TTPQ #2 (Tweet, Thread, AI Prompt, Quote)

Supercharge your content with a Tweet or Thread Template, AI Prompt, and Book Quote

Hi everyone! Welcome to issue 2 of TTPQ. Every Saturday I’ll be sending out a quick, value-packed newsletter like this one containing:

• Either a tweet or thread template (with examples)

• A content creation related AI prompt (to be used with ChatGPT)

• A thought provoking excerpt from a book I’m reading

These are all templates, meaning there will be certain spots where you’ll fill in ideas to make the content personal. Anywhere you see brackets {} you fill in your own idea.

I’m welcome to any and all feedback! Please reply, comment, or DM with any thoughts, criticisms, or suggestions.

Book Quote

The impediment to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.

-The Obstacle is the Way by Ryan Holiday

An all time classic if you haven’t read it yet (prepare for way more quotes in the future from this one). This quote summates the entire message of the book in one sentence.

In life, don’t back down from challenges. Those challenges might be impeding your action now, but those challenges and discomfort will only make you better, faster, stronger. Lean into them. Learn from them. Embrace the discomfort.

Don’t go around the challenges. Go through them. This is how you become 1% better.

Hope these templates were helpful and the excerpt thought-provoking! Let me know all your feedback and send me a ping if you use any of the templates and see good results.
