the person I want to become make?\n\nThat made the answer clear\n\nI hung up on him (literally) and walked inside my house, called my boss, and let him know I was putting in my 4 weeks of notice and was going to build a business on my own\n\n21. That was a little over 3 years ago now. Since then we’ve gone on to build a thriving, successful business\n\nThe hedge fund I used to work for ended up closing, and I likely would have been laid off in 2024 because of it. I am grateful every day that I ended up taking that bet on myself\n\nBut I’m also extremely grateful that I proceeded in such a risk-averse way.\n\nI made zero rushed decisions\nI was patient & mitigated my downside\n\nAnd along the way, I was able to put together a story like this one that can hopefully provide value or a roadmap to someone in a similar situation","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,281],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1978582500654948543","view_count":15460,"bookmark_count":115,"created_at":1760565803000,"favorite_count":199,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":37,"retweet_count":17,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1978582500654948543","full_text":"Current infinite pursuits:\n\n1.

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9.

the last ~18 months, I’ve been in build & manage mode. During that time, our team has grown from 12 to over 30 members.\n\nNow, the next constraint keeping our business from growing to the next level is generating more traffic & attention.\n\nIt will require entering a new season of increased creative output.\n\nHere are the 9 daily principles I'm using to get there:\n\nPrinciple #1: Have a defined vehicle for output\n\nBefore you can “increase your creative output,” you need to get specific on what that means.\n\n• What, specifically, are you going to commit to creating?\n\n• How often are you going to create it?\n\n• Where are you going to publish it?\n\nDo you have to stick with this cadence forever? No.\n\nBut you need some kind of commitment from the beginning.\n\nSo for me, that commitment is going to be publishing a weekly newsletter.\n\nThis is the same cadence I set for myself back in the beginning of 2020 when I first started writing online.\n\nUsing the Lean Writing method, I can turn this one newsletter into:\n\n• A weekly long-form YouTube video \n• 5-10 pieces of short-form content \n• 1-2 pieces of medium-form text content \n• 5-10 Instagram Reels\n\nPrinciple #2: Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\nYou have to create your own set of Sacred Hours you can fully commit to without interruption.\n\nFor me, that’s going to be the first 4 hours of the day.\n\nUsually 7 AM to 11 AM.\n\nThis 4-hour block usually leads to about 3 hours of actual writing time, broken up into two 90-minute blocks separated by a short walk.\n\nI find that trying to write for any longer leads to significantly less output over week-long periods.\n\nIf I can knock out two of these blocks in a day, it’s a huge win.\n\nNow, am I going to be super rigid about this? Absolutely not.\n\nSome days I’ll only write for an hour.\n\nOther days I’ll write for six hours.\n\nWhat matters is I have a default time that I commit to producing as many days as possible.\n\nPrinciple #3: Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\nThis may be the most important factor in maintaining your creative motivation & inspiration.\n\nIf you’re working in a dark space, or an office you don’t like, or in an uncomfortable cafe chair, or with too much noise, you won’t be excited to write.\n\nHowever, if you’re excited by the idea of where you work, you’re much more likely to spend time there.\n\nFor me, that means spending my creative time working outside of the house:\n\n• I love working outside\n\n• I love the ~10-minute walking ritual to my favorite cafe\n\n• I love the ability to drop whatever I’m working on & immediately take a walk\n\nSo at this point you’ve figured out what type of writing you will produce, when you’ll write, and where you’ll write.\n\nIn the next step we figure out what to write.\n\nPrinciple #4: Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\nYour subconscious is incredibly good at solving problems while you sleep.\n\nBut most people never tap into this because of how their evenings go.\n\nIf you go to bed doomscrolling, or consuming tons of information, or with tons of open loops, your brain is unsure what to work on.\n\nSo to prevent this overwhelm & unlock your subconscious brainpower, try this simple end-of-day brain dump routine:\n\n1. During the last few minutes before bed, take out your notebook\n\n2. Brain dump 5-10 bullet points on anything you learned that day or anything that’s on your mind to close the loop or revisit tomorrow\n\n3. Then brain dump another 5-10 bullet points on what you want to work on during your deep work session the next day\n\nThen, shut your notebook and go to sleep.\n\nPrinciple #5: Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\nIf you’re like me, your most excited mornings come when you wake up with a completely clear calendar.\n\nMy output on these days is 50-100% higher:\n\n• I have full freedom over how I will work that day\n• I have zero looming open loops I need to address later\n• I can go fully offline & disappear into deep work\n\nBut this requires an intentional process to maximize your meeting-free blocks:\n\n• Try to turn as many meetings asynchronous as possible\n\n• If a meeting is high-leverage, batch it to one day of the week\n\n• Be rigid in upholding your meeting rules\n\nAnd I put together a simple script you can use whenever someone wants to schedule a meeting:\n\n\"Hey [name], I’m currently heads down in a writing mode keeping a clear calendar on X-Y days of the week. But I can do A time or B time on ABC date if that works for you? Otherwise, happy to jam async if it’s more urgent.\"\n\nNow let’s dig into a couple more tactics that you may find helpful.\n\nPrinciple #6: Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\nYour phone is a creative vampire.\n\nEven if you’re not looking at it, it still whispers at you if it’s anywhere close.\n\nFor me, I’ve built my workflow around writing at a cafe with my phone still at home:\n\n• I do all of my writing on my iPad that doesn’t have any social media apps installed\n\n• I start all of my writing sessions with a handwritten brain dump to get the juices going\n\n• And I’ve added Apple Pay to my Garmin which means I can live as if I had my phone on me without it anywhere nearby\n\nIt’s amazing how much more creative you are when you eliminate distraction AND give yourself a vehicle to capture that inspiration by hand.\n\nPrinciple #7: Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\nFor you to stick with this new writing cadence, you need positive reinforcement.\n\nAnd the easiest way to do that?\n\nLook at charts that only go up.\n\nFor me, this will be:\n\n• Total newsletters published \n• Total newsletter views \n• Total newsletter likes\n\nThese metrics will always trend up as long as you keep writing.\n\nPrinciple #8: Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\nThe thing you most want to avoid is doomscrolling any given platform.\n\nThis immediately turns into creative overwhelm. The algorithm will show you so much content that you'll be paralyzed by all the opportunities.\n\nFor me, I'm going to stick to long-form YouTube and Substack creators for inspiration:\n\n• I’ll focus on studying the way they write, package, create, and iterate\n\n• I’ll use their titles & subject lines as inspiration for ideas I can package in my own way\n\n• I’ll look back at their first 50 videos & newsletters to see how they got started so I don’t compare my step 3 or 4 to someone else’s step 10\n\nThis should lead to a steady drop in total volume of content consumption.\n\nBut an increase in depth.\n\nAnd that’s where your best ideas will come from as your brain has space to synthesize.\n\nPrinciple #9: Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nIncreasing creative output has to be your first priority.\n\n• It has to be the thing you schedule in first \n• It has to be the thing you go to bed thinking about \n• It has to be the thing you wake up excited to work on\n\nIf you’re not in a creative season, that’s fine.\nBut don’t pretend to be.\n\nDon’t expect yourself to achieve high levels of output or deep creative clarity if you’re spread thin across dozens of different projects and initiatives.\n\nNot every season is a creative season.\n\nI haven’t been in one for roughly 18 months.\n\nBut as I enter into this one, it’s my number one focus.\n\nWhich means ruthlessly pruning my days of everything else.\n\nAaaand that’s it.\n\nTo recap all 9 principles:\n\n1. Have a defined vehicle for output\n\n2. Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\n3. Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\n4. Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\n5. Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\n6. Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\n7. Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\n8. Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\n9. Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nGive each of these a try, take what works and discard what doesn’t.\n\nIf you have any questions on a specific principle, leave a comment to let me know!","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,81],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983601820237734305","view_count":11670,"bookmark_count":29,"created_at":1761762502000,"favorite_count":177,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":65,"retweet_count":14,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983601820237734305","full_text":"You are 30 days of daily writing away from a completely different life trajectory","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,260],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983655959403610523","view_count":12630,"bookmark_count":84,"created_at":1761775409000,"favorite_count":280,"quote_count":6,"reply_count":115,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983655959403610523","full_text":"Your life will get a lot easier when you view everything as a skill issue\n\nOut of shape?

works, let’s walk through a real example:\n\nOur front-end sales process within our Premium Ghostwriting Academy.\n\nStep 0: Understand goals are just math\n\nThis is the most important insight to understand when setting goals in your business.\n\nThe gap between where you are and where you want to be is one number. That number is made up by an equation that has input metrics + efficiency metrics.\n\nYour job is to analyze that equation and find out the part of the equation that needs fixing.\n\nThe part that needs fixing will create a new demand of you—some kind of new initiative you’re not currently doing but is required.\n\nThose demands will force actions that you need to work on every day until those demands are met & the equation looks like you want.\n\nThat’s it.\n\nEverything that is not improving your equation is a distraction.\n\nAnd so most of business goal setting is around getting extremely clear on the gap, the demands it creates, the actions that fulfill those demands, and then ignoring everything else and staying focused on those few critical actions.\n\nLet’s walk through what that looks like.\n\nStep 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\nWe want to hit $500k of new front end cash collected for PGA.\n\nStep 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\nWe did $330k of front end new cash collected last month.\n\nStep 3: Quantify the gap between goal & current\n\nWe are $170k short of our goal.\n\nStep 4: Identify if you have a volume or efficiency bottleneck\n\nWe have an efficiency bottleneck if we could reach our goal by more efficiently converting the number of leads coming in.\n\nWe have a volume bottleneck if we are at KPI on all of our efficiency metrics and simply need more people coming through.\n\nSo for our business, we are at “good enough” KPI to scale based on all of our efficiency metrics.\n\nMarketing efficiency:\n\n• Landing page conversion: 35%\n• % of leads who fill out an app: ~45%\n• % of apps that we keep on the calendar: 20%\n• Lead to kept call ratio: ~8%\n\nAll of these are good enough that they are not worth overly optimizing, especially given how much of it comes from organic.\n\nSales efficiency:\n\n• 75% show rate\n• 75% cash collected\n• 22% close rate @ $6.8k price point\n• = $800 per booked call on average\n\nBoth of our efficiency ratios for sales & marketing are in good shape.\n\nThis means we need to turn all of our attention toward volume.\n\nWe can now calculate the exact amount of additional volume we need to drive.\n\n• $170k cash collected short\n• @ $800 per booked call average cash collected\n• = 212 additional calls per month\n• = 9 more calls per day or 63 more calls per week\n\nWe currently book around 400 calls per month, so we need to raise that number to 600.\n\nSo, how do we do that?\n\nStep 5: Brainstorm all the ways you can fix that bottleneck\n\nIf we needed to book 212 more calls, what are all the things we could do?\n\nThe best way to approach this is through the “more/better/new” framework.\n\nFirst, look at all the places you’re currently generating traffic and make a list of all the places you could do “more.”\n\nThis is your highest risk-adjusted return and return on effort.\n\nHere’s some places we could do “more”:\n\n• More viral drops on LinkedIn? Already at 1x per week, likely capped out.\n\n• More posting on Instagram? Posting 2x per day, capped out.\n\n• More emails? Sending daily email, capped out.\n\n• More YouTube videos? Opportunity here.\n\nSo from that list, we have 2 clear solutions:\n\n1. Post more YouTube videos\n\n2. Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk\n\nNow what about “better?”\n\nWe want to look at all the places we’re currently posting and ask if there are any volume-generating areas that we could do things better to get more out of the current slots we’re using.\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn? Maybe.\n• Better posts on Instagram? Maybe.\n• Better emails? Likely some result.\n• Better YouTube videos? Not posting right now so need to do more first.\n\nSo from that list we have:\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Better posts on Instagram.\n• Better emails.\n\nLastly we want to think about “new.”\n\nWhat are all the things we aren’t currently doing that we think could help us generate more calls?\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\n• Launch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge → Basically a webinar on steroids.\n\nAlright now we have a list of all the things we could do.\n\nLet’s sort them into one list:\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\nLaunch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge.\n• Start making better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Start making better posts on Instagram.\n• Start writing better emails.\n• Post more YouTube videos.\n• Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk.\n\nGreat—we have a good mix of things we could do more of, things we could do better, and new things we need to do.\n\nNow let’s stack rank these to see which are worth doing.\n\nFor each of these initiatives, we need to understand we have limited resources and can only tackle so many.\n\nSo we want to choose the ones that have the highest likelihood of getting us closer to our 212 additional booked calls goal relative to the amount of effort it takes.\n\nWe are going to rank them across two dimensions:\n\n1. Impact (1-5). 5 being we think it has the potential to book an additional 200 calls if we JUST did that thing, 1 being it’s only likely to book a handful more calls.\n\n2. Effort (1-5). 5 being this would be extremely resource intensive with the entire team / lots of time & effort deployed on it, 1 being a very quick win you could just “do” or “decide on” in under an hour.\n\nOnce we’ve ranked them on these two dimensions, we’re going to calculate an “Impact/Effort Ratio” that will be our guiding metric for choosing what to work on.\n\nWith that metric calculated, we will re-sort our potential project list from highest to lowest impact/effort ratio, then get to work on the 3 highest ranking projects:\n\nStep 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\nIn our current scenario, we actually don’t have any 1-ranked effort projects, so we will skip this step.\n\nWe have built a culture that usually attacks these opportunities the second they present themselves, so there is nothing glaringly easy to work on.\n\nStep 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\nSo for us, the first one is just a “decision.”\n\nWe are going to go much bigger for this webinar and risk more to get more people to show up. We’re going to run a VIP version that hopefully lets us get a good chunk of ad spend back before the event that de-risks things by 30-50% before we even begin.\n\nNext we’re going to build a low-ticket $27 product funnel.\n\nThis will let us:\n\n• Run a low-ticket cold funnel\n\n• Have an asset to create VIP webinars\n\n• And have a new product that our organic audience can buy to reengage them\n\nThis will take significant amounts of team effort, but our hypothesis is that effort is worth it.\n\nLastly we’re going to invest in writing better emails.\n\nTo do that, we need to:\n\n• Diversify the types of emails we send\n\n• Implement more story-driven narrative-type emails that build more emotional resonance with us/our story\n\n• And provide even more high-quality education that builds reader trusts and makes applying to PGA more likely\n\nFrom here the steps/rules start to diverge based on whether you are a small-team/solo operator or have a more fleshed out team.\n\nStep 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\nHave a small team or operate solo?\n\nYou are going to have to block time to attack these while continuing to run all the other things you have going on in the business. If you want to grow, you have to do all the work you’re currently doing to fulfill + allocate extra effort toward the things that help you grow.\n\nHave a larger team, department heads, or multiple profit centers within the business?\n\nYou can run this exercise at the department level that helps each profit center work on the profit-maximizing things. Then you will have each of your individual contributors/department heads be the ones who are responsible for doing the actual execution of these initiatives.\n\nStep 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nFrom here, we’re going to attack the initiatives we’ve chosen until they are complete/up and running.\n\nThen we simply repeat this exercise when setting new goals.\n\nIn our case, part of our goals just require us to invest more money into paid ads. So there’s a world where, once we do the first two initiatives, all we have to do is increase our ad spend and then continue to do the things we’re doing.\n\nAt that point, reaching our goals likely becomes an efficiency problem, which we would find by repeating the exercise.\n\nThen, we repeat this exercise every couple weeks/months/quarters for as long as we are in business.\n\nAnd that’s a wrap!\n\nHere’s a quick recap of my exact approach to setting goals:\n\n• Step 0: Understand goals are just math\n\n• Step 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\n• Step 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\n• Step 3: Quantify the gap between your goal and your current\n\n• Step 4: Identify if your bottleneck is volume or efficiency\n\n• Step 5: Brain dump list of all ways to solve that bottleneck\n\n• Step 6: Rank each item on Impact (1-5) and Effort (1-5)\n\n• Step 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\n• Step 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\n• Step 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\n• Step 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nGive this a try and report back.","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,150],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1985791229456498930","view_count":10980,"bookmark_count":19,"created_at":1762284497000,"favorite_count":204,"quote_count":3,"reply_count":84,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1985791229456498930","full_text":"The

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9. Enjoy the ride\n\nI can look back and smile on every single moment of my 4 years as an entrepreneur, even though I was not smiling in the moment.\n\nWhich means you can take the same approach now, no matter how challenging something is.\n\nEvery problem you face & overcome is writing a story you will talk about for the rest of your life. Lighten up and release the grip, it’s not as serious as you’re making it.

years ago I quit my full-time job on Wall Street\n\nHere is the exact series of events & realizations I had along the way:\n\n1. Got my dream job as a hedge fund trader, $120k/year my first year at age 22, thought I would want to do it forever\n\n2. 6 months in, realized that the people 15 years ahead of me did not live lives I wanted to live\n\n3. Realized I needed to find a way to passively find other opportunities while slowly plotting my escape\n\nThis led me to 𝕏 where I started following people talking about online business\n\n4. Realized I was going to have to enter a period of extreme intensity as I had to be at my desk in the office every day by 7 AM\n\nBegan waking up at 4:30 AM every day for a year, spent the first 2 hours of every day reading books on writing & business\n\n5. COVID hit, which meant I got to start working from home\n\nSuddenly realized that I did about 2 hours of actual work per day at my job, the rest was just pretending to work since everyone could see my screen\n\nQuickly created checklists for myself to streamline the actual things I was responsible for doing every day. Began to reinvest all the extra time into learning & writing\n\n6. Throughout 2020, I wrote a weekly newsletter called Dickie’s Digest\n\nAll I did was summarize podcasts & books I was reading & listening to that week as a forcing function to learn\n\nEvery Sunday, I would spend 4-5 hours writing my newsletter\n\nAfter 32 editions, I had about 200 subscribers\n\nSo I was ready to give up writing entirely\n\n7. September 2020, I decided to go from writing a weekly newsletter to writing a daily Atomic Essay or thread on 𝕏\n\nI wrote and published something every day for 30 days in a row\n\nDay 28, my first thread went viral\n\nOvernight I went from 200 newsletter subscribers to 1400 and from 250 𝕏 followers to 2000\n\n8. That viral thread ended up in the hands of a legendary copywriter, Craig Clemens\n\nHe DM’d me asking if I would do something similar for him, a distillation of his best ideas that were spread all over the internet across various blog posts & keynote speeches\n\nI accepted, and said I would do it for free\n\n9. I spent the weekend immersing myself in his worldview\n\nI listened to 10 keynotes and read at least 30 articles\n\nI packaged it all up nicely into 2 separate book outlines - one distilling his thoughts on copywriting. The other his thoughts on life. \n\nI sent it over to him and he was floored\n\nHis assistant wired me $5,000 and I thought it was a typo\n\nMy brain was completely broken that the words I wrote on the internet led me to getting paid that much\n\nI didn’t know it at the time, but I had accidentally stumbled into the world of ghostwriting \n\n10. That ghostwriting client sent a cold email connecting me with my now business partner Nicolas Cole\n\nThe email started saying “Not sure why, but I think you two should know each other. I’ll let you two take it from here”\n\nCole and I connected and instantly clicked\n\nBoth former gamers & former athletes who loved writing on the internet\n\n11. That 30-day personal writing challenge changed my life\n\nIt led me to meet tons of people I looked up to and generated my first $5,000 on the internet\n\nI knew I wanted to keep writing, but I also knew it would be hard to do it alone\n\nSo I tweeted out a simple tweet asking if anyone would like to join me for a 30-day writing challenge called Ship 30 for 30\n\nThe tweet blew up and had hundreds of replies\n\nI spun up a landing page and charged anyone who wanted to join $50 to enter, but I promised to give them their money back if they wrote all 30 days\n\n7 days later, there were 50 of us in Slack channel writing & publishing daily Atomic Essays\n\n12. I held 1:1 interviews with basically everyone in that cohort\n\nI wanted to know what they liked, what they didn’t like, why they joined, and what they would change if they could\n\nI collected testimonials from as many people as possible\n\nI wired back the money to anyone who wanted it, but most told me to keep it, so I donated it\n\n13. Now it was November 2020—cohort-based courses were exploding in popularity \n\nEveryone was working from home and armed with stimulus checks\n\nSo I decided to make the next cohort $99, and you didn’t get your money back\n\nI was terrified to charge something, but I did it anyway\n\nI fired off the launch email and the Stripe notifications started to pour in\n\n14. Fast forward to January 2021, and Ship 30 was starting to accelerate in popularity\n\nCole was a part of that cohort and gave a few guest Office Hours sessions to talk about his writing frameworks\n\nI quickly realized there was no way I was going to build a successful business just focused around building a writing habit & publishing your first piece of writing\n\nThere needed to be a full-blown curriculum and structure\n\nSo we partnered up 50/50 and began to build Ship 30 into the internet’s fastest-growing cohort-based course\n\n15. The next 12 months were the most intense 12 months of my life\n\nI woke up every day at 4:30 AM, worked out, then wrote for 3 hours\n\nI then worked a full day (remotely) at my full-time job, bouncing between Slack (where we hosted our cohort) and Microsoft Teams (where I had to communicate with my team internally)\n\nI scheduled all of our cohort calls for Friday at 12 PM because we had an internal policy at work that meetings were not allowed on Friday after that time\n\n16. We obsessed over making Ship 30 an incredible experience\n\nAt just $249, we had hundreds and hundreds of people sign up for a cohort every ~8 weeks. \n\nEvery cohort we improved something:\n\nBetter content\nBetter curriculum\nBetter accountability\n\nWe were obsessed with creating an experience people couldn’t help but tell their friends about\n\n17. Throughout the year, Ship 30 continued to accelerate, and so did my writing on 𝕏\n\nI wrote 3-5 tweets per day + 2 high-quality threads per week\n\nEvery tweet drove to our email list where we wrote educational emails 2x per week with a CTA to join the next cohort of Ship 30\n\nOne platform (𝕏)\nOne product (Ship 30)\nOne avatar (people who wanted to start writing online)\n\n18. And by the end of 2021, we crossed $1,000,000 in total revenue\n\nMy personal take home in 2021 was a little over $600,000\n$180k of that was from my full-time job\nThe other $420k was from Ship 30\n\nI had nearly tripled my W2 income from a side hustle in about 30 months since realizing that I needed to leave that job\n\n19. February 2022 rolls around and my annual bonus hits my bank account\n\nAt this point, it was a bigger financial risk for me to stay at my job than it was to leave\n\nBut I was absolutely terrified\n\nI thought Ship 30 might just be a flash in the pan\n\nI was walking away from a guaranteed $180k/year job that I worked tirelessly throughout college to unlock\n\nMy parents thought I was crazy\n\nHell, I thought I was crazy\n\nI have pages and pages of journal entries tirelessly weighing the pros & cons, modeling every scenario, reflecting as my future self, and more\n\nI was so incredibly risk averse that I almost said I had to prove it again in 2022 before I could finally pull the trigger\n\n20. But in the middle of February, I was on a walk with Cole going back and forth on whether I should quit\n\nI cannot remember the exact thing he said, but something clicked\n\nI think it was something along the lines of what decision would the person I want to become make?\n\nThat made the answer clear\n\nI hung up on him (literally) and walked inside my house, called my boss, and let him know I was putting in my 4 weeks of notice and was going to build a business on my own\n\n21. That was a little over 3 years ago now. Since then we’ve gone on to build a thriving, successful business\n\nThe hedge fund I used to work for ended up closing, and I likely would have been laid off in 2024 because of it. I am grateful every day that I ended up taking that bet on myself\n\nBut I’m also extremely grateful that I proceeded in such a risk-averse way.\n\nI made zero rushed decisions\nI was patient & mitigated my downside\n\nAnd along the way, I was able to put together a story like this one that can hopefully provide value or a roadmap to someone in a similar situation","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,281],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1978582500654948543","view_count":15460,"bookmark_count":115,"created_at":1760565803000,"favorite_count":199,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":37,"retweet_count":17,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1978582500654948543","full_text":"Current infinite pursuits:\n\n1.

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9.

the last ~18 months, I’ve been in build & manage mode. During that time, our team has grown from 12 to over 30 members.\n\nNow, the next constraint keeping our business from growing to the next level is generating more traffic & attention.\n\nIt will require entering a new season of increased creative output.\n\nHere are the 9 daily principles I'm using to get there:\n\nPrinciple #1: Have a defined vehicle for output\n\nBefore you can “increase your creative output,” you need to get specific on what that means.\n\n• What, specifically, are you going to commit to creating?\n\n• How often are you going to create it?\n\n• Where are you going to publish it?\n\nDo you have to stick with this cadence forever? No.\n\nBut you need some kind of commitment from the beginning.\n\nSo for me, that commitment is going to be publishing a weekly newsletter.\n\nThis is the same cadence I set for myself back in the beginning of 2020 when I first started writing online.\n\nUsing the Lean Writing method, I can turn this one newsletter into:\n\n• A weekly long-form YouTube video \n• 5-10 pieces of short-form content \n• 1-2 pieces of medium-form text content \n• 5-10 Instagram Reels\n\nPrinciple #2: Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\nYou have to create your own set of Sacred Hours you can fully commit to without interruption.\n\nFor me, that’s going to be the first 4 hours of the day.\n\nUsually 7 AM to 11 AM.\n\nThis 4-hour block usually leads to about 3 hours of actual writing time, broken up into two 90-minute blocks separated by a short walk.\n\nI find that trying to write for any longer leads to significantly less output over week-long periods.\n\nIf I can knock out two of these blocks in a day, it’s a huge win.\n\nNow, am I going to be super rigid about this? Absolutely not.\n\nSome days I’ll only write for an hour.\n\nOther days I’ll write for six hours.\n\nWhat matters is I have a default time that I commit to producing as many days as possible.\n\nPrinciple #3: Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\nThis may be the most important factor in maintaining your creative motivation & inspiration.\n\nIf you’re working in a dark space, or an office you don’t like, or in an uncomfortable cafe chair, or with too much noise, you won’t be excited to write.\n\nHowever, if you’re excited by the idea of where you work, you’re much more likely to spend time there.\n\nFor me, that means spending my creative time working outside of the house:\n\n• I love working outside\n\n• I love the ~10-minute walking ritual to my favorite cafe\n\n• I love the ability to drop whatever I’m working on & immediately take a walk\n\nSo at this point you’ve figured out what type of writing you will produce, when you’ll write, and where you’ll write.\n\nIn the next step we figure out what to write.\n\nPrinciple #4: Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\nYour subconscious is incredibly good at solving problems while you sleep.\n\nBut most people never tap into this because of how their evenings go.\n\nIf you go to bed doomscrolling, or consuming tons of information, or with tons of open loops, your brain is unsure what to work on.\n\nSo to prevent this overwhelm & unlock your subconscious brainpower, try this simple end-of-day brain dump routine:\n\n1. During the last few minutes before bed, take out your notebook\n\n2. Brain dump 5-10 bullet points on anything you learned that day or anything that’s on your mind to close the loop or revisit tomorrow\n\n3. Then brain dump another 5-10 bullet points on what you want to work on during your deep work session the next day\n\nThen, shut your notebook and go to sleep.\n\nPrinciple #5: Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\nIf you’re like me, your most excited mornings come when you wake up with a completely clear calendar.\n\nMy output on these days is 50-100% higher:\n\n• I have full freedom over how I will work that day\n• I have zero looming open loops I need to address later\n• I can go fully offline & disappear into deep work\n\nBut this requires an intentional process to maximize your meeting-free blocks:\n\n• Try to turn as many meetings asynchronous as possible\n\n• If a meeting is high-leverage, batch it to one day of the week\n\n• Be rigid in upholding your meeting rules\n\nAnd I put together a simple script you can use whenever someone wants to schedule a meeting:\n\n\"Hey [name], I’m currently heads down in a writing mode keeping a clear calendar on X-Y days of the week. But I can do A time or B time on ABC date if that works for you? Otherwise, happy to jam async if it’s more urgent.\"\n\nNow let’s dig into a couple more tactics that you may find helpful.\n\nPrinciple #6: Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\nYour phone is a creative vampire.\n\nEven if you’re not looking at it, it still whispers at you if it’s anywhere close.\n\nFor me, I’ve built my workflow around writing at a cafe with my phone still at home:\n\n• I do all of my writing on my iPad that doesn’t have any social media apps installed\n\n• I start all of my writing sessions with a handwritten brain dump to get the juices going\n\n• And I’ve added Apple Pay to my Garmin which means I can live as if I had my phone on me without it anywhere nearby\n\nIt’s amazing how much more creative you are when you eliminate distraction AND give yourself a vehicle to capture that inspiration by hand.\n\nPrinciple #7: Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\nFor you to stick with this new writing cadence, you need positive reinforcement.\n\nAnd the easiest way to do that?\n\nLook at charts that only go up.\n\nFor me, this will be:\n\n• Total newsletters published \n• Total newsletter views \n• Total newsletter likes\n\nThese metrics will always trend up as long as you keep writing.\n\nPrinciple #8: Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\nThe thing you most want to avoid is doomscrolling any given platform.\n\nThis immediately turns into creative overwhelm. The algorithm will show you so much content that you'll be paralyzed by all the opportunities.\n\nFor me, I'm going to stick to long-form YouTube and Substack creators for inspiration:\n\n• I’ll focus on studying the way they write, package, create, and iterate\n\n• I’ll use their titles & subject lines as inspiration for ideas I can package in my own way\n\n• I’ll look back at their first 50 videos & newsletters to see how they got started so I don’t compare my step 3 or 4 to someone else’s step 10\n\nThis should lead to a steady drop in total volume of content consumption.\n\nBut an increase in depth.\n\nAnd that’s where your best ideas will come from as your brain has space to synthesize.\n\nPrinciple #9: Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nIncreasing creative output has to be your first priority.\n\n• It has to be the thing you schedule in first \n• It has to be the thing you go to bed thinking about \n• It has to be the thing you wake up excited to work on\n\nIf you’re not in a creative season, that’s fine.\nBut don’t pretend to be.\n\nDon’t expect yourself to achieve high levels of output or deep creative clarity if you’re spread thin across dozens of different projects and initiatives.\n\nNot every season is a creative season.\n\nI haven’t been in one for roughly 18 months.\n\nBut as I enter into this one, it’s my number one focus.\n\nWhich means ruthlessly pruning my days of everything else.\n\nAaaand that’s it.\n\nTo recap all 9 principles:\n\n1. Have a defined vehicle for output\n\n2. Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\n3. Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\n4. Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\n5. Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\n6. Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\n7. Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\n8. Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\n9. Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nGive each of these a try, take what works and discard what doesn’t.\n\nIf you have any questions on a specific principle, leave a comment to let me know!","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,81],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983601820237734305","view_count":11670,"bookmark_count":29,"created_at":1761762502000,"favorite_count":177,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":65,"retweet_count":14,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983601820237734305","full_text":"You are 30 days of daily writing away from a completely different life trajectory","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,260],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983655959403610523","view_count":12630,"bookmark_count":84,"created_at":1761775409000,"favorite_count":280,"quote_count":6,"reply_count":115,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983655959403610523","full_text":"Your life will get a lot easier when you view everything as a skill issue\n\nOut of shape?

works, let’s walk through a real example:\n\nOur front-end sales process within our Premium Ghostwriting Academy.\n\nStep 0: Understand goals are just math\n\nThis is the most important insight to understand when setting goals in your business.\n\nThe gap between where you are and where you want to be is one number. That number is made up by an equation that has input metrics + efficiency metrics.\n\nYour job is to analyze that equation and find out the part of the equation that needs fixing.\n\nThe part that needs fixing will create a new demand of you—some kind of new initiative you’re not currently doing but is required.\n\nThose demands will force actions that you need to work on every day until those demands are met & the equation looks like you want.\n\nThat’s it.\n\nEverything that is not improving your equation is a distraction.\n\nAnd so most of business goal setting is around getting extremely clear on the gap, the demands it creates, the actions that fulfill those demands, and then ignoring everything else and staying focused on those few critical actions.\n\nLet’s walk through what that looks like.\n\nStep 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\nWe want to hit $500k of new front end cash collected for PGA.\n\nStep 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\nWe did $330k of front end new cash collected last month.\n\nStep 3: Quantify the gap between goal & current\n\nWe are $170k short of our goal.\n\nStep 4: Identify if you have a volume or efficiency bottleneck\n\nWe have an efficiency bottleneck if we could reach our goal by more efficiently converting the number of leads coming in.\n\nWe have a volume bottleneck if we are at KPI on all of our efficiency metrics and simply need more people coming through.\n\nSo for our business, we are at “good enough” KPI to scale based on all of our efficiency metrics.\n\nMarketing efficiency:\n\n• Landing page conversion: 35%\n• % of leads who fill out an app: ~45%\n• % of apps that we keep on the calendar: 20%\n• Lead to kept call ratio: ~8%\n\nAll of these are good enough that they are not worth overly optimizing, especially given how much of it comes from organic.\n\nSales efficiency:\n\n• 75% show rate\n• 75% cash collected\n• 22% close rate @ $6.8k price point\n• = $800 per booked call on average\n\nBoth of our efficiency ratios for sales & marketing are in good shape.\n\nThis means we need to turn all of our attention toward volume.\n\nWe can now calculate the exact amount of additional volume we need to drive.\n\n• $170k cash collected short\n• @ $800 per booked call average cash collected\n• = 212 additional calls per month\n• = 9 more calls per day or 63 more calls per week\n\nWe currently book around 400 calls per month, so we need to raise that number to 600.\n\nSo, how do we do that?\n\nStep 5: Brainstorm all the ways you can fix that bottleneck\n\nIf we needed to book 212 more calls, what are all the things we could do?\n\nThe best way to approach this is through the “more/better/new” framework.\n\nFirst, look at all the places you’re currently generating traffic and make a list of all the places you could do “more.”\n\nThis is your highest risk-adjusted return and return on effort.\n\nHere’s some places we could do “more”:\n\n• More viral drops on LinkedIn? Already at 1x per week, likely capped out.\n\n• More posting on Instagram? Posting 2x per day, capped out.\n\n• More emails? Sending daily email, capped out.\n\n• More YouTube videos? Opportunity here.\n\nSo from that list, we have 2 clear solutions:\n\n1. Post more YouTube videos\n\n2. Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk\n\nNow what about “better?”\n\nWe want to look at all the places we’re currently posting and ask if there are any volume-generating areas that we could do things better to get more out of the current slots we’re using.\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn? Maybe.\n• Better posts on Instagram? Maybe.\n• Better emails? Likely some result.\n• Better YouTube videos? Not posting right now so need to do more first.\n\nSo from that list we have:\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Better posts on Instagram.\n• Better emails.\n\nLastly we want to think about “new.”\n\nWhat are all the things we aren’t currently doing that we think could help us generate more calls?\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\n• Launch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge → Basically a webinar on steroids.\n\nAlright now we have a list of all the things we could do.\n\nLet’s sort them into one list:\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\nLaunch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge.\n• Start making better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Start making better posts on Instagram.\n• Start writing better emails.\n• Post more YouTube videos.\n• Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk.\n\nGreat—we have a good mix of things we could do more of, things we could do better, and new things we need to do.\n\nNow let’s stack rank these to see which are worth doing.\n\nFor each of these initiatives, we need to understand we have limited resources and can only tackle so many.\n\nSo we want to choose the ones that have the highest likelihood of getting us closer to our 212 additional booked calls goal relative to the amount of effort it takes.\n\nWe are going to rank them across two dimensions:\n\n1. Impact (1-5). 5 being we think it has the potential to book an additional 200 calls if we JUST did that thing, 1 being it’s only likely to book a handful more calls.\n\n2. Effort (1-5). 5 being this would be extremely resource intensive with the entire team / lots of time & effort deployed on it, 1 being a very quick win you could just “do” or “decide on” in under an hour.\n\nOnce we’ve ranked them on these two dimensions, we’re going to calculate an “Impact/Effort Ratio” that will be our guiding metric for choosing what to work on.\n\nWith that metric calculated, we will re-sort our potential project list from highest to lowest impact/effort ratio, then get to work on the 3 highest ranking projects:\n\nStep 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\nIn our current scenario, we actually don’t have any 1-ranked effort projects, so we will skip this step.\n\nWe have built a culture that usually attacks these opportunities the second they present themselves, so there is nothing glaringly easy to work on.\n\nStep 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\nSo for us, the first one is just a “decision.”\n\nWe are going to go much bigger for this webinar and risk more to get more people to show up. We’re going to run a VIP version that hopefully lets us get a good chunk of ad spend back before the event that de-risks things by 30-50% before we even begin.\n\nNext we’re going to build a low-ticket $27 product funnel.\n\nThis will let us:\n\n• Run a low-ticket cold funnel\n\n• Have an asset to create VIP webinars\n\n• And have a new product that our organic audience can buy to reengage them\n\nThis will take significant amounts of team effort, but our hypothesis is that effort is worth it.\n\nLastly we’re going to invest in writing better emails.\n\nTo do that, we need to:\n\n• Diversify the types of emails we send\n\n• Implement more story-driven narrative-type emails that build more emotional resonance with us/our story\n\n• And provide even more high-quality education that builds reader trusts and makes applying to PGA more likely\n\nFrom here the steps/rules start to diverge based on whether you are a small-team/solo operator or have a more fleshed out team.\n\nStep 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\nHave a small team or operate solo?\n\nYou are going to have to block time to attack these while continuing to run all the other things you have going on in the business. If you want to grow, you have to do all the work you’re currently doing to fulfill + allocate extra effort toward the things that help you grow.\n\nHave a larger team, department heads, or multiple profit centers within the business?\n\nYou can run this exercise at the department level that helps each profit center work on the profit-maximizing things. Then you will have each of your individual contributors/department heads be the ones who are responsible for doing the actual execution of these initiatives.\n\nStep 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nFrom here, we’re going to attack the initiatives we’ve chosen until they are complete/up and running.\n\nThen we simply repeat this exercise when setting new goals.\n\nIn our case, part of our goals just require us to invest more money into paid ads. So there’s a world where, once we do the first two initiatives, all we have to do is increase our ad spend and then continue to do the things we’re doing.\n\nAt that point, reaching our goals likely becomes an efficiency problem, which we would find by repeating the exercise.\n\nThen, we repeat this exercise every couple weeks/months/quarters for as long as we are in business.\n\nAnd that’s a wrap!\n\nHere’s a quick recap of my exact approach to setting goals:\n\n• Step 0: Understand goals are just math\n\n• Step 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\n• Step 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\n• Step 3: Quantify the gap between your goal and your current\n\n• Step 4: Identify if your bottleneck is volume or efficiency\n\n• Step 5: Brain dump list of all ways to solve that bottleneck\n\n• Step 6: Rank each item on Impact (1-5) and Effort (1-5)\n\n• Step 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\n• Step 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\n• Step 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\n• Step 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nGive this a try and report back.","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,150],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1985791229456498930","view_count":10980,"bookmark_count":19,"created_at":1762284497000,"favorite_count":204,"quote_count":3,"reply_count":84,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1985791229456498930","full_text":"The

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9. Enjoy the ride\n\nI can look back and smile on every single moment of my 4 years as an entrepreneur, even though I was not smiling in the moment.\n\nWhich means you can take the same approach now, no matter how challenging something is.\n\nEvery problem you face & overcome is writing a story you will talk about for the rest of your life. Lighten up and release the grip, it’s not as serious as you’re making it.

years ago I quit my full-time job on Wall Street\n\nHere is the exact series of events & realizations I had along the way:\n\n1. Got my dream job as a hedge fund trader, $120k/year my first year at age 22, thought I would want to do it forever\n\n2. 6 months in, realized that the people 15 years ahead of me did not live lives I wanted to live\n\n3. Realized I needed to find a way to passively find other opportunities while slowly plotting my escape\n\nThis led me to 𝕏 where I started following people talking about online business\n\n4. Realized I was going to have to enter a period of extreme intensity as I had to be at my desk in the office every day by 7 AM\n\nBegan waking up at 4:30 AM every day for a year, spent the first 2 hours of every day reading books on writing & business\n\n5. COVID hit, which meant I got to start working from home\n\nSuddenly realized that I did about 2 hours of actual work per day at my job, the rest was just pretending to work since everyone could see my screen\n\nQuickly created checklists for myself to streamline the actual things I was responsible for doing every day. Began to reinvest all the extra time into learning & writing\n\n6. Throughout 2020, I wrote a weekly newsletter called Dickie’s Digest\n\nAll I did was summarize podcasts & books I was reading & listening to that week as a forcing function to learn\n\nEvery Sunday, I would spend 4-5 hours writing my newsletter\n\nAfter 32 editions, I had about 200 subscribers\n\nSo I was ready to give up writing entirely\n\n7. September 2020, I decided to go from writing a weekly newsletter to writing a daily Atomic Essay or thread on 𝕏\n\nI wrote and published something every day for 30 days in a row\n\nDay 28, my first thread went viral\n\nOvernight I went from 200 newsletter subscribers to 1400 and from 250 𝕏 followers to 2000\n\n8. That viral thread ended up in the hands of a legendary copywriter, Craig Clemens\n\nHe DM’d me asking if I would do something similar for him, a distillation of his best ideas that were spread all over the internet across various blog posts & keynote speeches\n\nI accepted, and said I would do it for free\n\n9. I spent the weekend immersing myself in his worldview\n\nI listened to 10 keynotes and read at least 30 articles\n\nI packaged it all up nicely into 2 separate book outlines - one distilling his thoughts on copywriting. The other his thoughts on life. \n\nI sent it over to him and he was floored\n\nHis assistant wired me $5,000 and I thought it was a typo\n\nMy brain was completely broken that the words I wrote on the internet led me to getting paid that much\n\nI didn’t know it at the time, but I had accidentally stumbled into the world of ghostwriting \n\n10. That ghostwriting client sent a cold email connecting me with my now business partner Nicolas Cole\n\nThe email started saying “Not sure why, but I think you two should know each other. I’ll let you two take it from here”\n\nCole and I connected and instantly clicked\n\nBoth former gamers & former athletes who loved writing on the internet\n\n11. That 30-day personal writing challenge changed my life\n\nIt led me to meet tons of people I looked up to and generated my first $5,000 on the internet\n\nI knew I wanted to keep writing, but I also knew it would be hard to do it alone\n\nSo I tweeted out a simple tweet asking if anyone would like to join me for a 30-day writing challenge called Ship 30 for 30\n\nThe tweet blew up and had hundreds of replies\n\nI spun up a landing page and charged anyone who wanted to join $50 to enter, but I promised to give them their money back if they wrote all 30 days\n\n7 days later, there were 50 of us in Slack channel writing & publishing daily Atomic Essays\n\n12. I held 1:1 interviews with basically everyone in that cohort\n\nI wanted to know what they liked, what they didn’t like, why they joined, and what they would change if they could\n\nI collected testimonials from as many people as possible\n\nI wired back the money to anyone who wanted it, but most told me to keep it, so I donated it\n\n13. Now it was November 2020—cohort-based courses were exploding in popularity \n\nEveryone was working from home and armed with stimulus checks\n\nSo I decided to make the next cohort $99, and you didn’t get your money back\n\nI was terrified to charge something, but I did it anyway\n\nI fired off the launch email and the Stripe notifications started to pour in\n\n14. Fast forward to January 2021, and Ship 30 was starting to accelerate in popularity\n\nCole was a part of that cohort and gave a few guest Office Hours sessions to talk about his writing frameworks\n\nI quickly realized there was no way I was going to build a successful business just focused around building a writing habit & publishing your first piece of writing\n\nThere needed to be a full-blown curriculum and structure\n\nSo we partnered up 50/50 and began to build Ship 30 into the internet’s fastest-growing cohort-based course\n\n15. The next 12 months were the most intense 12 months of my life\n\nI woke up every day at 4:30 AM, worked out, then wrote for 3 hours\n\nI then worked a full day (remotely) at my full-time job, bouncing between Slack (where we hosted our cohort) and Microsoft Teams (where I had to communicate with my team internally)\n\nI scheduled all of our cohort calls for Friday at 12 PM because we had an internal policy at work that meetings were not allowed on Friday after that time\n\n16. We obsessed over making Ship 30 an incredible experience\n\nAt just $249, we had hundreds and hundreds of people sign up for a cohort every ~8 weeks. \n\nEvery cohort we improved something:\n\nBetter content\nBetter curriculum\nBetter accountability\n\nWe were obsessed with creating an experience people couldn’t help but tell their friends about\n\n17. Throughout the year, Ship 30 continued to accelerate, and so did my writing on 𝕏\n\nI wrote 3-5 tweets per day + 2 high-quality threads per week\n\nEvery tweet drove to our email list where we wrote educational emails 2x per week with a CTA to join the next cohort of Ship 30\n\nOne platform (𝕏)\nOne product (Ship 30)\nOne avatar (people who wanted to start writing online)\n\n18. And by the end of 2021, we crossed $1,000,000 in total revenue\n\nMy personal take home in 2021 was a little over $600,000\n$180k of that was from my full-time job\nThe other $420k was from Ship 30\n\nI had nearly tripled my W2 income from a side hustle in about 30 months since realizing that I needed to leave that job\n\n19. February 2022 rolls around and my annual bonus hits my bank account\n\nAt this point, it was a bigger financial risk for me to stay at my job than it was to leave\n\nBut I was absolutely terrified\n\nI thought Ship 30 might just be a flash in the pan\n\nI was walking away from a guaranteed $180k/year job that I worked tirelessly throughout college to unlock\n\nMy parents thought I was crazy\n\nHell, I thought I was crazy\n\nI have pages and pages of journal entries tirelessly weighing the pros & cons, modeling every scenario, reflecting as my future self, and more\n\nI was so incredibly risk averse that I almost said I had to prove it again in 2022 before I could finally pull the trigger\n\n20. But in the middle of February, I was on a walk with Cole going back and forth on whether I should quit\n\nI cannot remember the exact thing he said, but something clicked\n\nI think it was something along the lines of what decision would the person I want to become make?\n\nThat made the answer clear\n\nI hung up on him (literally) and walked inside my house, called my boss, and let him know I was putting in my 4 weeks of notice and was going to build a business on my own\n\n21. That was a little over 3 years ago now. Since then we’ve gone on to build a thriving, successful business\n\nThe hedge fund I used to work for ended up closing, and I likely would have been laid off in 2024 because of it. I am grateful every day that I ended up taking that bet on myself\n\nBut I’m also extremely grateful that I proceeded in such a risk-averse way.\n\nI made zero rushed decisions\nI was patient & mitigated my downside\n\nAnd along the way, I was able to put together a story like this one that can hopefully provide value or a roadmap to someone in a similar situation","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,281],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1978582500654948543","view_count":15460,"bookmark_count":115,"created_at":1760565803000,"favorite_count":199,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":37,"retweet_count":17,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1978582500654948543","full_text":"Current infinite pursuits:\n\n1.

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9.

the last ~18 months, I’ve been in build & manage mode. During that time, our team has grown from 12 to over 30 members.\n\nNow, the next constraint keeping our business from growing to the next level is generating more traffic & attention.\n\nIt will require entering a new season of increased creative output.\n\nHere are the 9 daily principles I'm using to get there:\n\nPrinciple #1: Have a defined vehicle for output\n\nBefore you can “increase your creative output,” you need to get specific on what that means.\n\n• What, specifically, are you going to commit to creating?\n\n• How often are you going to create it?\n\n• Where are you going to publish it?\n\nDo you have to stick with this cadence forever? No.\n\nBut you need some kind of commitment from the beginning.\n\nSo for me, that commitment is going to be publishing a weekly newsletter.\n\nThis is the same cadence I set for myself back in the beginning of 2020 when I first started writing online.\n\nUsing the Lean Writing method, I can turn this one newsletter into:\n\n• A weekly long-form YouTube video \n• 5-10 pieces of short-form content \n• 1-2 pieces of medium-form text content \n• 5-10 Instagram Reels\n\nPrinciple #2: Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\nYou have to create your own set of Sacred Hours you can fully commit to without interruption.\n\nFor me, that’s going to be the first 4 hours of the day.\n\nUsually 7 AM to 11 AM.\n\nThis 4-hour block usually leads to about 3 hours of actual writing time, broken up into two 90-minute blocks separated by a short walk.\n\nI find that trying to write for any longer leads to significantly less output over week-long periods.\n\nIf I can knock out two of these blocks in a day, it’s a huge win.\n\nNow, am I going to be super rigid about this? Absolutely not.\n\nSome days I’ll only write for an hour.\n\nOther days I’ll write for six hours.\n\nWhat matters is I have a default time that I commit to producing as many days as possible.\n\nPrinciple #3: Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\nThis may be the most important factor in maintaining your creative motivation & inspiration.\n\nIf you’re working in a dark space, or an office you don’t like, or in an uncomfortable cafe chair, or with too much noise, you won’t be excited to write.\n\nHowever, if you’re excited by the idea of where you work, you’re much more likely to spend time there.\n\nFor me, that means spending my creative time working outside of the house:\n\n• I love working outside\n\n• I love the ~10-minute walking ritual to my favorite cafe\n\n• I love the ability to drop whatever I’m working on & immediately take a walk\n\nSo at this point you’ve figured out what type of writing you will produce, when you’ll write, and where you’ll write.\n\nIn the next step we figure out what to write.\n\nPrinciple #4: Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\nYour subconscious is incredibly good at solving problems while you sleep.\n\nBut most people never tap into this because of how their evenings go.\n\nIf you go to bed doomscrolling, or consuming tons of information, or with tons of open loops, your brain is unsure what to work on.\n\nSo to prevent this overwhelm & unlock your subconscious brainpower, try this simple end-of-day brain dump routine:\n\n1. During the last few minutes before bed, take out your notebook\n\n2. Brain dump 5-10 bullet points on anything you learned that day or anything that’s on your mind to close the loop or revisit tomorrow\n\n3. Then brain dump another 5-10 bullet points on what you want to work on during your deep work session the next day\n\nThen, shut your notebook and go to sleep.\n\nPrinciple #5: Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\nIf you’re like me, your most excited mornings come when you wake up with a completely clear calendar.\n\nMy output on these days is 50-100% higher:\n\n• I have full freedom over how I will work that day\n• I have zero looming open loops I need to address later\n• I can go fully offline & disappear into deep work\n\nBut this requires an intentional process to maximize your meeting-free blocks:\n\n• Try to turn as many meetings asynchronous as possible\n\n• If a meeting is high-leverage, batch it to one day of the week\n\n• Be rigid in upholding your meeting rules\n\nAnd I put together a simple script you can use whenever someone wants to schedule a meeting:\n\n\"Hey [name], I’m currently heads down in a writing mode keeping a clear calendar on X-Y days of the week. But I can do A time or B time on ABC date if that works for you? Otherwise, happy to jam async if it’s more urgent.\"\n\nNow let’s dig into a couple more tactics that you may find helpful.\n\nPrinciple #6: Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\nYour phone is a creative vampire.\n\nEven if you’re not looking at it, it still whispers at you if it’s anywhere close.\n\nFor me, I’ve built my workflow around writing at a cafe with my phone still at home:\n\n• I do all of my writing on my iPad that doesn’t have any social media apps installed\n\n• I start all of my writing sessions with a handwritten brain dump to get the juices going\n\n• And I’ve added Apple Pay to my Garmin which means I can live as if I had my phone on me without it anywhere nearby\n\nIt’s amazing how much more creative you are when you eliminate distraction AND give yourself a vehicle to capture that inspiration by hand.\n\nPrinciple #7: Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\nFor you to stick with this new writing cadence, you need positive reinforcement.\n\nAnd the easiest way to do that?\n\nLook at charts that only go up.\n\nFor me, this will be:\n\n• Total newsletters published \n• Total newsletter views \n• Total newsletter likes\n\nThese metrics will always trend up as long as you keep writing.\n\nPrinciple #8: Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\nThe thing you most want to avoid is doomscrolling any given platform.\n\nThis immediately turns into creative overwhelm. The algorithm will show you so much content that you'll be paralyzed by all the opportunities.\n\nFor me, I'm going to stick to long-form YouTube and Substack creators for inspiration:\n\n• I’ll focus on studying the way they write, package, create, and iterate\n\n• I’ll use their titles & subject lines as inspiration for ideas I can package in my own way\n\n• I’ll look back at their first 50 videos & newsletters to see how they got started so I don’t compare my step 3 or 4 to someone else’s step 10\n\nThis should lead to a steady drop in total volume of content consumption.\n\nBut an increase in depth.\n\nAnd that’s where your best ideas will come from as your brain has space to synthesize.\n\nPrinciple #9: Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nIncreasing creative output has to be your first priority.\n\n• It has to be the thing you schedule in first \n• It has to be the thing you go to bed thinking about \n• It has to be the thing you wake up excited to work on\n\nIf you’re not in a creative season, that’s fine.\nBut don’t pretend to be.\n\nDon’t expect yourself to achieve high levels of output or deep creative clarity if you’re spread thin across dozens of different projects and initiatives.\n\nNot every season is a creative season.\n\nI haven’t been in one for roughly 18 months.\n\nBut as I enter into this one, it’s my number one focus.\n\nWhich means ruthlessly pruning my days of everything else.\n\nAaaand that’s it.\n\nTo recap all 9 principles:\n\n1. Have a defined vehicle for output\n\n2. Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\n3. Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\n4. Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\n5. Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\n6. Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\n7. Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\n8. Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\n9. Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nGive each of these a try, take what works and discard what doesn’t.\n\nIf you have any questions on a specific principle, leave a comment to let me know!","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,81],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983601820237734305","view_count":11670,"bookmark_count":29,"created_at":1761762502000,"favorite_count":177,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":65,"retweet_count":14,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983601820237734305","full_text":"You are 30 days of daily writing away from a completely different life trajectory","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,260],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983655959403610523","view_count":12630,"bookmark_count":84,"created_at":1761775409000,"favorite_count":280,"quote_count":6,"reply_count":115,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983655959403610523","full_text":"Your life will get a lot easier when you view everything as a skill issue\n\nOut of shape?

works, let’s walk through a real example:\n\nOur front-end sales process within our Premium Ghostwriting Academy.\n\nStep 0: Understand goals are just math\n\nThis is the most important insight to understand when setting goals in your business.\n\nThe gap between where you are and where you want to be is one number. That number is made up by an equation that has input metrics + efficiency metrics.\n\nYour job is to analyze that equation and find out the part of the equation that needs fixing.\n\nThe part that needs fixing will create a new demand of you—some kind of new initiative you’re not currently doing but is required.\n\nThose demands will force actions that you need to work on every day until those demands are met & the equation looks like you want.\n\nThat’s it.\n\nEverything that is not improving your equation is a distraction.\n\nAnd so most of business goal setting is around getting extremely clear on the gap, the demands it creates, the actions that fulfill those demands, and then ignoring everything else and staying focused on those few critical actions.\n\nLet’s walk through what that looks like.\n\nStep 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\nWe want to hit $500k of new front end cash collected for PGA.\n\nStep 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\nWe did $330k of front end new cash collected last month.\n\nStep 3: Quantify the gap between goal & current\n\nWe are $170k short of our goal.\n\nStep 4: Identify if you have a volume or efficiency bottleneck\n\nWe have an efficiency bottleneck if we could reach our goal by more efficiently converting the number of leads coming in.\n\nWe have a volume bottleneck if we are at KPI on all of our efficiency metrics and simply need more people coming through.\n\nSo for our business, we are at “good enough” KPI to scale based on all of our efficiency metrics.\n\nMarketing efficiency:\n\n• Landing page conversion: 35%\n• % of leads who fill out an app: ~45%\n• % of apps that we keep on the calendar: 20%\n• Lead to kept call ratio: ~8%\n\nAll of these are good enough that they are not worth overly optimizing, especially given how much of it comes from organic.\n\nSales efficiency:\n\n• 75% show rate\n• 75% cash collected\n• 22% close rate @ $6.8k price point\n• = $800 per booked call on average\n\nBoth of our efficiency ratios for sales & marketing are in good shape.\n\nThis means we need to turn all of our attention toward volume.\n\nWe can now calculate the exact amount of additional volume we need to drive.\n\n• $170k cash collected short\n• @ $800 per booked call average cash collected\n• = 212 additional calls per month\n• = 9 more calls per day or 63 more calls per week\n\nWe currently book around 400 calls per month, so we need to raise that number to 600.\n\nSo, how do we do that?\n\nStep 5: Brainstorm all the ways you can fix that bottleneck\n\nIf we needed to book 212 more calls, what are all the things we could do?\n\nThe best way to approach this is through the “more/better/new” framework.\n\nFirst, look at all the places you’re currently generating traffic and make a list of all the places you could do “more.”\n\nThis is your highest risk-adjusted return and return on effort.\n\nHere’s some places we could do “more”:\n\n• More viral drops on LinkedIn? Already at 1x per week, likely capped out.\n\n• More posting on Instagram? Posting 2x per day, capped out.\n\n• More emails? Sending daily email, capped out.\n\n• More YouTube videos? Opportunity here.\n\nSo from that list, we have 2 clear solutions:\n\n1. Post more YouTube videos\n\n2. Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk\n\nNow what about “better?”\n\nWe want to look at all the places we’re currently posting and ask if there are any volume-generating areas that we could do things better to get more out of the current slots we’re using.\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn? Maybe.\n• Better posts on Instagram? Maybe.\n• Better emails? Likely some result.\n• Better YouTube videos? Not posting right now so need to do more first.\n\nSo from that list we have:\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Better posts on Instagram.\n• Better emails.\n\nLastly we want to think about “new.”\n\nWhat are all the things we aren’t currently doing that we think could help us generate more calls?\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\n• Launch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge → Basically a webinar on steroids.\n\nAlright now we have a list of all the things we could do.\n\nLet’s sort them into one list:\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\nLaunch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge.\n• Start making better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Start making better posts on Instagram.\n• Start writing better emails.\n• Post more YouTube videos.\n• Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk.\n\nGreat—we have a good mix of things we could do more of, things we could do better, and new things we need to do.\n\nNow let’s stack rank these to see which are worth doing.\n\nFor each of these initiatives, we need to understand we have limited resources and can only tackle so many.\n\nSo we want to choose the ones that have the highest likelihood of getting us closer to our 212 additional booked calls goal relative to the amount of effort it takes.\n\nWe are going to rank them across two dimensions:\n\n1. Impact (1-5). 5 being we think it has the potential to book an additional 200 calls if we JUST did that thing, 1 being it’s only likely to book a handful more calls.\n\n2. Effort (1-5). 5 being this would be extremely resource intensive with the entire team / lots of time & effort deployed on it, 1 being a very quick win you could just “do” or “decide on” in under an hour.\n\nOnce we’ve ranked them on these two dimensions, we’re going to calculate an “Impact/Effort Ratio” that will be our guiding metric for choosing what to work on.\n\nWith that metric calculated, we will re-sort our potential project list from highest to lowest impact/effort ratio, then get to work on the 3 highest ranking projects:\n\nStep 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\nIn our current scenario, we actually don’t have any 1-ranked effort projects, so we will skip this step.\n\nWe have built a culture that usually attacks these opportunities the second they present themselves, so there is nothing glaringly easy to work on.\n\nStep 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\nSo for us, the first one is just a “decision.”\n\nWe are going to go much bigger for this webinar and risk more to get more people to show up. We’re going to run a VIP version that hopefully lets us get a good chunk of ad spend back before the event that de-risks things by 30-50% before we even begin.\n\nNext we’re going to build a low-ticket $27 product funnel.\n\nThis will let us:\n\n• Run a low-ticket cold funnel\n\n• Have an asset to create VIP webinars\n\n• And have a new product that our organic audience can buy to reengage them\n\nThis will take significant amounts of team effort, but our hypothesis is that effort is worth it.\n\nLastly we’re going to invest in writing better emails.\n\nTo do that, we need to:\n\n• Diversify the types of emails we send\n\n• Implement more story-driven narrative-type emails that build more emotional resonance with us/our story\n\n• And provide even more high-quality education that builds reader trusts and makes applying to PGA more likely\n\nFrom here the steps/rules start to diverge based on whether you are a small-team/solo operator or have a more fleshed out team.\n\nStep 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\nHave a small team or operate solo?\n\nYou are going to have to block time to attack these while continuing to run all the other things you have going on in the business. If you want to grow, you have to do all the work you’re currently doing to fulfill + allocate extra effort toward the things that help you grow.\n\nHave a larger team, department heads, or multiple profit centers within the business?\n\nYou can run this exercise at the department level that helps each profit center work on the profit-maximizing things. Then you will have each of your individual contributors/department heads be the ones who are responsible for doing the actual execution of these initiatives.\n\nStep 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nFrom here, we’re going to attack the initiatives we’ve chosen until they are complete/up and running.\n\nThen we simply repeat this exercise when setting new goals.\n\nIn our case, part of our goals just require us to invest more money into paid ads. So there’s a world where, once we do the first two initiatives, all we have to do is increase our ad spend and then continue to do the things we’re doing.\n\nAt that point, reaching our goals likely becomes an efficiency problem, which we would find by repeating the exercise.\n\nThen, we repeat this exercise every couple weeks/months/quarters for as long as we are in business.\n\nAnd that’s a wrap!\n\nHere’s a quick recap of my exact approach to setting goals:\n\n• Step 0: Understand goals are just math\n\n• Step 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\n• Step 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\n• Step 3: Quantify the gap between your goal and your current\n\n• Step 4: Identify if your bottleneck is volume or efficiency\n\n• Step 5: Brain dump list of all ways to solve that bottleneck\n\n• Step 6: Rank each item on Impact (1-5) and Effort (1-5)\n\n• Step 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\n• Step 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\n• Step 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\n• Step 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nGive this a try and report back.","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,150],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1985791229456498930","view_count":10980,"bookmark_count":19,"created_at":1762284497000,"favorite_count":204,"quote_count":3,"reply_count":84,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1985791229456498930","full_text":"The

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9. Enjoy the ride\n\nI can look back and smile on every single moment of my 4 years as an entrepreneur, even though I was not smiling in the moment.\n\nWhich means you can take the same approach now, no matter how challenging something is.\n\nEvery problem you face & overcome is writing a story you will talk about for the rest of your life. Lighten up and release the grip, it’s not as serious as you’re making it.

years ago I quit my full-time job on Wall Street\n\nHere is the exact series of events & realizations I had along the way:\n\n1. Got my dream job as a hedge fund trader, $120k/year my first year at age 22, thought I would want to do it forever\n\n2. 6 months in, realized that the people 15 years ahead of me did not live lives I wanted to live\n\n3. Realized I needed to find a way to passively find other opportunities while slowly plotting my escape\n\nThis led me to 𝕏 where I started following people talking about online business\n\n4. Realized I was going to have to enter a period of extreme intensity as I had to be at my desk in the office every day by 7 AM\n\nBegan waking up at 4:30 AM every day for a year, spent the first 2 hours of every day reading books on writing & business\n\n5. COVID hit, which meant I got to start working from home\n\nSuddenly realized that I did about 2 hours of actual work per day at my job, the rest was just pretending to work since everyone could see my screen\n\nQuickly created checklists for myself to streamline the actual things I was responsible for doing every day. Began to reinvest all the extra time into learning & writing\n\n6. Throughout 2020, I wrote a weekly newsletter called Dickie’s Digest\n\nAll I did was summarize podcasts & books I was reading & listening to that week as a forcing function to learn\n\nEvery Sunday, I would spend 4-5 hours writing my newsletter\n\nAfter 32 editions, I had about 200 subscribers\n\nSo I was ready to give up writing entirely\n\n7. September 2020, I decided to go from writing a weekly newsletter to writing a daily Atomic Essay or thread on 𝕏\n\nI wrote and published something every day for 30 days in a row\n\nDay 28, my first thread went viral\n\nOvernight I went from 200 newsletter subscribers to 1400 and from 250 𝕏 followers to 2000\n\n8. That viral thread ended up in the hands of a legendary copywriter, Craig Clemens\n\nHe DM’d me asking if I would do something similar for him, a distillation of his best ideas that were spread all over the internet across various blog posts & keynote speeches\n\nI accepted, and said I would do it for free\n\n9. I spent the weekend immersing myself in his worldview\n\nI listened to 10 keynotes and read at least 30 articles\n\nI packaged it all up nicely into 2 separate book outlines - one distilling his thoughts on copywriting. The other his thoughts on life. \n\nI sent it over to him and he was floored\n\nHis assistant wired me $5,000 and I thought it was a typo\n\nMy brain was completely broken that the words I wrote on the internet led me to getting paid that much\n\nI didn’t know it at the time, but I had accidentally stumbled into the world of ghostwriting \n\n10. That ghostwriting client sent a cold email connecting me with my now business partner Nicolas Cole\n\nThe email started saying “Not sure why, but I think you two should know each other. I’ll let you two take it from here”\n\nCole and I connected and instantly clicked\n\nBoth former gamers & former athletes who loved writing on the internet\n\n11. That 30-day personal writing challenge changed my life\n\nIt led me to meet tons of people I looked up to and generated my first $5,000 on the internet\n\nI knew I wanted to keep writing, but I also knew it would be hard to do it alone\n\nSo I tweeted out a simple tweet asking if anyone would like to join me for a 30-day writing challenge called Ship 30 for 30\n\nThe tweet blew up and had hundreds of replies\n\nI spun up a landing page and charged anyone who wanted to join $50 to enter, but I promised to give them their money back if they wrote all 30 days\n\n7 days later, there were 50 of us in Slack channel writing & publishing daily Atomic Essays\n\n12. I held 1:1 interviews with basically everyone in that cohort\n\nI wanted to know what they liked, what they didn’t like, why they joined, and what they would change if they could\n\nI collected testimonials from as many people as possible\n\nI wired back the money to anyone who wanted it, but most told me to keep it, so I donated it\n\n13. Now it was November 2020—cohort-based courses were exploding in popularity \n\nEveryone was working from home and armed with stimulus checks\n\nSo I decided to make the next cohort $99, and you didn’t get your money back\n\nI was terrified to charge something, but I did it anyway\n\nI fired off the launch email and the Stripe notifications started to pour in\n\n14. Fast forward to January 2021, and Ship 30 was starting to accelerate in popularity\n\nCole was a part of that cohort and gave a few guest Office Hours sessions to talk about his writing frameworks\n\nI quickly realized there was no way I was going to build a successful business just focused around building a writing habit & publishing your first piece of writing\n\nThere needed to be a full-blown curriculum and structure\n\nSo we partnered up 50/50 and began to build Ship 30 into the internet’s fastest-growing cohort-based course\n\n15. The next 12 months were the most intense 12 months of my life\n\nI woke up every day at 4:30 AM, worked out, then wrote for 3 hours\n\nI then worked a full day (remotely) at my full-time job, bouncing between Slack (where we hosted our cohort) and Microsoft Teams (where I had to communicate with my team internally)\n\nI scheduled all of our cohort calls for Friday at 12 PM because we had an internal policy at work that meetings were not allowed on Friday after that time\n\n16. We obsessed over making Ship 30 an incredible experience\n\nAt just $249, we had hundreds and hundreds of people sign up for a cohort every ~8 weeks. \n\nEvery cohort we improved something:\n\nBetter content\nBetter curriculum\nBetter accountability\n\nWe were obsessed with creating an experience people couldn’t help but tell their friends about\n\n17. Throughout the year, Ship 30 continued to accelerate, and so did my writing on 𝕏\n\nI wrote 3-5 tweets per day + 2 high-quality threads per week\n\nEvery tweet drove to our email list where we wrote educational emails 2x per week with a CTA to join the next cohort of Ship 30\n\nOne platform (𝕏)\nOne product (Ship 30)\nOne avatar (people who wanted to start writing online)\n\n18. And by the end of 2021, we crossed $1,000,000 in total revenue\n\nMy personal take home in 2021 was a little over $600,000\n$180k of that was from my full-time job\nThe other $420k was from Ship 30\n\nI had nearly tripled my W2 income from a side hustle in about 30 months since realizing that I needed to leave that job\n\n19. February 2022 rolls around and my annual bonus hits my bank account\n\nAt this point, it was a bigger financial risk for me to stay at my job than it was to leave\n\nBut I was absolutely terrified\n\nI thought Ship 30 might just be a flash in the pan\n\nI was walking away from a guaranteed $180k/year job that I worked tirelessly throughout college to unlock\n\nMy parents thought I was crazy\n\nHell, I thought I was crazy\n\nI have pages and pages of journal entries tirelessly weighing the pros & cons, modeling every scenario, reflecting as my future self, and more\n\nI was so incredibly risk averse that I almost said I had to prove it again in 2022 before I could finally pull the trigger\n\n20. But in the middle of February, I was on a walk with Cole going back and forth on whether I should quit\n\nI cannot remember the exact thing he said, but something clicked\n\nI think it was something along the lines of what decision would the person I want to become make?\n\nThat made the answer clear\n\nI hung up on him (literally) and walked inside my house, called my boss, and let him know I was putting in my 4 weeks of notice and was going to build a business on my own\n\n21. That was a little over 3 years ago now. Since then we’ve gone on to build a thriving, successful business\n\nThe hedge fund I used to work for ended up closing, and I likely would have been laid off in 2024 because of it. I am grateful every day that I ended up taking that bet on myself\n\nBut I’m also extremely grateful that I proceeded in such a risk-averse way.\n\nI made zero rushed decisions\nI was patient & mitigated my downside\n\nAnd along the way, I was able to put together a story like this one that can hopefully provide value or a roadmap to someone in a similar situation","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,281],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1978582500654948543","view_count":15460,"bookmark_count":115,"created_at":1760565803000,"favorite_count":199,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":37,"retweet_count":17,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1978582500654948543","full_text":"Current infinite pursuits:\n\n1.

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9.

the last ~18 months, I’ve been in build & manage mode. During that time, our team has grown from 12 to over 30 members.\n\nNow, the next constraint keeping our business from growing to the next level is generating more traffic & attention.\n\nIt will require entering a new season of increased creative output.\n\nHere are the 9 daily principles I'm using to get there:\n\nPrinciple #1: Have a defined vehicle for output\n\nBefore you can “increase your creative output,” you need to get specific on what that means.\n\n• What, specifically, are you going to commit to creating?\n\n• How often are you going to create it?\n\n• Where are you going to publish it?\n\nDo you have to stick with this cadence forever? No.\n\nBut you need some kind of commitment from the beginning.\n\nSo for me, that commitment is going to be publishing a weekly newsletter.\n\nThis is the same cadence I set for myself back in the beginning of 2020 when I first started writing online.\n\nUsing the Lean Writing method, I can turn this one newsletter into:\n\n• A weekly long-form YouTube video \n• 5-10 pieces of short-form content \n• 1-2 pieces of medium-form text content \n• 5-10 Instagram Reels\n\nPrinciple #2: Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\nYou have to create your own set of Sacred Hours you can fully commit to without interruption.\n\nFor me, that’s going to be the first 4 hours of the day.\n\nUsually 7 AM to 11 AM.\n\nThis 4-hour block usually leads to about 3 hours of actual writing time, broken up into two 90-minute blocks separated by a short walk.\n\nI find that trying to write for any longer leads to significantly less output over week-long periods.\n\nIf I can knock out two of these blocks in a day, it’s a huge win.\n\nNow, am I going to be super rigid about this? Absolutely not.\n\nSome days I’ll only write for an hour.\n\nOther days I’ll write for six hours.\n\nWhat matters is I have a default time that I commit to producing as many days as possible.\n\nPrinciple #3: Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\nThis may be the most important factor in maintaining your creative motivation & inspiration.\n\nIf you’re working in a dark space, or an office you don’t like, or in an uncomfortable cafe chair, or with too much noise, you won’t be excited to write.\n\nHowever, if you’re excited by the idea of where you work, you’re much more likely to spend time there.\n\nFor me, that means spending my creative time working outside of the house:\n\n• I love working outside\n\n• I love the ~10-minute walking ritual to my favorite cafe\n\n• I love the ability to drop whatever I’m working on & immediately take a walk\n\nSo at this point you’ve figured out what type of writing you will produce, when you’ll write, and where you’ll write.\n\nIn the next step we figure out what to write.\n\nPrinciple #4: Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\nYour subconscious is incredibly good at solving problems while you sleep.\n\nBut most people never tap into this because of how their evenings go.\n\nIf you go to bed doomscrolling, or consuming tons of information, or with tons of open loops, your brain is unsure what to work on.\n\nSo to prevent this overwhelm & unlock your subconscious brainpower, try this simple end-of-day brain dump routine:\n\n1. During the last few minutes before bed, take out your notebook\n\n2. Brain dump 5-10 bullet points on anything you learned that day or anything that’s on your mind to close the loop or revisit tomorrow\n\n3. Then brain dump another 5-10 bullet points on what you want to work on during your deep work session the next day\n\nThen, shut your notebook and go to sleep.\n\nPrinciple #5: Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\nIf you’re like me, your most excited mornings come when you wake up with a completely clear calendar.\n\nMy output on these days is 50-100% higher:\n\n• I have full freedom over how I will work that day\n• I have zero looming open loops I need to address later\n• I can go fully offline & disappear into deep work\n\nBut this requires an intentional process to maximize your meeting-free blocks:\n\n• Try to turn as many meetings asynchronous as possible\n\n• If a meeting is high-leverage, batch it to one day of the week\n\n• Be rigid in upholding your meeting rules\n\nAnd I put together a simple script you can use whenever someone wants to schedule a meeting:\n\n\"Hey [name], I’m currently heads down in a writing mode keeping a clear calendar on X-Y days of the week. But I can do A time or B time on ABC date if that works for you? Otherwise, happy to jam async if it’s more urgent.\"\n\nNow let’s dig into a couple more tactics that you may find helpful.\n\nPrinciple #6: Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\nYour phone is a creative vampire.\n\nEven if you’re not looking at it, it still whispers at you if it’s anywhere close.\n\nFor me, I’ve built my workflow around writing at a cafe with my phone still at home:\n\n• I do all of my writing on my iPad that doesn’t have any social media apps installed\n\n• I start all of my writing sessions with a handwritten brain dump to get the juices going\n\n• And I’ve added Apple Pay to my Garmin which means I can live as if I had my phone on me without it anywhere nearby\n\nIt’s amazing how much more creative you are when you eliminate distraction AND give yourself a vehicle to capture that inspiration by hand.\n\nPrinciple #7: Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\nFor you to stick with this new writing cadence, you need positive reinforcement.\n\nAnd the easiest way to do that?\n\nLook at charts that only go up.\n\nFor me, this will be:\n\n• Total newsletters published \n• Total newsletter views \n• Total newsletter likes\n\nThese metrics will always trend up as long as you keep writing.\n\nPrinciple #8: Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\nThe thing you most want to avoid is doomscrolling any given platform.\n\nThis immediately turns into creative overwhelm. The algorithm will show you so much content that you'll be paralyzed by all the opportunities.\n\nFor me, I'm going to stick to long-form YouTube and Substack creators for inspiration:\n\n• I’ll focus on studying the way they write, package, create, and iterate\n\n• I’ll use their titles & subject lines as inspiration for ideas I can package in my own way\n\n• I’ll look back at their first 50 videos & newsletters to see how they got started so I don’t compare my step 3 or 4 to someone else’s step 10\n\nThis should lead to a steady drop in total volume of content consumption.\n\nBut an increase in depth.\n\nAnd that’s where your best ideas will come from as your brain has space to synthesize.\n\nPrinciple #9: Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nIncreasing creative output has to be your first priority.\n\n• It has to be the thing you schedule in first \n• It has to be the thing you go to bed thinking about \n• It has to be the thing you wake up excited to work on\n\nIf you’re not in a creative season, that’s fine.\nBut don’t pretend to be.\n\nDon’t expect yourself to achieve high levels of output or deep creative clarity if you’re spread thin across dozens of different projects and initiatives.\n\nNot every season is a creative season.\n\nI haven’t been in one for roughly 18 months.\n\nBut as I enter into this one, it’s my number one focus.\n\nWhich means ruthlessly pruning my days of everything else.\n\nAaaand that’s it.\n\nTo recap all 9 principles:\n\n1. Have a defined vehicle for output\n\n2. Set a dedicated time to produce every day\n\n3. Work in an environment that maximizes motivation & flow\n\n4. Brain dump in the evening on what you’ll write tomorrow\n\n5. Maximize your blocks without meetings\n\n6. Spend more time without your phone & only a small handwritten notebook\n\n7. Measure cumulative metrics for sustained motivation\n\n8. Prune your sources of inspiration down to 2-3\n\n9. Make creative work your daily non-negotiable\n\nGive each of these a try, take what works and discard what doesn’t.\n\nIf you have any questions on a specific principle, leave a comment to let me know!","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,81],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983601820237734305","view_count":11670,"bookmark_count":29,"created_at":1761762502000,"favorite_count":177,"quote_count":1,"reply_count":65,"retweet_count":14,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983601820237734305","full_text":"You are 30 days of daily writing away from a completely different life trajectory","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,260],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1983655959403610523","view_count":12630,"bookmark_count":84,"created_at":1761775409000,"favorite_count":280,"quote_count":6,"reply_count":115,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1983655959403610523","full_text":"Your life will get a lot easier when you view everything as a skill issue\n\nOut of shape?

\n\nStep 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\nStep 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nTo help you see how this works, let’s walk through a real example:\n\nOur front-end sales process within our Premium Ghostwriting Academy.\n\nStep 0: Understand goals are just math\n\nThis is the most important insight to understand when setting goals in your business.\n\nThe gap between where you are and where you want to be is one number. That number is made up by an equation that has input metrics + efficiency metrics.\n\nYour job is to analyze that equation and find out the part of the equation that needs fixing.\n\nThe part that needs fixing will create a new demand of you—some kind of new initiative you’re not currently doing but is required.\n\nThose demands will force actions that you need to work on every day until those demands are met & the equation looks like you want.\n\nThat’s it.\n\nEverything that is not improving your equation is a distraction.\n\nAnd so most of business goal setting is around getting extremely clear on the gap, the demands it creates, the actions that fulfill those demands, and then ignoring everything else and staying focused on those few critical actions.\n\nLet’s walk through what that looks like.\n\nStep 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\nWe want to hit $500k of new front end cash collected for PGA.\n\nStep 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\nWe did $330k of front end new cash collected last month.\n\nStep 3: Quantify the gap between goal & current\n\nWe are $170k short of our goal.\n\nStep 4: Identify if you have a volume or efficiency bottleneck\n\nWe have an efficiency bottleneck if we could reach our goal by more efficiently converting the number of leads coming in.\n\nWe have a volume bottleneck if we are at KPI on all of our efficiency metrics and simply need more people coming through.\n\nSo for our business, we are at “good enough” KPI to scale based on all of our efficiency metrics.\n\nMarketing efficiency:\n\n• Landing page conversion: 35%\n• % of leads who fill out an app: ~45%\n• % of apps that we keep on the calendar: 20%\n• Lead to kept call ratio: ~8%\n\nAll of these are good enough that they are not worth overly optimizing, especially given how much of it comes from organic.\n\nSales efficiency:\n\n• 75% show rate\n• 75% cash collected\n• 22% close rate @ $6.8k price point\n• = $800 per booked call on average\n\nBoth of our efficiency ratios for sales & marketing are in good shape.\n\nThis means we need to turn all of our attention toward volume.\n\nWe can now calculate the exact amount of additional volume we need to drive.\n\n• $170k cash collected short\n• @ $800 per booked call average cash collected\n• = 212 additional calls per month\n• = 9 more calls per day or 63 more calls per week\n\nWe currently book around 400 calls per month, so we need to raise that number to 600.\n\nSo, how do we do that?\n\nStep 5: Brainstorm all the ways you can fix that bottleneck\n\nIf we needed to book 212 more calls, what are all the things we could do?\n\nThe best way to approach this is through the “more/better/new” framework.\n\nFirst, look at all the places you’re currently generating traffic and make a list of all the places you could do “more.”\n\nThis is your highest risk-adjusted return and return on effort.\n\nHere’s some places we could do “more”:\n\n• More viral drops on LinkedIn? Already at 1x per week, likely capped out.\n\n• More posting on Instagram? Posting 2x per day, capped out.\n\n• More emails? Sending daily email, capped out.\n\n• More YouTube videos? Opportunity here.\n\nSo from that list, we have 2 clear solutions:\n\n1. Post more YouTube videos\n\n2. Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk\n\nNow what about “better?”\n\nWe want to look at all the places we’re currently posting and ask if there are any volume-generating areas that we could do things better to get more out of the current slots we’re using.\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn? Maybe.\n• Better posts on Instagram? Maybe.\n• Better emails? Likely some result.\n• Better YouTube videos? Not posting right now so need to do more first.\n\nSo from that list we have:\n\n• Better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Better posts on Instagram.\n• Better emails.\n\nLastly we want to think about “new.”\n\nWhat are all the things we aren’t currently doing that we think could help us generate more calls?\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\n• Launch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge → Basically a webinar on steroids.\n\nAlright now we have a list of all the things we could do.\n\nLet’s sort them into one list:\n\n• Start having a daily outbound dial cadence to our entire list of leads to maximize self sets → Great idea.\n\nLaunch a low-ticket funnel that allows us to have a ≤ 7-day payback period on the ads we run to get more people into our ecosystem → Also a great idea.\n\n• Run a paid 3-day “Ghostwriting Clients” challenge.\n• Start making better posts on LinkedIn.\n• Start making better posts on Instagram.\n• Start writing better emails.\n• Post more YouTube videos.\n• Increase ad spend on our webinar to get more people to show up live and here us talk.\n\nGreat—we have a good mix of things we could do more of, things we could do better, and new things we need to do.\n\nNow let’s stack rank these to see which are worth doing.\n\nFor each of these initiatives, we need to understand we have limited resources and can only tackle so many.\n\nSo we want to choose the ones that have the highest likelihood of getting us closer to our 212 additional booked calls goal relative to the amount of effort it takes.\n\nWe are going to rank them across two dimensions:\n\n1. Impact (1-5). 5 being we think it has the potential to book an additional 200 calls if we JUST did that thing, 1 being it’s only likely to book a handful more calls.\n\n2. Effort (1-5). 5 being this would be extremely resource intensive with the entire team / lots of time & effort deployed on it, 1 being a very quick win you could just “do” or “decide on” in under an hour.\n\nOnce we’ve ranked them on these two dimensions, we’re going to calculate an “Impact/Effort Ratio” that will be our guiding metric for choosing what to work on.\n\nWith that metric calculated, we will re-sort our potential project list from highest to lowest impact/effort ratio, then get to work on the 3 highest ranking projects:\n\nStep 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\nIn our current scenario, we actually don’t have any 1-ranked effort projects, so we will skip this step.\n\nWe have built a culture that usually attacks these opportunities the second they present themselves, so there is nothing glaringly easy to work on.\n\nStep 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\nSo for us, the first one is just a “decision.”\n\nWe are going to go much bigger for this webinar and risk more to get more people to show up. We’re going to run a VIP version that hopefully lets us get a good chunk of ad spend back before the event that de-risks things by 30-50% before we even begin.\n\nNext we’re going to build a low-ticket $27 product funnel.\n\nThis will let us:\n\n• Run a low-ticket cold funnel\n\n• Have an asset to create VIP webinars\n\n• And have a new product that our organic audience can buy to reengage them\n\nThis will take significant amounts of team effort, but our hypothesis is that effort is worth it.\n\nLastly we’re going to invest in writing better emails.\n\nTo do that, we need to:\n\n• Diversify the types of emails we send\n\n• Implement more story-driven narrative-type emails that build more emotional resonance with us/our story\n\n• And provide even more high-quality education that builds reader trusts and makes applying to PGA more likely\n\nFrom here the steps/rules start to diverge based on whether you are a small-team/solo operator or have a more fleshed out team.\n\nStep 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\nHave a small team or operate solo?\n\nYou are going to have to block time to attack these while continuing to run all the other things you have going on in the business. If you want to grow, you have to do all the work you’re currently doing to fulfill + allocate extra effort toward the things that help you grow.\n\nHave a larger team, department heads, or multiple profit centers within the business?\n\nYou can run this exercise at the department level that helps each profit center work on the profit-maximizing things. Then you will have each of your individual contributors/department heads be the ones who are responsible for doing the actual execution of these initiatives.\n\nStep 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nFrom here, we’re going to attack the initiatives we’ve chosen until they are complete/up and running.\n\nThen we simply repeat this exercise when setting new goals.\n\nIn our case, part of our goals just require us to invest more money into paid ads. So there’s a world where, once we do the first two initiatives, all we have to do is increase our ad spend and then continue to do the things we’re doing.\n\nAt that point, reaching our goals likely becomes an efficiency problem, which we would find by repeating the exercise.\n\nThen, we repeat this exercise every couple weeks/months/quarters for as long as we are in business.\n\nAnd that’s a wrap!\n\nHere’s a quick recap of my exact approach to setting goals:\n\n• Step 0: Understand goals are just math\n\n• Step 1: Identify a monthly revenue goal\n\n• Step 2: Identify your current trailing monthly revenue\n\n• Step 3: Quantify the gap between your goal and your current\n\n• Step 4: Identify if your bottleneck is volume or efficiency\n\n• Step 5: Brain dump list of all ways to solve that bottleneck\n\n• Step 6: Rank each item on Impact (1-5) and Effort (1-5)\n\n• Step 7: Attack each 1 Effort “Low-Hanging Fruit”\n\n• Step 8: Set 1-3 strategic high-impact initiatives\n\n• Step 9: Block 3 hours per day to work on just that most important initiative until it is complete\n\n• Step 10: Repeat the exercise to identify the new thing to work on\n\nGive this a try and report back.","in_reply_to_user_id_str":null,"in_reply_to_status_id_str":null,"is_quote_status":0,"is_ai":null,"ai_score":null},{"bookmarked":false,"display_text_range":[0,150],"entities":{"hashtags":[],"symbols":[],"timestamps":[],"urls":[],"user_mentions":[]},"favorited":false,"lang":"en","retweeted":false,"fact_check":null,"id":"1985791229456498930","view_count":10980,"bookmark_count":19,"created_at":1762284497000,"favorite_count":204,"quote_count":3,"reply_count":84,"retweet_count":19,"user_id_str":"1286341463597604864","conversation_id_str":"1985791229456498930","full_text":"The

Speed is king\n\nYour goal as an entrepreneur is to compress time. Build things faster. Answer questions faster. Collect cash faster. Respond to people faster. \n\nThis does not mean act recklessly, but it does mean questioning the tempo & timeline of the way you currently do things yourself & within your organization. Default to end of hour, then end of day. \n\nDo not let days go by with unanswered questions or unsolved problems. \n\n2. Raise your standards\n\nYou are exactly where you are because you tolerate it. Your employees perform exactly how they do because you tolerate it. Put simply, growth requires a raising of the minimum amount of performance you tolerate. \n\nBe honest with yourself that you’re tolerating a level of performance that is below what is necessary for you to get to where you want to go.\n\nThat is the first step.\n\nThe next step is resetting the bar for yourself and the people you work with, which might be extremely challenging & uncomfortable, but that is what’s required.\n\n3. Think bigger—no one else will\n\nTo raise your standards, you must have something that motivates you to put forth new discretionary effort.\n\nThis will fall into either material goods, experiences, family impact, social impact, or customer impact. You tolerate the current level of your business because (whether consciously or subconsciously) is meeting the demands you’ve placed on it.\n\nSo if you’re stuck, take the time to reevaluate the goals you’ve set, raise them, and define what new behaviors are needed from you to get there.\n\nThen, uphold those behaviors as your new standard.\n\n4. Profit, profit, profit\n\nYou cannot pay yourself with revenue.\n\nYou cannot feed your family with revenue.\n\nYou can do quite literally nothing of importance with revenue.\n\nYou must obsess over the profitability of your business. You are not a charity. You are not building something just to pay the ad platforms + your team while you work 90 hour weeks. You are in business to make money and build wealth, so prioritize that.\n\nRuthlessly prune your organization of waste.\n\nHire only when doing so will directly contribute to more profit in your business, either by new business generation or removing yourself from an activity that frees up time to reinvest in something more profitable.\n\nAnd please for the love of god do not take advice from ANYONE who is talking nothing but revenue numbers without a single ounce of profit talk. \n\n5. Data, then decisions\n\nDoing things is easy.\n\nFiguring out the right things to do is hard. And it’s hard mostly because you lack the information to make the right decision.\n\nWhich is why you need a tracking system that makes decisions for you. If you knew exactly what to do to grow your business, you would 100% do it. You are an action taker that has gotten this far.\n\nSo if you aren’t growing, it’s time to invest in data. \n\n6. Do the money math\n\nEvery single goal you have in this world is a simple set of equations.\n\nAnd that’s especially true in business.\n\nYou should have crystal clear models of everything you’re building toward, every marketing platform, sales process, payroll allocation, each should be modeled well in advance so you know exactly toward what you are building.\n\nBecome a wizard at modeling such that you take all the guesswork out of your operation.\n\n7. Solve in sequence\n\nThe people who move fastest in business string together successive runs of working on the exact right thing, in a row, at the expense of everything else they could work on, for months and years on end.\n\nAnd that is the discipline you are going to need.\n\nIdentify your core bottleneck, and begin working ONLY on that until it is fixed. \n\nList all the things you could implement to remove that bottleneck, find the one with the mix of most impact & least effort, and work on ONLY that until it has been removed.\n\nYou will move far faster by moving 1 thing forward for 5 straight days, then moving to the next thing, instead of trying to do 2 things at once.\n\n8. Care for your customer\n\nIt’s a shame I have to say this, but most people in the internet education space do not give a single fuck about the people they work with.\n\nAnd for proof, ask people how much they pay their fulfillment team versus their marketing & sales team.\n\nYou will be hard-pressed to find someone with a number that is even close, let alone what they pay a fulfillment team at all.\n\nThe bar is exceptionally low, so leap over it and actually build systems that monitor student performance, satisfaction, completion, and success.\n\n9. Enjoy the ride\n\nI can look back and smile on every single moment of my 4 years as an entrepreneur, even though I was not smiling in the moment.\n\nWhich means you can take the same approach now, no matter how challenging something is.\n\nEvery problem you face & overcome is writing a story you will talk about for the rest of your life. Lighten up and release the grip, it’s not as serious as you’re making it. You can indeed smile through times when everything feels like it’s going to break.\n\nSo if at any time you’re cursing the world, frustrated to no end, running on fumes, or questioning if any of this
