5 Tweet Tuesday - December 24, 2025

šŸ’Ž  5 Tweet Tuesday šŸ’Ž 

Only 1 sleep left till Christmas! Here’s one more Five Tweet Tuesday before the end of year.

Leave me some milk and cookies by forwarding this to a friend and telling them to subscribe to your favorite newsletter too :)

This sounds like nothing, but it’s everything.

Having fun ⇒ doing it more
Doing it more ⇒ getting better
Getting better ⇒ winning

#2 šŸ’Ž 

Some wholesome church husband humor for the holidays. You’re welcome.

#3 šŸ’Ž 

Highly highly recommend this. For anyone. Especially myself. Because I sure as hell don’t do this. But I’m going to start now. After reading this tweet.

#4 šŸ’Ž 

This is how I felt at every house party in San Francisco.

I don’t like long lists, so here’s ONE thing I really liked reading this year (that 99% of you probably didn’t see)

Flounder Mode - a profile about Kevin Kelly. 

Naval calls Kevin ā€œmodern Socratesā€. Marc Andreessen says ā€œeverything KK writes is worth readingā€.

His resume:

  • Created Wired magazine

  • Wrote the famous blog post 1,000 True Fans - inspired Tim Ferriss & others to go for it

  • Is building a 10,000 year clock in a mountain (a monument to long term thinking) funded by Jeff Bezos

  • Steven Spielberg asked him to be an advisor for ā€˜futurism’ in Minority Report

  • Rode his bike across America 

  • Has written a dozen books

  • Hosts 100km ā€œgroup walksā€ in random countries 

Great quotes from the article: 

ā€œGreatness is overrated. Greatness is an extreme. And extremes have extreme downsidesā€

ā€œI don’t pursue a destination. I pursue a directionā€

ā€œMoney is one of the least interesting reasons to be interested in somethingā€ 

ā€œSomeone tried to force me to write a professional goal. The best I could come up with is ā€œhave a good day, most daysā€

What a guy. 

Long post, but it’s good. Give it a read.

Let me tell you a little story.

A few years ago, I got deep into crypto. (Like waaay too deep).

So I said, ā€œScrew it. I’m starting a newsletter.ā€

I saw my buddies build The Hustle and Morning Brew and sell for millions… so i thought, ā€œhow hard could it beā€?

I launched Milk Road - a daily crypto newsletter. And it blew up.

Partly because the content was good.

Partly because grown adults were obsessing over monkey JPEGs.

Mostly because we sent it with beehiiv.

Fast forward 14 months… Milk Road gets acquired. 7-figures.

And who do I thank? Not my Mom (sorry Mom).

I thank beehiiv. It’s the only platform I’d recommend if you want to grow, run, and monetize a newsletter - without duct-taping a bunch of apps together.

So if you’ve got something to say…

Go to beehiiv.com/mfm and use code MFM30 for 30% off your first 3 months.

What’d you think of today’s edition? Hit ā€˜reply’ to this email and lemme hear it!
