Best formula to master any skill → Repetition Learn from each iteration rather than waiting for the perfect outcome. Mind: "What if it flops?" Just say, "Great! I will do it again tomorrow." No work goes to waste when practising a craft.

Setbacks? They are just pit stops on your epic adventure. They do not define who you are and your entire existence. Keep surfing through the rough waters. With time, you'll glide like a pro.

A tweet's performance does not reflect your worth as a writer or your overall ability. Sometimes, it can be disheartening. The outcomes are unpredictable. Embrace the process of continuous improvement. Keep the faith. Keep writing, even if no one sees it.

The hardest part is starting. You’ll never feel ready. Something will always feel like it’s missing. There are no shortcuts in the writing world. It doesn’t matter where you’re at now. Create a lot of bad stuff. Keep polishing. You'll eventually have your masterpiece.docx

Kill the fear of being judged, misunderstood, critiqued, and ignored. Write for yourself. Create something you would enjoy reading. Do not obsess over how your writing will be received. Your idea holds one-of-a-kind value. No one else in the world can offer what you can.

The most important question I ask myself before writing: “What is the aim of the piece?” Whether it's a tweet, thread, newsletter, or book, there's no point in writing without a clear message. Makes the writing confusing and boring. Result? The reader will lose interest.

Fancy words look impressive and decorative. But they hold no value if your readers don't understand. Familiar words are powerful. Conveys your message efficiently. Builds a connection with readers. Cuts the need to look for a dictionary or turn to Google for clarification.

Comparison breeds anxiety. Nothing is taken away from you when someone else achieves a goal. Everyone’s timelines are different. Appreciate where you’re on your journey now. Even if it’s not where you want to be. Every season serves a purpose.

Embrace your bad writing. Let your unfiltered thoughts flow onto the page. Kill the ‘perfect editing’ pressure mode. Writing is a space for genuine self-expression. Never let perfectionism paralyze you.

I used to spend hours writing a single tweet. Result? It ended up sounding robotic and fell flat. A minor tweak in the writing process added life: Turn it into a conversation. I imagine speaking directly to my past self or a close friend. Writing is now fun, not a chore.

Stacking information is procrastination in disguise. It's like being a kid in a candy store. Surrounded by endless options and unable to choose just one. Break free from the constant consumption mode. Act on the information you already know. Find the right balance.

I felt unsure about writing online without taking writing courses. Now I realise writing is like swimming or riding a bike. You can't stay on the sidelines and learn. You learn to write by writing. Sit with a notebook. Tap the keys. Write something. Action beats fear.

Note to self: Don't worry about how little you've written or how much is left to write. Focus on what you can write now.

Nobody enjoys reading big blocks of text. Strategic use of short and long sentences is the key. It provides visual breaks. Allows the reader to take a short pause. Observe what you wrote. Don't confuse and exhaust your readers. Say NO to long, run-on sentences.

Every person works at a unique pace. Some of us aren’t as productive as others. Some of us take longer to hone the craft than others. Struggling with the process doesn't mean you're a failure. Be kind to yourself. Accept that it’s all part of the package.

Writing can be mentally and emotionally taxing. Set a small goal. My current goal: Write for one hour every morning. I sit before my notebook at the same time. Even on zero-inspiration days, I push myself to sit in the chair. Good writing begins with a solid writing routine.

You can write faster when you get into a good flow state. How? Write at the same time every day. Understand what works best for you—morning or night. Figure out the environment in which you thrive. Block your time. Turn off those notifications. That’s your writing me-time.

Reading is the greatest fuel for idea generation. My writing sounds poor when I don’t consume enough. Particularly when I haven't read enough. Creating without consuming is like having a one-sided conversation. Drink in the inspiration. Do the work. Repeat the process.

Kill your inner voice that says: “Your ideas suck.” Release your imperfect work into the world. The more you create, the greater the chances of a masterpiece. Don’t fan the flames of creativity. Every creative genius was once uncertain of their ideas.

I always thought I sucked at writing. And it stopped me from writing on Twitter. I gave many excuses: • I’m not an expert • I don’t know my niche • I haven’t taken any writing courses Kill the imposter syndrome. Your words have an impact, even if you don't notice it.
