4 Hacks to Never Run Out of Content
Creativity doesn’t follow the rules of space, time & causation
Meaning that anything goes
There are no rules
☆HACK 1: Talk about what you’ve been thru rather than what’s hot right now
Your experiences are like a fingerprint
It’s different among humans
When you chase the next shiny object, that means you’re looking OUT
Creativity is all about looking IN
How well you know you will dictate how creative you become
Meaning that introspection leads to the artist
Art = Structured Emotions
Or organized Chaos
And your experiences will give you a unique advantage
☆HACK 2: Create content for your younger self rather than a market
When you focus too much on a market, you violate hack 1
You start treating creativity like a chore
You may be good for a while, don’t get me wrong
But after a while, you become jaded toward your work
Big mistake
Give advice to your younger self
This allows you to talk to ONE person rather than a big audience
Your content will become more personalized
You have knowledge now that your younger self could benefit from
So, the topics will be HIGHLY specialized & custom fit
Life Irony:
When you speak to your younger self… you speak to many people’s present-day selves
☆HACK 3: Lead with emotions, edit with logic
Creativity is about turning the intellect off
You’re meant to create with your subconscious mind
The subconscious mind is the emotional feeling mind
And it controls 95% of your reality
Learn to physically feel your emotions
Great art is created from painful emotions
I’m not telling you to go make yourself depressed
But if you are at rock bottom, learn your inner world by sitting with your emotions
Pain helps us get to know ourselves better than any book
You need to train yourself to become feelings-focused FIRST
☆HACK 4: Act like you’re the only person in the universe, then create
Only you exist in the entire universe
No one else
Just you…
You’re not writing for likes
You’re not writing for retweets
You’re not writing to grow your audience…
It’s just you alone in the universe expressing yourself…
The feeling of freedom produces your best work
