- “Wear red on Wednesdays.”
“Wear red on Wednesdays.”
I was in the car the other day.
Just got out of the car wash. Radio still on.
Then this guy comes on.
Not a DJ.
Not some chill podcast host.
Nope. This dude called himself “Master Hanz.”
A feng shui expert. Horoscope guy.
I was ready for fluff.
But then he said:
“Year of the Horse? Wear red on Wednesday.
Avoid big decisions on Fridays.
Display citrus in your house for good luck.”
It was wild.
Not because I believed in any of it...
But because of how he said it.
No hesitation. No softeners.
Just do this. Then do that. That’s how you win.
That’s what stuck.
And I realized:
Most people aren’t persuasive because they sound like they’re still trying to convince themselves.
Meanwhile, this “Master” had me considering citrus.
Not because he’s right.
But because he was clear.
So here’s your reminder:
Don’t ramble.
Don’t suggest.
Don’t add 12 disclaimers to every piece of advice.
When you write, say the thing.
Own it.
That’s what people remember.
To your growth

(Who may or may not be wearing red on Wednesday now…)
P.S
Just something I’ve been thinking about…
Most people think more content = more growth.
But trust is what really moves the needle.
I wrote something about that [this explains it better].
