Not my best week on here.
But I know what went wrong.
There are lots of ‘what I did right’ THREADS.
I thought I’d do something a little different.
So I’ll tell you what NOT to do.

I Took my Foot off the Gas
As a brand new user I thought 1,000 followers was massive when I first started. It’s not.
I hit it last weekend.

Lost a little hunger and drive after it.
1 week wasted.
Solution - Reset my Twitter Goals.

Lacked a Proper Plan
I didn’t take the time over the weekend like I normally do to properly plan my week.
I had a hectic week with one of my businesses so it swamped my time.
Didn’t plan properly for Twitter, so just did it when I ‘had time’.
Fail!

Went away from what worked
I started to think that when I hit 1,000 followers that I needed to change what I was doing.
So I did. And it didn’t work.

Why? It wasn’t my style.
I didn’t feel it.
Solution - Go back to what works. But better!

My Engagement Dropped
I was on Twitter this week, but I wasn’t really ‘on’.
I didn’t have a purpose like I’ve had in previous weeks.
I wasn’t ‘dialed in’.
Small blocks of time don’t work for me.
Solution - Put time aside, with no distractions. FOCUS.

Stopped Providing Value
It doesn’t matter how many followers you have. If you’re not providing value they’re not going to stick around.
I didn’t provide much value this week.
Sorry!

Solution - Provide quality for people. Plus quote retweet more.

Lost my Personality
Not literally, but my account did.

Because I was ‘going through the motions’ this week, I didn’t really enjoy myself.
It came out in my tweets.
I’ve loved being on here, enjoyment drives quality.
Solution - Have Fun!

Hopefully this is a reminder that not every week is great.
Don’t give up.
