    Here’s a brain dump on how I think about creating content. My secret to high output is ensuring I’m always in one of the five stages.

    Create Content Consistently: 1. Make a list called “Topic Ideas”. 2. Add topics whenever you get an idea. 3. Steal ideas from everything you consume. 4. Schedule a consistent time to create content. 5. Show up, choose an item on the list, and make it.

    If you're not filming your podcast, you're making a huge mistake.

    In a few years, you'll wish you started filming your podcast now. So much post production potential. Don't overthink the gear. You already have what you need. Set up a webcam or a phone if you have to. Get creative. Refuse to record another podcast without also capturing video.

    Four years ago, I decided to take off 2020 as a sabbatical year to travel the world. We moved out of our house at the end of January. Without a house or car, we set off to see the world with nothing but backpacks. A month later, the pandemic hit.

    It's much better to develop the habits of writing consistently and maintaining healthy cashflow. Bursts look sexy and feel productive, but doing less—more consistently—wins every time.

    I am guilty of exactly this kind of all-or-nothing thinking. I've written 55,614 words in a single day... ...and then written nothing for weeks. I've made $177,803 on a launch... ...and then struggled with cashflow in other months of the year.

    We tend to overvalue bursts and undervalue consistency.

    Micro Copy: Where are you missing opportunities to reduce friction? Example: Your Calendly event description boxes. Look for places to anticipate your prospect's thoughts and appeal to their desires.

    Why you should start a podcast in 2020: 1. Film yourself recording a show once per week. 2. Let us turn it into daily videos for you (with titles, captions, animated progress bars—optimized for the top 5 platforms) so you can post 150+ times a month.

    1/ I think a podcast is the #1 channel you can use to build a brand -- B2C, B2B, individual, doesn't matter. Brand is not your logo or cool website design. Brand = your reputation. No better way to build a reputation than getting inside someone's headphones.

    Me scrolling through Twitter on my phone right now while my iPad sits in my lap with the writing app open.

    Being distracted by the Internet stops more writers from putting words on the page than anything else

    Person A starts with an ask: They're seen as a TAKER. Person B starts with a gift: They're seen as a GIVER. Person A asks again: They're ignored. Person B asks in the second conversation: They're seen as a GIVER asking for a favor. Your first act brands you as GIVER or TAKER.

    I had the opportunity to submit a complete walkthrough screencast of my Ulysses setup—showing you all of my folders and how I organize my writing. You'll also find inspiration in a lot of the other setups included (I did).

    Today, The Sweet Setup launched a massive update to the Learn Ulysses course—a complete overhaul! You can get 20% off during the launch period, so I suggest taking advantage of that.

    Writing is an key part of how I make a living. But my writing was scattered all over my hard drive in various apps and folders. Learn Ulysses brought sanity and cohesion to my writing. Never looked back! I highly recommend this course by .
