I had to settle for getting down as fast as I could, stay focused and make it enjoyable for both parties. But it wasn’t always like this.

I had plans to create a lot of content this year but creating content even articles as small as this requires a lot of planning and work to get it done. So I did what any rational lazy human being would do — I consumed more than creating and in the process found things that resonated with me that I could adapt.

An example is this article and more recent ones — I pick a single point of focus and write about it; ignoring every other interesting idea or ways it could be better. I try to finish the article in that one go — usually in under 30minutes.

Yeah, it’s usually the initial draft but it first must be done — if I stop midway, it’s probably already containing too much and I may never finish it. I read it over and over again severally, neatening it up here before it’s finally ready for your consumption.

It will be a great idea if you follow me if you don’t already so you will know when I push out new stuff. Kindly share as well
