Hey bro,

This is going to be a rough one for some of you…

But for others?

It’ll change your life.

Here’s the TLDR:

To win in copywriting, you have to be dedicated 

And I don’t mean, one day it’s…

“Yeah, I’m serious about this copywriting thing, I’m gonna make it work.”

And then the next day…

“I can’t get a client, I give up”

You have to be all in.

Balls to the wall: I’m going to make this work, or I’m going to die trying.

Take me for example…

(And I’m not trying to brag I’m trying to motivate.)

It’s cold… I’m walking… I’ve got 3 bags and a dog…

But guess what?

I’m writing copy. 

And that’s why you need to be all in.

When you’re all in…

Every. Single. Second. Is spent on copy.

Whether that’s listening to a podcast (best one you can listen to) 

Or literally writing copy in your head.

YOU CAN’T AFFORD WASTED TIME.

Some of you might not like this…

And I’m sorry, you just don’t want it bad enough.

I know that’s cliché, but it’s cliché for a reason.

If you’re spending time doing things other than copy, you’re wasting that time.

Now, in some cases this isn’t true…

But in most?

You, me, and everyone in this newsletter aren’t working hard enough.

Another thing:

It’s not enough to just “put in the hours.”

You need to put in the maximum hours AND work.

And this is going to sound crazy but…

When you’re working your goal shouldn’t be money… clients… or even experience…

Your goal is to be the person that can work that hard.

And if you’re anything less, ur losing.
