Obsession beats discipline - go all-in on your craft until you either die or get reborn.
Build Daily Writing Habit That Compounds
Anyone who wants to develop ideas through writing. People who want to build audience through consistent output. Those who struggle with consistency and need a sustainable system.
30 days to habit, 1 year to meaningful compound effectWhat Success Looks Like
You write daily without struggle. Your ideas have clarified through the process of articulating them. You have a body of work that compounds. Writing has become a tool for thinking, not just communication.
Steps to Execute
Start with stream of consciousness: no editing, no judgment, just write. The goal is to establish the habit before worrying about quality.
Write daily without exception: the consistency matters more than the length. Even 100 words counts.
Post publicly: writing online creates accountability and forces you to clarify thoughts for an audience
Use writing to process: when stuck on a problem, write about it. The act of writing forces clarity.
Let the habit compound: over months and years, daily writing builds a body of work, an audience, and refined thinking

Example

Over months, the writing clarifies their thinking. Over a year, they have built an audience around their specific perspective. The daily habit has become automatic.”
