Quantity and persistence will get you the outcomes you need.
From James Altucher
I'm scammed almost every day. Or, if not scammed, at the very least someone tries to scam me. Usually more than once a day.
The best, very best scammers will always ask for your advice. This is their favorite technique. It makes them vulnerable. It flatters your ego.
It's hard to know which stars in the sky will turn into black holes. And which ones will open up worm holes into entire new universes.
When I was 7 years old, I plagiarized, word for word, stories from science fiction magazines so my teachers would think I was smart.
When I was 22 years old, I thought girls would like me if I wrote a novel. I spent so much time writing that I was thrown out of graduate school.
Read every sentence you write out loud. If it sounds boring, kill it.
Life is cold. People stay warm through the intimacy of a story.
A lot of times, people send me emails, and then I forget about them, or I never respond to them, or I respond to them weeks later.
Here's what a phone is: It's a computer that has a little app on it that allows me to dial numbers and then talk to someone.
