This is unconventional — Most people will tell you if you want to succeed writing on the internet you need to be consistent. You need to show up. And you do. The trouble is. Knowing that doesn’t help much. It doesn’t tell you much about how, why, or what it’s like to write on…

And you can too — There is no time and there is all the time. That’s how I think when it comes to goals. There is no time to waste, all you have is now, you might never get this moment again (shoutout JLS). But in the same thought, in a different domain, you have…

And make it — Every morning I sit down to write, this guy sits beside me. As I type, he’s there reciting every word with sarcasm. He’s there running back over the lines and the moment he spots weakness he chimes in. When I’m low on ideas, low on self-esteem or low on…anything really…

How I kept going — Your ability to show up when feeling dejected, that’s how you never quit. I’ve written almost every day on the internet for the last 1,080 days. There were days when I felt like throwing in the towel, days when I felt overwhelming happiness, and days when I felt nothing. It’s…

Even when you have little time on your hands — Great writers are great iterators. They know that the thing they just published is a springboard for their next iteration of content. A never-ending loop to craft their best work. If there was one misconception that killed my writing in the early days it was thinking that the thing I…

A simple way to create more content — Building an online brand is anchored in creating great content. The trouble is it can be tricky to come up with ideas, day in, and day out for content, especially when you have 101 other things to be doing. But you don’t have to be scratching your head for hours…
