January 05, 2021 How to find the right person
Not every single relationship will work.
Do you want to know why?
You’re probably thinking that they aren’t doing things that they were doing to get with you and that’s why.
And this is true to an extent.
One of the two people got lost in the relationship.
And you think it’s just the person.
You become frustrated with trying to get it to work with different people.
In your mind, they are the problem.
But do you want to know the common denominator in every relationship?
You.
You are the problem.
And you are the reason that you end up lonely.
You constantly just think about how life can’t go on without them at first and then you jump to the next person without fixing yourself.
This is unfair for the next person.
They are getting a broken version of yourself.
I challenge you to work on yourself whether you are single or not.
If you are single just one month without trying to jump into the next relationship.
You are forced to work on yourself.
And this will create stronger self love which will make you more confident.
And if you are more confident, you’ll be vibrating at a higher frequency and will attract people of only that frequency.
Work on yourself today.

January 02, 2021 Building a New Years resolution
2020 is over.
We had a very long year with everything that happened.
A lot of negative things.
But we certainly had a lot of positivity and growth if you look at everything right.
I made a lot of accomplishments this year.
And the majority of my accomplishments came in the last six months of 2020.
Take the time to write your accomplishments down.
I’m sure you have a list twice as long as mine if you really think long and hard.
I grew the most post college.
The list started with:
Going through with my new year’s resolution of reading everyday.
Graduating college
Completed a copywriter program.
Stayed consistent with copywriting through the entire year.
Got better at copywriting and actually know what I’m doing.
Got actual clients who are giving me testimonies and network connections.
Got a job.
Stayed at a job for half of the year.
Became a better man for my woman and our relationship is at the best that’s ever been.
Started boxing.
Got my own room with a door.
Moved out of my mom’s house.
Got better at closing from my job.
Joined a public speaking group toastmasters.
Started saving money finally.
Got better at planning my day.
Survived covid.
Survived a car accident
Got my mentor Dan Lok.
Learned gratitude.
And most of all, got closer with the most high.
Look at the length of that list.
It’s a very long and detailed list of accomplishments that I have achieved this year.
This list makes me want to work harder.
I have achieved so much this year and I can only go up so I must achieve way more this following year.
Before this list I felt like I haven’t achieved enough.
But after looking at the battles that I have won this year, it makes me excited for 2021.
You probably felt the same way.
You probably felt as though you didn’t do enough last year without actually looking back at what you did.
But trust me you have.
To build your New Year's resolution, first start with a list of everything you accomplished this past year.
And you’ll see what you need to do.

December 29, 2020 The life lesson I taught my brother
I feel responsible for my brother.
It was always me and him.
When it comes to family, I don’t really play around.
Me and my brother struggled together and it only brought us closer.
We are opposites when it comes to money.
I can’t save money to save my life and my brother will make $1 last a week.
His savings looked very full.
My brother pinched every single penny he had to the point where he wasn’t enjoying life.
He acted as though he never had money.
Everytime my other brother and I would try to go out he would ask for someone to pay for his food.
That’s why I call him Mr. Krabbs.
If you don’t know, Mr. Krabbs is the crab from SpongeBob that is all about how to make money and keep it by saving everything and being cheap.
I told him not to stress how to save money but to rather focus on ways to make more money.
And everything changed from that day.
My brother bought an ipad to draw his comic books, he started spoiling his girlfriend, and started being much happier.
You may be a lot like my brother.
You may be trying to pinch your pennies instead of finding ways to make more money.
I’m not telling you to blow all your money and not save.
I’m telling you to use this money that you’re pinching so much and go out every once in a while and spend it on learning a skill.
Enjoy your life.
I know personally myself, the times when I’m having the most fun, I’m spending money.
But I still put some aside to save and to invest in copywriting.
How will you start spending your money from now on?

December 27, 2020 My sister told me she was a carpet
My sister told me she was a carpet.
She was a carpet because everyone walks all over her.
And this stuck with me.
Majority of my family leaned on my sister at some point and never were there for her to lean on.
They aren’t giving back the same energy.
Everyone attaches like leeches and sucks up all they can from her and leaves her dry.
It can be overwhelming.
She not only is there for everyone, but no one is there for her.
If this sounds like you..
You’ll end up like a carpet.
If you feel like a carpet, I’m here to tell you that you can lean on me.
You don’t hear this enough.
“I’m proud of you.”
“I believe in you.”
I’m here to tell you these things.
I’m not an enabler.
I won’t do everything for you, but I will take some of the weight off of your shoulders.
Lean on me if you need some support.

December 23, 2020 Own your traffic
I’ve never written a successful FB Ad yet.
But this is what the business was looking for because they had everything else, so I told him I could do it.
I was nervous.
FB has compliance rules that you must follow and you still want your copy to be effective.
This was a practice project.
I failed and vowed to continue learning how to write FB ads and making them compliant, but something good did come out of this failure.
I got another opportunity at another big project.
But I did want you to see the difficulty in writing FB Ads because it is traffic you don’t own.
You wouldn’t have to do this with emails.
The reason is because you own the traffic for email marketing.
You can control FB traffic.
FB allows you to have control over the ads, but with emails you can write whatever you want and can control the timing and sell to them as many times and as many ways as you want.
It’s your list.
And there are plenty of different softwares that allows you to build your contact list like mailchimp or clickfunnels.
Then you can hire a copywriter.
They will make sure you convert the emails that you send out.
You may end up spending a couple hundred dollars with them and converting about a couple thousand dollars back.
Get an email list.
Without an email list, you really don’t have a business.
Comment “ready” if you are about to start collecting emails for your business.

December 21, 2020 Be a product of your environment
“Don’t be a product of your environment.”
I disagree with this statement.
In fact, I believe you should be a product of your environment
And if it's a bad environment..
Just change it.
At first, I wasn’t a product of my environment and actually tried to stay away from my environment.
I was swimming against the current.
To most, I was weird but I honestly didn’t care at first.
Eventually, I became an outcast.
I was the kid who plate Yu-Gi-Oh cards while everyone else was playing basketball or smoking before school.
Every group was my group.
But fitting in everywhere, was fitting in nowhere.
However, I did notice something.
Even the kids who got into trouble played sports.
Eventually I played sports too.
No I wasn’t the next Kobe Bryant, but I still played so that I won’t be left out.
But I was determined to get better.
The first thing I did was start hanging out with people who were better at basketball and went on to play high level basketball and they made me better.
This is good peer pressure.
Peer pressure can go either way, this is why your environment is so important.
Playing with people who didn’t take it seriously, made me worse.
I had to change my environment.
Sometimes we think that we are obligated to stick around with someone because of our history together as opposed to doing what is best for us.
You don’t have to.
Stop letting history hinder you from growth.
Leave that environment and become the best version of yourself.

December 19, 2020 Ice-T sold me car insurance
Ice-T was selling car insurance.
A car commercial came on while I was getting my haircut and had Ice-T on there selling it.
I was confused.
What did he have to do with car insurance?
It was so funny to me.
The car shield commercial came on and I immediately recognized him and his ponytail.
How could Ice-T make this more credible?
Suddenly, it came to me that Ice-T was on there because the ideal audience knew who he was and that they trusted him.
A celebrity they know will catch their attention.
And it made me come to the conclusion that you don’t have to have an expert to make your product or service more credible, but just someone who the audience will trust.
It could still be relevant.
Ice-T may be an author and actor that makes millions, but he still probably has car insurance.
If he said it’s okay then it must be good.
The source you have must be credible, but doesn’t have to be an expert.
So in order to build credibility for your product or service use a celebrity or spokesperson that is relevant and your ideal client trusts.

December 16, 2020 If you desires something enough you will get it
Jay loved basketball.
One thing about Jay was that he would find a gym somewhere somehow to hoop.
“No physical, No tryouts!”
This is a rule that coaches are supposed to follow for legal reasons when it comes to basketball tryouts.
Jay didn’t have a physical.
I don’t know if you are familiar with DSU, but one thing about them was that they do everything at the last minute.
There was no longer time for Jay to get a physical the day before tryouts.
There was no organization.
And this frustrated Jay because he was desperate to show how good he was at basketball.
This was a strict rule.
But Jay didn’t let this stop him.
Jay found a way to sneak into the gym during tryouts to get his fair shot at making the team.
He remembered who didn’t say “here.”
And he told the coach that he didn’t hear his name and would say the name of the missing person.
Jay was able to try out.
Unfortunately Jay didn’t make the team, but he was able to show off his skills and see what he needed to work on the following year.
Nothing would stop him from getting his shot.
Jay didn’t care about how he was going to try out, he just wanted to try out so he made it happen.
And this is what you focus on.
You focus on how you can do something rather than why you wanted to do it in the first place.
When you know the why, you will find a way.
If you continue to focus on this idea that there is perfect timing to do something.
You will be in the grave before you do it thinking this way.
You will become a creative thinker.
Even if you have to sacrifice something, you’ll do it to achieve what you really desire.
There won’t be any excuses.
You’ll just do it.
And physiologically, your brain will be making more connections and growing.
It’s called neuroplasticity.
And this is why I recommend you to just start something that you really want to do.
Think of something you really desire.
Then think about why you want to do it.
And go do it right now.

December 12, 2020 What happens when you slice up the pie
Stop looking at the whole pie.
I mean for you to not worry about everything that you need to do all at once.
My goal was to read one book per week.
This is what I saw successful entrepreneurs were doing, so I decided that I would follow in line.
I wanted to be just like them.
But unfortunately, there wasn’t enough strength in me to immediately jump to reading one book a week.
However I craved this lifestyle.
They were riding in yachts and travelling the world and I knew that I wanted this part, so I had to endure the reading as well.
So I tried reading so hard.
I couldn’t read a whole book but I could read a bunch of small social media posts and end up there for hours.
Then it hit me.
Why try to read the book as a whole instead of reading little by little?
I thought successful entrepreneurs just started putting in crazy amounts of work without really seeing what was happening behind the scenes.
One must become a student.
I watched countless videos and listened to hundreds of podcasts, but I was missing the reading portion.
First I started with a daily chapter.
Reading wasn’t my favorite hobby, but after following this model I began to fall in love with it to the point where I read one book five times before going on to the next.
I wanted to absorb everything.
My brother hated reading more than me and he started with reading a single page per day.
There’s no excuse why you can’t do that.
It only takes about 1-2 minutes to read a page, maybe even shorter than that depending on your reading speed.
Don’t get overwhelmed with a full pie.
Slice the pie up.
You won’t stress yourself out worrying about the bigger picture because you will worry about the small pieces.
It’s about mastery.
You master one small task to the best of your abilities and then you move onto the next.
This is how you build success.
Success doesn’t just happen overnight, but it happens as a collection of small successes.
Start your journey today with small baby steps.
Comment what small baby steps you will start to take towards your success.

December 11, 2020 My first public speech
I joined Toastmasters.
And it was the best decision I have made besides being with my future wife because I’m marketing my personal brand while learning to public speak.
The first speech in Toastmasters is an icebreaker.
Toastmaster groups are a tight knit group and you can take advantage of this by introducing yourself to them in your first speech and networking.
Remember that your network is your net worth.
This wasn’t an in person speech, but rather a speech over a zoom call due to COVID restrictions.
I was nervous because the only time I presented in front of people was in school.
This may sound weird, but to overcome this just imagine the crowd taking a number 2.
No seriously.
Imagining everyone naked used to make me uncomfortable because I’m being stared at by naked people, but them taking a dump is just hilarious and they would be embarrassed.
I made it through my speech imagining this.
The listeners started with good praise about my enthusiasm and determination to step up and do a speech within one week of joining the group.
This has never happened.
With this being the case, they gave me more praise by telling me that I was going to be very successful.
I was going to have to get critiqued at some point.
Why not get it over with now?
I knew most of the problems I had with public speaking before the evaluator even started talking, but it sucks to hear it from someone else.
That speech was horrible.
Expectedly, the evaluator told me that I talk too fast and I always use filler words such as “uhh.”
I needed to learn to breathe.
This speech didn’t turn out as good as I thought it would be, but I did realize that speaking and writing copy are connected because you write how you speak.
Why?
Customers will connect with the copy more if it is more conversational instead of them reading an article.
Think about it.
You are persuading them to take action.
If you wouldn’t talk to them as if you were a narrator reading an article, then why would you write your copy as if it was an article?
You probably think that public speech isn’t conversational.
In a way it is.
Besides teaching you not to waste words, public speech also teaches you to talk to a mass group of people to take action by resonating with their personal emotions.
And this is why I recommend that you learn to speak in public.
