5 Tweet Tuesday - June 2, 2026

💎  5 Tweet Tuesday 💎 

My favorite 5 tweets of the week. Let’s dive in:

#1 💎 

I like the idea of focusing on “an inch of movement”.

Whatever you want to make happen just ask: what’s an “inch of movement” I can do right now?

#2 💎 

This is so true. 

I recently went thru an M&A process for one of my companies. We met with Private Equity buyers - they talked about our business, giving us tons of compliments on our hard work, our revenue, profitability etc.

Building the company == 7 years of grinding, sweating, creating a new product, marketing it, selling it, scaling operations, dealing with all kinds of problems. 

Meanwhile, the PE guy is sitting there with a $3.7B fund, collecting $74M per year in management fees, and their job is to… *checks notes*… sell money? 

By the way - no knock on them. It’s brilliant! The reaction isn’t “how dare they do that!” it’s “wait, why am I not doing that??”

#3 💎 

Hahahahah

#4 💎 

My trainer told me this: “the two most important words in the world are I am - because whatever you say after those two words will determine your future”.

#5 💎 

😂

#6 💎 Brought To You By Mercury

Confession: I just broke up with my old bank. 

And honestly, I stayed with it way too long.

Not because it was good. Just because switching felt annoying.

Meanwhile, I’m over here optimizing everything else in my life.

So when Mercury (which I already use for work) launched personal accounts, I finally made the move. Now:

  • I’ve got sub-accounts for different goals

  • Auto-transfers funding stuff in the background

  • Instant wires when I need them

  • No random in-person visits

If you’re still tolerating your bank instead of liking it… might be time to join the club.
