The reason I quit X 3 years ago

3-4 years ago building on 𝕏, I was on fire.

I spat out threads, tweets, and even emails like it was nothing.

My storytelling was great too. It's safe to say I was among the 1% creators on MONEY TWITTER in 2022/2023.

I was getting engagement, slowly building a fan base and it was going well. It was beautiful and I felt really accomplished.

But then I quit.

I'll tell you why…

Back then anyone who quit posting was considered weak and didn't know what they wanted to do with their life.

I never thought I would also fall into that category.

It started to dawn on me that I was only focusing on the easy part which was writing and posting.

Besides the engagement I got on my post, everything else was quiet.

I made almost no money from it.

I knew how to write good stories, good threads, and tweets, and also how to get people to engage with my posts, but I didn't know how to turn that attention into income.

Hence, I started gradually losing interest.

The space between figuring out how to monetize my attention and quitting had me confused and overwhelmed.

My posts became less frequent, my threads almost non-existent, and my emails stopped completely until I finally quit.

I did try a lot of ways to turn my attention into income, but I didn't stick to anyone long enough for it to work out.

And then I just decided it wasn't worth it.

But today, 3 years later I am back to Twitter and this time I won't be leaving.

I still don't have it all figured out but one thing is certain, 𝕏 is the app for me and I am going to make the most out of it.

Now over to you.

How have the last 3 years been?

Are you still active on 𝕏? I noticed a lot of people from 3 years ago also left so I want to know if you're still building on 𝕏.

Shoot me a reply let me hear from you.

In subsequent emails, I'll tell you everything I tried, and what has solidified my belief that 𝕏 is the platform for me but for now let me hear from you.

Shoot me a response.

Your queen,

Happiness.
