Always work towards your freedom, and make your decisions based on achieving that freedom

We are going to practice audience-driven product development

With every piece of content that you put out, ask yourself, am I a giver or a taker?

Decide on a format for your content, set up your routines and get yourself out there. Being a thought leader is mandatory for your side project’s success

Work on setting expectations and on perfecting “The Switch”

PART 2/2: WRITING

5 minute drill / over time / while at work

#1 - Map it out with Bullets






Be in the mentality of a “Braindump” and don’t over think!

Write just bullets, nothing more than that. 1 word to 2 sentences each

The bullets should be IN NO PARTICULAR ORDER

You can also add sub-bullets. Again - in no particular order



PART 2/2: WRITING

#2 - Turn your bullets into paragraphs

Where to go from here:
