Read on Twitter
A thread on my experience using Twitter:
As toxic & dangerous as social media can be, I wholeheartedly believe that getting involved on Twitter is one of the best decisions Iâve made thus far both professionally & personally.
Why? Friendships. Mentors. Brand development. Free flowing idea share from very bright folks.

Like anything else in life, Twitter is whatever you make of it.
Personally, itâs allowed me to cultivate a massive network within my industry and abroad. Industry vets, PMs, entrepreneurs, authors, trailblazers. Ppl I likely wouldâve never gotten the chance to meet otherwise.

Once you realize the importance of relationships and brand equity in our business, the more of an asset that a platform like Twitter becomes.
Consistently broadcast your authentic self, and youâll undoubtedly find an audience. Used strategically, the possibilities are endless.

I know several people who have obtained jobs, been booked for speaking events, become published authors, began new companies, and have been afforded countless other opportunities as a result of the relationships created on this platform.
How cool is that?!

That being said, social media is a double edged sword. It offers the ability for one to grow their career & personal brand, as well as the ability to destroy it. Be smart.
Your words DO follow you, and you will never be able to entirely take them back. So make them count.

The ability to remain anonymous on this platform is something that I find quite interesting.The color of your skin, gender, age, etc. doesnât have to come into the equation. What u put into the twitterverse is what ppl will know. Simply being judged on the quality of ur thoughts.
Twitter being a microcosm of society in a way, Iâd be remiss if I didnât address its ugly side. There are bad people here. Luckily, u can decide whether or not to deal w/ them! Mean, hurtful accounts are (usually) exposed to the masses & dealt w/ accordingly.Donât bother dwelling
The good of Twitter BY FAR outweighs the bad. Focus on the positives and pay no mind to the rest.
U might become addicted to TWTRIn that case, welcome to the club. U wonât even be mad. Ridiculously fast flow of news & other info, free idea share from brilliant ppl around the
, fun memes & the ability to talk to cool ppl youâd otherwise never have access to? Sign me up!
We get so used to posting our thoughts on here that we forget to stop & listen to opposing views. Listen to understand, instead of to react. We can all learn so much from listening to each other. Itâs OK to change ur opinion when presented with additional info & POVs.
With social media, you are NEVER alone.
Feeling down? Someone here is willing to listen. I promise u that. Iâve made some of the closest relationships in my life today from this app, with genuine people who are here to pick u up when ur down. Just say the word. Youâre not alone.
