5 Tweet Tuesday - June 17, 2025

💎  5 Tweet Tuesday 💎 

Out of 500M daily tweets, only 5 deserve your attention.

Here’s this week’s starting lineup:

#1 💎 

I quit poker because even the few winning players looked miserable. Their life was sitting, alone, for 8 hours a day inside a casino.

Hobbies, jobs, restaurants - just look at the regulars. If don’t want to look like them, don’t do it.

Look at the people who are winning the game, if you don’t like their life, don’t play their game.

#2 💎 

This dude is tracking inflation specifically on Dry Aged Rib Eye steak. (12% annual inflation, up 62% in last 5 years)

#3 💎 

I like this simple “morning & night” test for making decisions:

  • Will this make me more excited to wake up? 

  • Will this let me sleep in peace? 

If it’s a “no” for either one, the decision is worth re-considering. 

#4 💎 

I feel this. By 3pm - my work drops off a cliff.

So I don’t waste “good hours on low energy”. Instead, I charge my battery at 3pm with:

  • A 30 minute nap

  • A piano lesson (1hr) 

  • Or go play/swim with the kids

#5 💎

#6 💎 

Let me tell you about one of my favorite quotes:

“Never write an advertisement which you wouldn't want your own family to read. The consumer isn’t a moron, she’s your wife. You wouldn't tell lies to your own wife. Don't tell them to mine.”

- David Ogilvy (the Father of Advertising)

To me, you’re family. So I wouldn’t lie to you either.

And when it comes to my banking** services, I use Mercury.

I use it for my personal account. My business accounts. Everything. In total, I have 6+ accounts with them.

That’s why I’m confident in recommending it, because I know it works and I know what it does.
