    How to get strangers to give you change (if needed)

    I was homeless when I was younger. Staying in shelters isn't fun. Not eating for days isn't fun. Sleeping in a compact car wasn't fun. It's not fun at all. To go further, watching your mother struggle to keep electricity on in the winter, keep food in the house and make sure us kids succeed and...

    Welcome to the new form of copywriting. So usual that everyone will click. So interesting that people using touch screen devices will sit here to try to click for minutes. Good luck in your endeavors.

    Why Colleges Don't Teach Copywriting...

    RANT 
    It's because you don't subscribe to the mentality of normal people. Not that is a bad thing. Normal people want their kids to go to outstanding colleges to get into some prestigious career and live a better life then they personally had. Entrepreneurs want their kids to be successful enough to...

    Why Colleges Don't Teach Copywriting...

    RANT 
    People don't want to listen to you until you do one of two things. Talk about things they like/do/WANT or have substantial evidence for your cause. @IceCreamKid turned me on to Dale Carnegie's book "How to Win Friends and Influence People." The book may be old but the stuff in it really changed...

    Hustle VS. Job: Discuss!

    SIDE HUSTLE 
    I'm going to go the opposite way on this one. Job. Saying job or hustle might be an easy way to cop out of actually doing work. "I'm just going to say I'm hustling/bootstrapping to start my business" Then never move forward. Don't get me wrong, it can happen the other way too. Instead take...
