🟢: It's not how we make mistakes, but how we correct them that defines us.

💚 Sometimes we lose our way.

✓ We all make mistakes.
✓ We focus on the wrong things.
✓ We pursue goals at all costs.
✓ We teeter on ethical and moral cliffs.
✓ We get too far down a slippery slope.
✓ We steal.
✓ We cheat.
✓ We lie.
✓ We deceive others.
✓ We deceive ourselves.
✓ We don’t open ourselves up to our friends.

You can be a good person and still exercise poor judgment.

💚 Just because you failed doesn’t mean you can’t succeed.

✓ We all fail.
✓ Mentally resilient people realize that its not failure that defines your identity but how you respond.

🟢: Mistakes are bad, no doubt, but not learning from them is worse.

✓ The key to learning from mistakes is to admit them without excuses or defensiveness, rub your nose in them a little, and make the changes you need to make to grow going forward.

✓ If you can’t admit your mistakes, you won’t grow.

#copywriting

I was scared of writing high school final exams because of bad reviews from seniors.

"It's HARD!".
"Read everything from SS1 to 3".

It got so bad that I was shivering in the exam hall.

But after scaling through

I realized that to overcome your fear you just need to face it.

Become a content sonar.

Always be on the lookout for ideas.

I saved a bee and turned it into a story.

1,000 + impressions on X and a bit of storytelling practice.

I could have easily remained the silent hero.

But not as a Creator:

Bee saved, lesson learned, story told.

Going against societal rule in 20's is crazy.

My mates are scared to do it.

• They call me "outlaw"

• They stick to their 9-5 as a safety net

• They fear to break their parents happiness which is the opposite.

Most lack clarity.

Only if they could take a little jump.

They don't know right?

You sleep late.
You're up earlier.

Work 5-9 to eventually quit your 9-5.

Mates arguing pointlessly.
You're drafting content.

They tell you the latest movies.
You're stacking the best books.

We're the crazy ones now.
But they'll get it soon.

Do you know men also get raped?

She pushed me to bed & ripped my shirt off

I tried running but the door was locked

The key was lying between her chest

Take it or leave it she said

These what I mean

The choice to do anything lies in your hands.

The choice to act fast and stand your ground also lies in your hand.

Avoid the wrong place at the right time.

And Most importantly

As a creator trying to build a brand on social media presence

what people will say should not border you.

When get on call with your prospect

Don't be quick to pitch your service.

Lead with value:

• Ask questions.
• Allow them to talk
• Once they are done talking, ask them if they have more
. Explain what you meant when you asked that question
. Then give them a solution.
