Twitter / "X" - Continued

 Twitter - Continued - "X"

As we all know now, Twitter is the old formerly known app that allows people to tweet daily and give live updates on events and other occasions. Today the app is known as "X" which has a simple but nice design. More modern than the previous one. But personally, I actually enjoyed the name Twitter more and I thought the bird was very fitting even to the point of calling your posts tweets. I thought it added character and more of a fun atmosphere. Now it comes across as rather dry but professional. So both brands do have positives and negatives so let us take a look at what one should know.

    Starting with your cover photo. This is what viewers will first see when coming to your profile and because it is a rather large picture make sure it sends your message and draws good attention. This photo can really give you a professional look and if you would like to go even further pay for X Blue. This is a subscription that adds a verified blue check next to your tweets. This blue check does draw attention and certainly makes your published information come across as more valid. And this is only 8$/month, not too bad. You also gain some additional features with this including being able to post content that is longer and exceeds the normal parameters. If one wants to take another step up one can pay 1,000$/month for X
Gold. This grants you a gold check, a square avatar, custom business affiliated badges and a verified organizations portal. This could be a game changer to a certain extent. If the majority of your market and revenue stems from X, one should consider joining X Gold as this can present you as far more professional than regular X. This can be a game changer in growing your business and gaining followers who believe in you and your content. You are simply taken more seriously. 

    There are lots of insights one must pay attention to when trying to market a product/business on X. Pictures and videos for example see a greater engagement rate than tweets without them. Make sure to constantly reanalyze and see which methods worked and which turned out to be a failure. Having this growth mindset can help separate you from others and not get discouraged when times get rough. And just like most other social media platforms make sure to use hashtags for your business and ones that are currently trending/popular. And DO NOT go crazy with hashtags as more than to will drop rates by 17%. Look at analytics and keep your target market in mind, doing so and learning from the past will guarantee you a chance at success.

Stress

 Stress Once again we are in a part of the year where classes get more difficult and the amount of work that needs to be done increases. Besides basketball picking up as we are approaching our first official game this Saturday against Kalamazoo College in Michigan. I have numerous tests and assessments in many of my classes to study for. Therefore this off-day tomorrow will be a huge part of my week. Hopefully, it takes some of the stress off me.      Not going to lie, yes I have been under some stress lately which does not help when having to manage many things at once. But perhaps that is where it comes from. Either way, I need to make sure to utilize my off day and get some things done in an effort to free up the rest of my week. Having more time for the remainder of the week is huge as Saturday is scratched and the entire day will go to the game. This means that I only really get Sunday to do the things I need to do. Some of these are important for my future such as writing a cover

Locking In

 Locking In We are finally here, at this point in the semester. The days are getting shorter and the temperatures are dropping and all students are eagerly awaiting the last exam and starting their journey home for Christmas break. I cannot wait for this moment of relief, knowing another semester has come to an end and that I earned my time off. These last 3 weeks move very quickly and before you know it break will be here. Even if it seems too far away at this moment in time. But with all the assignments, final projects and exams all lying in these 3 weeks it is essential to lock in and not slack off. Some deciding factors of grades are made during this time so I advise you and myself to just push through. It will be over soon.     One way to do this if you haven't done so already is to write down all the tasks you have for the rest of our time here. Not only does this give you a better understanding of what and how much time you should invest. If entering this data on a calendar

Struggle and Pain

 Struggle and Pain The beauty of struggle and pain is something that oftentimes is forgotten, especially for people going through hardships. The bottom line is that without struggle or pain or both, you will not be able to flourish into the best version of yourself. Bamboo takes a year to sprout out the ground, during which it expands roots underneath the surface, building a foundation, for when it does sprout it grows so fast it is considered to be the fastest growing plant. However, this is not always the case because a lot of the time you will be dealt a deck of cards with challenge after challenge just trying to push and keep you down and often it feels like that breaking through the ground will never happen. And sometimes it doesn't. But even if it does not work out in one path of life it will in another and do not forget all the valuable lessons and the resilience you have built up to that point. Simply put you would not be the person you are without it.     These feelings of
