We are monkeys that copy what we see. You can fight it, or use that to your advantage by surrounding yourself with people who you want to become more like.
If you wanna level up - the fastest hack is to hangout with people who are ALREADY at that level.
The beauty of twitter is that you can hang with anyone.
The problem is ppl follow the wrong accounts. It's noisy as f*ck.
Here's 27 people you should follow (and why)👇

A few years back my team built an app called Blab. It was like clubhouse before clubhouse.
Christie Smythe covered white-collar crime for Bloomberg News and lived "the perfect little Brooklyn life" with her husband. Then she threw it all away for one of her sources: infamous pharma bro Martin Shkreli. https://t.co/Xk0zXmYkgF

When he first joined the app I had no idea who he was. I just saw that his live streams instantly had 3-4K viewers. More than anyone on our tiny platform.
I googled him and it came up: “Martin Shkreli, most hated man in America”
I assumed he was bad news
And he was... but also he wasn’t.
He was a douchebag, but he was in on the joke. He was a dick, but he was also very entertaining.
In the mornings he would live stream himself analyzing stocks or walking through drug discovery pathways.
In the afternoon he’d let people call in and debate him live on air. A CNN reporter tried to get him to go on TV, he refused, and said debate me here on Blab, no edits, no tv time limits.
At night he’d host late night convos - and eventually fall asleep on cam
The guy was a pain in the ass but man he drove traffic.
We had big celebs like Tony Robbins, the Jonas brothers etc... he outperformed them all.
At one point he was bringing in 100k users per month directly to his channel. And Bc he was so entertaining, they stuck.
