    +The world rewards not the best ideas, but the ones who are best at communicating those ideas. Improve Your Ideas with a note-taking system: •Cold Notebooks for ideas that you are passively interested in •Hot Notebooks for ideas you are actively working on. The Content Triangle: +Have a conversation and then share it via Email, then publish a blog post. Then you get the 3rd series of feedback. +Have a conversation with someone and use transcription software to record the conversation. Then organize those thoughts into a post. Write CLEAR Sentences: •Create a Rhythm •Link your Sentences •Eliminate Anything that is Confusing •Add Colourful Detail •Remove Unnecessary Words +Fast writing is writing 1st and researching 2nd. +Grow your audience on open platforms: •Twitter •Medium •LinkedIn ...And build your relationships on owned ones: •Email •Website •PodCast +Expertise is a ladder. There are 8 rungs. People at the top are the PhDs. The PhDs are writing for people on rung 6 and 7. People on rung 1 don't benefit from people on rung 8. The level 2/3/4 need 5/6. We can only talk to people within 2 rungs. + If you are interested in history. Break it down. What are the 5 things you are interested in within history? The American Civil war, The Scottish Enlightenment, Australian Aborigines, etc. Within each of those 5 things, what is the thing that you are the most interested in? And then write about that.

    Feels like Roam Research saves the complexity of cold/hot notebooks. Focus on capturing notes, and Roam will do the rest (if you sync it with Readwise for example. To go a little further, use a system to review notes, as Zettelkasten (or other) : read the notes, sum them up in your own words, and tag everything in Roam. Then when you want to write something, create a new page for the project, and collect from your database in Roam.

    David your content so damn legit!! Thanks for putting this out here! I’m creating a series on my channel to help dyslexics become smarter using technology so they could develop their “personal monopoly”. Would love to do a collaboration/interview with about your course and ideas around building a personal monopoly.

    Thank you David 🙏 Really eye opening. I've been writing online for some time and am now moving my niche, so this has come at the perfect time. Had a system before but this is another level! Have completed BASB so going to utilise this alongside your amazing system here. Thank you so much for sharing this. So much gold. Love the use of audio recorder and transcription for getting the thoughts out of your head and into a very usable format.

    Can you tell us why, despite the fact that you have been told by many people that you were not good at writing, you made a decision to pursue being a writer as your career? You mentioned you failed to be a youtuber, but still there are a lot more alternatives out there other than writers and content creators. What made you decide to stick with writing?
