Why I stopped writing DMs (and you should too)

Hey frriieend,

Let me be real with you for a second.

Not too long ago, I was deep in the grind.

You know the type - sending cold DMs at midnight, chasing replies, trying to spark conversations while my brain was half-asleep. 🧠💤

I thought that was just “how you grow.”

Hustle. Outwork. Outlast.

But the truth?

It was draining my energy, killing my momentum, and barely moving the needle.

At some point, I had to ask:

👉 “What if the problem isn’t me - it’s the way I’m doing this?”

That’s when I started leaning into automation.

Not spammy. Not robotic.

Just thoughtful systems that could handle the heavy lifting - so I wasn’t stuck on Twitter at 2 AM. 💡

And the shift? Crazy.

✅ More replies (without the late nights)

✅ More real conversations (without the copy-paste burnout)

✅ More revenue (without sacrificing focus)

But honestly? The best part wasn’t the numbers. 

It was the freedom to think big again and not feel like a robot glued to my phone. 📱🚫

I’ve seen friends, clients, and fellow founders go through the same transformation.

When they stopped grinding out cold DMs by hand and let a smart system handle it, their engagement and growth started to compound. 📈

So, if you’re feeling stuck in the same cycle I was...

You don’t have to do it the hard way.

Let the systems run.

You focus on building.

That’s the real game. 🎯
