Chris rocks one of my favorite comedians
But yesterday I got to say they're doing this new thing
With a thing called a yonder case where you have to put your phone in this case and they lock your phone in this thing
And at first I was like the nerd
Who's gonna take my phone from me?
But then when I was watching the show no one was holding their phone in the air like all
Ruining the show I actually appreciate it, but funniest part about the younger cases. There's a part where you can go outside the
theater and
sit in this like caged off area like the smoking section and
People are just standing there scrolling through they're falling like drug addicts
I'm just like saying you can't not use your phone for just five seconds. You're in a Chris Rock so go enjoy this show
Dude I'm gonna tell you about one of the first self-help books that I read
How are you looking at the other day, and it's nowhere to be seen oh my god
One of the first books I read
For self-development was this book called comedy writing secrets
This book a lot of people see and they'll think why do I need to write comedy?
if I'm running a business I
gotta say this might be one of the best books on writing that I've ever read and the reason why is because
In comedy you're getting on stage, and you're trying to make people laugh and these people they want to laugh
But they also are expecting to laughs. It's hard to make someone pay attention
When they're expecting to do something and this book kind of just breaks down different
formulas and templates that you can learn how to use to make someone laugh
Anyway the reason why this is the first book?
I ever read is as you know
One of my first businesses was a celebrity gossip blog and all I used to do on this blog was make fun of celebrities that
Was 10 years ago, no that was 11 years ago
Do you know we're out of water, what kind of world is this
There's no plot. We're out. We're out of water
Mark what we do what is does this work? Ah
Regular water this is the last one do you want it all right? I gotta go fuck it. Yeah. I can't focus right now
I've been working on presentations all day
Usually right around now got to go out for a coffee take a walk clear the head Cheers
Sometime in the last year. I kind of got bored of the content. I was creating
How many times I get am I gonna tell people
to
promote their work how many times when you tell people to make sales pages how many times were you to tell people just
Focus on attracting clients
During for six years
You can bored of it
Tarek what's a good conversion rate?
You have seven visitors
Really zero is a good conversion rate at seven visitors
Get more traffic
How many times am I going to say the same things over and over and over again?
How many times are people that asked the same questions now look?
I know people are in different statuses of business
I know that people all start where they are
But when I see the same people asking the same questions for five years all I want to say to them is
Maybe it's time to give up
Maybe you're supposed to have a job
I know that's kind of harsh, and maybe it's not something that people want to hear
But if you've been working on the same problem in your business
for two three four five years or more
It's time to find a new a new plant new business sound working
That doesn't mean you're gonna be stuck there forever you have to be honest with yourself
Maybe it's time to change what you're doing
Well, maybe you're just happy staying where you are if that's the case cool
