Things I enjoy more than scrolling:

• Long walks with a mind-expanding podcast
• Reading a f*king great book
• Sitting in a café for hours, writing, lost in time
• Movies so good I forget my phone exists
• Planning trips that feel surreal – with no return ticket
• Booking an Airbnb where nobody goes & going monk mode for weeks
• Surfing by the sea, snowboarding in the mountains, lifting in the city
• Creating things that didn’t exist before
• Cooking and eating with good company
• Journaling ideas & mapping business moves
• Exploring with no agenda
• Conversations that make time disappear
• Driving with music that hits

Real life > the feed.

The best I know have all lived fascinating lives.

18/11/2024

I used to dodge calls, meetings and conversations like the plague.

Shy, introverted, convinced my voice wasn’t worth hearing.

I let countless opportunities slip by because of it.

But recently, things changed.

Over the past few years, I forced myself to show up—one call at a time—pushing past the discomfort.

Whether it was a lead, a girl at the café, or someone interesting at the gym, I promised myself I’d always take the first step.

It was uncomfortable. It felt harsh.

Like I was constantly being watched and judged.

But then, I noticed something unexpected:

People actually listened.

I had meaningful conversations.

Nobody laughed at what I had to say.

And when things went wrong?
I learned. I grew.

“Maybe,” I thought, “I’m not ‘less’ than anyone else, like my mind tried to convince me.”

Slowly but surely, my confidence grew...

This morning, I wrapped up a call that went far beyond business.
We talked passions, dreams, goals, exciting opportunities.
And I genuinely enjoyed it.

Looking back at the scared, awkward guy who would postpone meetings, hide behind emails, and run from real conversations, I’m amazed at how much I’ve changed.

Note to self:

Don’t shy away from real people. Real stories. Real conversations.

Online or offline, there's great power in showing up, especially when it’s uncomfortable.

Vulnerability is a superpower.

"Will this line keep the reader going...Or make them stop?"

This is a timeless lesson from advertising & legend Joe Sugarman.

Use it. No matter what you're writing.

Would I keep reading your next line?

If the answer is 'yes,' you're likely on the right track.

Blue pill:

My ego can’t handle failure, so I’ll keep avoiding the hard stuff, and feel miserable for the rest of my days.

Red pill:

F*k it, let’s find out. Worst case I go back to where I started.

+0.1% copywriting tip:

Avoid emphatic language like the plague.

“Super important,” “absolutely incredible,” “unmissable,” “amazing”, etc...

When you overhype, you lose trust.

Just say what matters.

Clear, direct language builds credibility.

And credibility sells.

The only real question: can you write like you mean it?

You can’t say: “I’m gonna get 3 fish today."

But you can say: “I’m gonna fish until I get 3 fish.”

I don’t need you to tell me what to do.

I need you to tell me how you solved it and how I can too.

27/10/2024

Most will ignore you.
Some won’t get you.
A bunch might even hate you.

Only a scrappy few will actually care about whatever you've got to say.

Write for them.

When I started on Social Media, I was all about replying to anyone and following everyone—just chasing that attention.

I felt stressed and uninspired. Then I’ve grown wiser:

I’ve unfollowed most copycat accounts and muted a bunch more.

I've made it a rule to only engage with the few folks I genuinely vibe with.

The kind of people I’d connect with in real life.

These days, engagement feels easier and, most importantly, way more enjoyable.

You don’t want to be rich.

You want to be so free that every ‘what if’ turns into ‘why not?'

18/10/2024

When I sit down to write, the first thing I do is picture a friend.

Depending on the target, could be an old buddy in finance, that startup guy I met in Vietnam, my sister, or even me from 5 years ago.

I’ll jot their name at the top of the doc and start writing.

Why?

Because I’m never writing for some generic, formal audience.

When the person I’m speaking to is clear in my mind, the tone shifts instantly.

It becomes more natural, like I’m just having a conversation.

Zero magic tricks.

Pro tip:

Pin a picture next to their name if you can.

First, they ignore you.

Then they wonder, “wtf is he even doing?”

Then they think you’re hilarious with your 3 followers.

Then they become pro lurkers.

Then they start questioning how the hell you can afford to travel full-time all year.

Then they'll think you’re an as***le (for no reason at all).

Finally, they timidly like one of your posts.

Defeated, they slide into your DMs: “Hey pal, remember when we were kids?”

Did I miss anything?

You don’t build a personal brand to become popular.

You build it because you understand that people don’t buy:

• products
• services
• ideas

They buy the person behind them.

Popularity is a shallow metric.

Focus on what truly matters: building trust.

One major reason I desire a significant amount of money is to afford total isolation, stock up on real food supplies for my family, and spend the rest of my days reading and writing.
