Naval Letter Chapter 1

 Date: 29 March 2021

Day & Time: Monday 20:43


Dear Mr Rabbit,


I know you are shy to come out from your cosy little home, to explore the world, 


But let me share with you what I have learned today, and its pretty interesting. 


Help prep for lunch meal, seafood bee hoon, and it taste great, one of the sweetest bee hoon I eaten, cus I dont have much palate memory. 


You know, prep-ing today is pretty easy, defrosting of prawn and sotong, cut away the wisker and horn from the prawn. Cutting about 2kg of veg, onion and spring onion. Simple task. 


All done within 2h, 1hour before lunch. Snacked more seaweed than any of the crew on board, I think so, don't tell anyone. 


Thats all for cooking, jumping over to knowledge learning. 


You know I learned something useful from Gary Halbert, The Baron Letter since I cant use phone on board, only to resort to paper and pen for leasure. 


Back to basic.


When writing a letter (or email in post covid situation), it is to personalize. 


You might be wondering whats the big deal of personalization, and the answer is simple, 


Personalized stuff allows the person receiving from the other end feel important.  


Cus since when was the last time you receive a personalize object, it is all general stuff, A brand name on a T-shirt, a spam email from a a random person. 


It makes people feel impoertant. And in that aspect, increase the perceive value of a particular item or object, online of offline. 


And speaking of personalising, you know how I started this letter? 


Time? 


Place? 


Person? 


I included Date, Day and Time. 


And one of the more important aspect, 


Dear Rabbit.


All this are personalised stuff.


Date, Day and Time tells you when I am writing this chunk of words, you are sort of involved in the letter, 


Dear XYZ, is specifically for you, not Mrs Girraf, or Mr Lion. 


It's for you. 


So what have you learned today? 


Personalise stuff for people and make them feel them feel involved. 


That's it for today, and I will write you in tmr


Till then, 

SECURE!

Naval Letter Chapter 23

 Date: 20 Apr 2021 Day & Time: Tue 23:39 Dear Rabbit, Guess what I did for today, its pretty chill and I like it a lot.  How I wish it is like this everyday, every single day.  Wash up galley, rest and DONE.  DONE and DONE.  No Cooking!  And it's my favorite!  I spent my time reading advertising solutions and it like how it was going, one thing I could reduce is to not sleep too much, hahhaha, nap twice.  But you know what? This is the lifestyle I enjoy, study and focus on my learning.  After secure, went back home and started round 2 of learning.  Learning from people who are better than I am in terms of copywriting and marketing.  It's such a bless.  Till tomorrow,  SECURE!

Naval Letter Chapter 22

 Date: 19 Apr 2021 Day & Time: Mon 18:47 Dear Rabbit,  Today I took off, so there is no recepie, that said this whole week have no cooking!  Hahaha Today I hit 80% of what I have to do, but... I feel that im still I'm unproductive.  You see, most of my work are listening and thinking. The only 'physival' work I done was 1h of writing.  That is my only work done.  The rest of the list is exercise, e-lesson, and meeting.  And the lesson is not me sitting down and listen, it is me listening while cooking. How interesting is that? And this made me think, y am I so lazy?  And I thought of James, what he will do?  He will study copywriting.  That's for sure.  So now the question here for myself is:  What do I need to do to study copywriting?  And the answer is very simple  Read the books that I already have.  Go through YouTube ads breakdown Attend webinar and courses. I have the answer, yet I don't take action. An...

Naval Letter Chapter 24

 Date: 21 Apr 2021 Day & Time: Wed 22:20 Dear Rabbit,  This whole week is all about waiting for time to pass.  There is nothing to be cooked and I really enjoy the process.  When there is nothing to be done, what I can do is to do my own stuff, which I did goal setting, what I thought was creating a vision for myself but ended up creating a 5-year goal.  That is good, but I need to refine it, 5-year goal to annual goal, to bi-monthly goal, and then to daily habits.  It's top to bottom, not bottom-up.  And it's a good opportunity, I make use of the 3 hours.  What I will do tomorrow is to finish reading up my book on advertising solutions.  And create 1 mth (or 2) content around it, and I'm sure I can.  After seeing how UJ teach M how to create content, I sure I can too, and I can focus my content creation on other areas.  Content creation currently is daily written, what I need to do is to write more efficiently.  Create in ...
