“Everything can be taken from a man but the last of the human freedoms: choose choose one’s attitude in any given set of circumstances, To choose one’s own way.“ - Victor Frankl In my case, this means that despite adversity I choose to show up as an entrepreneur. A person with solutions to problems. In physical challenge and illness, I choose to show up as a person who refuses to be stopped by such things. What about you? How do you choose to show up? Put your answer below. . . . . . #victorfrankl #FreedomOfSpeech #RayEdwards #Copywriting #CopywritingClub #Marketing #RSGCommunity (at Spokane, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CNFHP9MDAXL/?igshid=1lnngcnpx159u

I know a lot of us are hurting and afraid (with tons of good reasons). I take comfort in knowing that no matter what happens, God’s got this. One thing I'm learning is when it comes to things only God can do, I'm better off leaving those things to God. As for me … if you need help making more sales of your products, services, or ideas … if your business (or income) took a hit last year, my intention in 2021 is to help you prosper. I’ll do it by sharing the lessons I’ve learned about copywriting and marketing (I’ve got over 35 years in this business now). I’ve made most of the mistakes, and probably will make a few more before I’m done. But I promise you this: I’ll always give you the best I’ve got. May God’s love, and goodness and mercy, follow you all the days of your life. . . . . . #RayEdwards #Copywriting #Marketing #Copywriter #Prosperity #ProsperityWithPurpose #PermissionToProsper #entrepreneur #entrepreneurship #Entrepreneurs #Entrepreneurlife #entrepreneurlifestyle #entrepreneurmindset #EntrepreneurQuotes #entrepreneurial #Christian #entrepreneurslife #entrepreneurmotivation #entrepreneurialmindset #entrepreneurstyle #EntrepreneurTips #entrepreneurship101 #EntrepreneurSpirit #entrepreneurgoals  #entrepreneurtip #entrepreneurmind #EntrepreneurClass #entrepreneurquote #entrepreneurmagazine #entrepreneurlyfestyle Photo credit @jordanwertmanphotography (at Spokane, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CKHROtoD1NH/?igshid=6af6m5j1b2u0

I was outlining what I thought was a great book idea: “How to Triple Your Productivity”. Then I realized I didn’t need to write a book. Being productive is more about eliminating resistance (drag) than about getting better at anything. Here are 3 simple practices that, in my experience, will triple your output: 1. Do one thing at a time, for a focused block of time (using a digital timer), to the exclusion of all else. 2. Check email only once per day. 3. Accept no incoming phone calls, and return voicemails only once per day. And here’s the thing: for these practices to work, you can’t do them halfheartedly. As they say, “Half measures availed us nothing.” You must be a fanatic. You must bring intensity to the game. Try these 3 practices (with full-on emotional intensity) for one week and see the difference in your output. There. I just saved you $14.95 and 179 pages of unnecesary reading. You’re welcome. #Productivity #Copywriter #RayEdwards #entrepreneur #entrepreneurship #Entrepreneurs #Entrepreneurlife #entrepreneurlifestyle #entrepreneurmindset #EntrepreneurQuotes #entrepreneurial #entrepreneursofinstagram #entrepreneurslife #entrepreneurmotivation #entrepreneurialmindset #entrepreneurstyle #EntrepreneurTips #entrepreneurship101 #EntrepreneurSpirit #entrepreneurgoals #entrepreneurtip #entrepreneurmind #entrepreneur #entrepreneurdose #EntrepreneurClass #entrepreneurquote #entrepreneurmagazine #entrepreneurlyfestyle (at Spokane, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIsyZyODPxX/?igshid=59rxh4outpv

Six weeks ago I had rotator cuff surgery on my right shoulder. I'm still in more pain than I was pre-surgery. But… Things are definitely looking up. Yesterday the surgeon pronounced me to be "right on schedule" in the recovery process. It'll take six months for me to feel "normal" again, and a year for the healing to be complete. But everything is going well. Today is my first day out of the sling for an extended period of time. I'm sore, and stiff, but I feel like I came in number one ☝️in one of my life's bigger challenges! Whatever you're going through, there's always something to look forward to. There's always a better day. There's always tomorrow. Keep going! #copywriting #rayedwards #copywriting (at Spokane, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CG3i3UpD16I/?igshid=1es0afn60ddmm

There are three “pivots“ we can all make it will help provide us with more prosperity (not just money). Even though you may be tired of hearing the word “pivot“ these days, I think you may benefit from considering these three. Covered in today’s podcast.

Do you get stressed out by all the negative stuff on Instagram and Facebook? The platforms themselves are neutral. Social media is not the problem. It is merely a distribution channel of ideas. The problem is allowing the negative, hateful voices to dominate the space. And here’s a clue my friends: the way to win that battle is not to try to shout them down. It’s not to argue your point against the negative, the hate filled, fearful, the intolerant. The way to win the battle for hearts and minds is to speak to those hearts and minds. Speak your message of love, of hope, of inclusiveness. Social media is the ultimate democratization of ideas. The ultimate level playing field of all voices. It only becomes a playground full of strife, hatred, and anger if we remain silent with our message of hope, peace, and love. Or so it seems to me. #rayedwards #rayedwardspodcast #copywriting #copywritingtips #copywritingservices #copywritingservice #copywritingpro #CopywritingBlog #copywritingskills #copywritingtips #copywritingservices #copywritingcreative #copywritinglife (at Spokane, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEjVGTmjBk6/?igshid=pvg8tzmk3wtl

Is it better to build a business based on “you” (as in “yourname.com“), or should the business be built on an impersonal “corporate” brand identity? The arguments against a personal brand usually stack up somethinglike this: 1. Time for money: Some say the only way to have a personal brand is you have to be the one “cranking the widgets”. 2. Scalability: Advocates of not having a personal brand say that a single human being is not scalable. 3. Salability: critics of a personal brand claim it is not possible to sell a personal brand. 4. Succession: those who counsel against personal brands point out how difficult it is to have real succession in a personal brand based business. Are these arguments against personal brands actually truetrue? Is it possible to overcome each of these obstacles? Is it possible to turn each obstacle into a distinct advantage?
