It isn’t real

Here’s something I never deal with anymore:

Writer’s block.

Honestly I don't think writer's block is even real. I think it's a excuse we give for something else.

Years ago I read a short, valuable book by James Webb Young called A Technique for Producing Ideas. The part that stood out for me the most was that good ideas don't just appear out of nowhere. They emerge gradually out of the research that you do on a daily basis.

Which turned into something I’ve believed ever since:

===

There's no such thing as writer's block. Only a lack of research.

===

Bottom line, if you’re stuck staring at a blank page, it’s not a writing problem, it’s a research problem.

And research is the part that no one does because it's slow, boring, and it doesn’t bring you thousands of likes and followers online. At least not directly. But what if it brought you those things indirectly?

Or what if it brought you something even more important?

Just imagine…

It’s Monday morning. Last weeks content has already been analyzed. Your best posts flagged by what actually brings in subscribers, customers, and clients. You know what worked, you know what didn’t, and best of all, you even know why.

The creators you follow?

All their best stuff has been looked at too.

Analyzed, broken down, categorized, and presented to you as a “best of” list so that you know what to write if you’d like some easy engagement, or you know what to rally against if you want to cause a scene and actually find some real fans for once.

That’s what Monday morning looks like when you build an AI knowledge system around the way you work.

And it’s precisely the thing I’ve been bangin’ on about all week (in case you haven’t noticed).

So here’s the deal…

I’m fairly certain most people have no idea what’s working and what’s not when it comes to their content. So they guess. And they guess it’s the stuff that get’s the most views or the most likes. But that’s almost certainly not the truth.

The truth is, tje numbers that are easiest to see are also the ones that lie to you.

That’s why most people end up writing for applause instead of writing to grow their business.

So instead of spending Monday looking at your content metrics like a frightened groundhog trying to remember what to do, you can spend it picking which of your own good ideas to use.

That’s what you’ll get when you attend the Knowledge System Workshop.

Doors close at precisely 11:59 pm Eastern on Wednesday, October 7th.

There are four spots available at the time of writing. So hop, skip, and jump on over if you think that’s something that might benefit you.
