Be proud of rejection.

Rejection means you actually tried.

Most people don't get that far.

Procrastination is the most expensive vice

The job of a ghostwriter:

Put the client's message in the client's words.

But better than they could.

Writing well makes you:

- richer
- smarter
- more efficient
- more persuasive
- more employable

Invest in your writing.

Great writers are great observers

You can't write well until you learn to see things for how they are.

How I write:

1. Stare out the window for 50 minutes
2. Write like a madman for 10 minutes
3. Repeat

Tens of thousands of ancestors
One sperm out of millions
One short life

And you're just scrolling social media?

The writer's urge to change the world without even leaving your house

The best way to learn writing is

*drumroll*

Write.

Stop looking for shortcuts.

Learn:

- Focus
- Writing
- Persuasion
- Psychology
- Sales

And you will be unstoppable

Noone with the life you want is boasting about it on social media.

Writing well is about thinking well.

The words are secondary.

It's better to write for 20 minutes every day than 8 hours every few months.

Next time you feel discouraged remember Stephen King was rejected 30 times before he sold a book

Boring people read tweets

Brilliant people read books

Sylvester Stallone wrote the script for Rocky while he was homeless and couldn't afford to eat.

But you still think you've got "too much else going on" to write?

If you had an unlimited supply of one thing, what would it be?

Ernest Hemingway once said:

"There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and bleed."
