Most people suck at being interesting via DMs.

The thing is - it takes a lot of time and effort to do it right.

Here are 9 frameworks to stand out from the crowd:

Pre-game:

Start on the timeline:

1. Turn on notifications for your favorite tweeters.

2. Reply with something insightful in under 10 minutes.

You will enter their radar.

Then, follow up on a specific tweet or idea via DM.


Don't make "connections", make friends:

Remember: Twitter is different.

You don't have an audience-consumer relationship like LinkedIn or TikTok.

On Twitter, it's a friend-friend relationship.

Write a catchy first line:

By the design of Twitter DMs, you don't have much real estate.

In "message requests", you only see the name of the person + the first few words.

Crazy part: I get 30 of these DMs per day.

Make sure the first line is eye-catching.

Crucial.

Be specific as f*ck:

General compliments and feedback are useless.

To stand out, ask this question to yourself:

What do you *actually* like about them or their work?

High specificity means you're genuine.

Being genuine will get you more friends.

Today, I turn 19 years old.

My best quality?

→ I learn the best from the best.

🧵 These 19 people have taught me 19 different things.

Time for a thread👇👇👇


Quick note:

I realize that all the superstars mentioned in this thread are not one-dimensional. No one is.

This is a compilation of how I am implementing these qualities and insights from their lives, to my life.

And I hope I help you do so too!

1/ Be courageous like @brandonthezhang

Brandon himself is quite young but he never let age keep him back.

One opportunity, to the next → Starting with @visualizevalue to building his personal brand and launching his podcast 🚀

Age is indeed just a number for him.

2/ Be generous like @jamierusso

Jamie is definitely one of the kindest souls I have encountered on Twitter.

He is a prime example of how being nice and always willing to help out (regardless of size of account), helps in the long run.

Congratulations on your book 💙

3/ Steal like @AlexLlullTW

Twitter is a game.

And I haven't seen anyone talk about it more openly than Alex.

Tips, tricks, and also the formats — he shares it all. I love it when he's open about "stealing" formats from other people. That's how everyone in the community grows.

If you use it right, your Twitter account is worth more than your degree.

But 98.8% suck at it.

Here are 9 unique ways to turn Twitter into a crazy valuable asset:

Highly Curate Your Following

99% of users follow real-time news on Twitter.

That's okay. But you won't make Twitter an asset then.

To make it an asset, build a high-signal information diet.

You'll see it as a whole new opportunity.

Let me show you...

Use Twitter Lists

I find way too much news, drama and irrelevant ideas on the Twitter timeline.

I use Twitter lists to cut the noise and amplify the signal.

Bonus: Lists aren't affected by the algorithm.

Here's a video to get started on Lists:


Use Advanced Search

Scrape the internet to find what you want:

"(from:aaditsh) min_faves:1000 marketing"

Tweets with "marketing" from @aaditsh with more than 1000 likes.

Another favorite:

"(from:aaditsh) until:2021-09-01 since:2021-05-01"

Between May and September.

Mute Trolls

Trust me. They're not worth your time.

Click on a profile that annoys you.

Click "more" → "mute profile".

You won't "block" them but their content will become hidden on your timeline.

It's so peaceful.

Elon Musk is a big believer in First Principles Thinking.

Not just Musk — Jeff Bezos, Peter Thiel and Feynman too.

Here's what it is, how to use it, and become better at it:

What it is:

Elon Musk (@elonmusk) on First Principles Thinking:

It means "boiling things down to the most fundamental truths and then reasoning up from there."

A first principle is a basic truth that cannot be broken down any further.

God — this reminds me of high school chemistry when we first learnt about Atoms.

But that's what they're like! The basic foundations.

Here are 2 techniques to use First Principles Thinking:

1. The Five Whys

This is simple. Keep asking why.

Already asked why? Ask again.

Continuously ask why things are the way they are.

It'll help you discover the root causes of problems (hence helping you solve them).

You know what — Children are great at this...

Children question everything.

They keep asking why (almost to the point that it gets annoying).

Their curiosity enables them to think from first principles.

As we get older, we lose this child-like curiosity to keep asking why.

Lie: School sets you up for the real world.

If you want to win at life, you need to learn to figure it out.

How to figure anything out:

Accept that you don't know it all:

First, normalize not knowing everything. It's okay.

The ones that know a lot continue to ask questions.

Speak less. Ask more.

Curiosity wins:

Be ready to be a student again. Know that it never stops — lifelong learning.

The universe appreciates genuine curiosity.

Friends, the internet & communities will give you what you want if show genuine interest.

Be positive-sum — want others to win:

The more you give, the more you get.

If people around you are winning, you will win (at some point).

Surround yourself with winners and help them win big.

Use Youtube:

The greatest search engine of all time

You can literally learn anything for free if you:

• Are curious enough
• Show up every day

My dad led an organization of over 300,000 employees.

When I took on my biggest marketing & events team to date (35 employees) I asked him how the *heck* he did it. Here's what he said and what helped me every day. 🧵

Remember you're leading all the employees under you, but you're not *managing* them all. You're managing your direct reports, which should be 5-7 individuals max. Focus on them.

When you interact with the employees you don't manage directly, get to know them as people first, that'll be the most valuable information in leading them. Remembering everything you learn about them is hard, but doing so will make you a superhero.

If you're not going to empower the managers under you, why do you have them? If you see room for improvement, let the manager know and let them make the change on their teams and come to you with questions/concerns. This will save you SO much time.

If you're the smartest person in any room - you're doing it wrong. As a leader, your job is bringing together the best people to get the job done - your skillset is identifying those people, not being one of them.

This is a pretty valiant attempt to defend the "Feminist Glaciology" article, which says conventional wisdom is wrong, and this is a solid piece of scholarship. I'll beg to differ, because I think Jeffery, here, is confusing scholarship with "saying things that seem right".


The article is, at heart, deeply weird, even essentialist. Here, for example, is the claim that proposing climate engineering is a "man" thing. Also a "man" thing: attempting to get distance from a topic, approaching it in a disinterested fashion.


Also a "man" thing—physical courage. (I guess, not quite: physical courage "co-constitutes" masculinist glaciology along with nationalism and colonialism.)


There's criticism of a New York Times article that talks about glaciology adventures, which makes a similar point.


At the heart of this chunk is the claim that glaciology excludes women because of a narrative of scientific objectivity and physical adventure. This is a strong claim! It's not enough to say, hey, sure, sounds good. Is it true?

Your Most PRECIOUS Currencies:

-Energy

-Time

-Attention

-Trust

-Love

-Loyalty

-Respect

Only give these currencies to high value people. Never spend these currencies on low value shitheads eg: trolls, weasels, snakes, naysayers etc.

'Wait, I thought money was the most important currency?'

Nah.

Once you adopt abundance mentality, you realize their is no shortage of money.

Making the dollars your most important currency will have you leading an empty life.

Time to flip your perspective.

👇

▪Energy

When you strip yourself to the core, you are an emotional creature.

Emotions are your internal worlds energy.

Harnessing that energy is crucial for leveraging yourself to obtain whatever you want.

You have a finite amount everyday, so spend it wisely.

▪Time

A second that is lost will never be returned.

You start valuing the hell out of this currency the more you mature.

As the years start adding up, you realize time is precious.

You must always have a scarcity mindset towards time.

Once you do so, you will not be lazy.

▪Attention

You can be here, but not present.

Attention is completely mental.

Giving someone your attention means you are clearing up mental bandwidth to make room for them.

Only give your attention to people who help you grow.

For the negative ones?

Ignore their existence

BRAHMA VAIVARTA PURAN: IMPORTANCE AND CHARACTERISTICS.

This Puran introduces us to way of Vedas. On the request of Narad Muni Bhagwan Saavarni had preached this Puran. It is a summary of Dharma, Arth, Moksha etc.


Listening to this Puran one gets automatically attached to Vishnu and Shiva and realize that there is no difference between them. Vyasji divided this book into four parts. It has eighteen thousand shlokas. This whole book is in the form of dialogue between Suutji and Maharishi's.

The first part Brahmkhand, consists of Shrishti description. Here Shri is known as Para Brahma and description of Gokul is also mentioned, It also narrates the argument between Brahma and Narad in which both were defeated, and then Narad went to Shiva to attain more gyan.

Shivji advised him to go to Bhagwan Saavarni for this. Narad goes to Saavarni ashram to seek Knowledge and is totally amazed by the sorroundings.

Next is Prakriti khand which consists of dialogue between Narad and Saavarni where they discuss the

Importance of Shri Krishna through various stories. Then there is the discussion of Prakriti and its various hues. Listening to this gets you wealth.
Next is Ganesh Khand which describes the Punyak vrat done by Parvati ji. After this it narrates the birth of Kartikeya and Ganesh.
