The "worst" thing you can do in your writing (or life)

Bringing others down to prove you're "the best".

I see this on LinkedIn all the time. Example:

1. Most marketing gurus tell you to do [this]
2. Here's [insert my new approach]
3. [My] approach is [better]

Recognize the template?

This is called "combative" marketing. And it's wrong.

If anything, it makes your writing weaker.
It brings unnecessary negativity into the mix.
Now, simply skip Step 1 above. That's literally it.

You don't need to bring a method down to prove yours is better. Simply show why yours is "good".

Stop fighting to beat others
↳ Start fighting to beat the odds in your favor

There's a life lesson in here too. ;)

P.S. Have you seen this "fighting" method too?
