  1. Your followers don’t choose you. You choose them.
  2. Only 2% of my articles do well. They all have one thing in common: they focus on my audience’s pain and how to solve it.
  3. The right advice at the wrong stage of growth is bad advice.
  4. The reason haters hate you is the same reason your true fans love you. Write anyway.
  5. Chasing algorithms is stupid. Keep an eye on your audience instead.
  6. Stubbornness is a superpower in a world full of free advice.
  7. Study human psychology — it gives you the highest return.
  8. Virality is temporary. Value is permanent.
  9. Don’t write something that 1,000 people like. Write something that 1 person loves, then scale from there.
  10. My readers change every 3 months. Realizing that stopped me from making stupid trading comments and helped me focus on adding value.
  11. The platform owes you nothing. Secure your future by building an email list now.
  12. Pain is the first sign of transformation, but pain alone isn’t enough. You need reflection.
  13. Your content is your asset. You have permission to repeat it.
  14. Start writing online. It’s the moment you rewrite the whole story of your life.
