1
You need to learn how to write, not so that you can become famous, but so that you know how to use your brain.
2
More and more people are becoming dependent on AI, robots, machinery to do their thinking for them.
3
And I'm not okay with that.
4
It makes me very angry to think about that.
5
Look at any comment section on the internet and you can see the intellectual decline of our species.
6
Not okay, not all right.
7
And if you can feel your own brain starting to get lazy, starting to not think so clearly, it's hard for you to sit down and even fill a single page with your own thoughts.
8
It's time to step in and build in a writing process into your life
9
so that you can tap into your own inner creativity and not lose yourself to the development of machinery we don't understand.
10
Also, you'll create some pretty interesting things.
11
I think you're capable of creating amazing art if you so wish.
12
But on a basic level, writing, communication, having ideas, and spreading them is part of the human experience.
13
And we need you to do that in an age of unprecedented AI.
14
Today, I wrote 12 pages by hand.
15
I write short stories, personal essays, things like that.
16
Writing is a big part of my life.
17
I just enjoy it.
18
It's something that I really like.
19
I need it to feel okay.
20
I rely on it to process my own experience and I'm going to teach you how to do the same thing.
21
I think most people have a really twisted idea of writing
22
or it just feels daunting to them or intimidating and that's because they don't have a process.
23
Writing, more than anything, is a process.
24
So if you're finding yourself already thinking thoughts like, oh, I'm not a writer, oh, I'm not capable of it.
25
It's a skill that you might not have built.
26
It's a skill that you might not have dedicated significant time to try to develop.
27
And I'm telling you, more than ever before, it is important that you develop it.
28
And when you do, it's going to be fun.
29
Like, when you can communicate your own ideas, it's fun.
30
Okay, let's start at the very beginning.
31
What you're going to do, if you're interested, is you're going to get yourself a journal or some collection of paper, physical paper that you can write with and on.
32
You're going to get a pen or a pencil, something that feels good in your hand and you're going to start your writing process by hand, the same way you learned how to write when you were in kindergarten, first grade, whatever.
33
You started just with this kind of analog, very physical experience.
34
And I recommend that you do that as well.
35
There is something so freeing about looking at a page compared to staring at a blinking cursor.
36
A lot of people's main experience with writing is staring at a blinking cursor, not being able to come up with the first sentence and then feeling like, oh, I can't do it.
37
I'm not good.
38
I can't think of something, oh, I'm bad, and then giving up.
39
If your primary experience around a task is failing and then giving up, of course you're not going to want to do it.
40
That's not fun at all.
41
We're going to reconnect you to the magic, the sense of fun that comes from this.
42
So get yourself something where a blinking cursor isn't going to stare you down.
43
Get a pen, sit down.
44
Here's how the writing process starts.
45
It starts with drafting.
46
The important thing with the drafting process is that you don't get in your own way.
47
Most people start editing the work immediately, and that's really what's going on when you have writer's block or when you're staring at a blinking cursor, is you're trying to edit it already.
48
You're thinking too hard about what the final product has to be.
49
And you're not letting the idea flow.
50
You got to get everything out on the page.
51
The first draft should feel like creating a sandbox.
52
Okay, just generating as much raw material as you can.
53
You're going to mess with it later.
54
You're going to delete stuff.
55
There is absolutely zero pressure when you are drafting.
56
So I want you to take the idea and just write it in its most basic form.
57
This is a speech about blank, or this is a story about blank, or if there's a single image that comes to mind, you're going to write that image down.
58
Boom, you've started.
59
The process has begun.
60
You are no longer looking at a blank page.
61
That's huge.
62
The main thing is that you don't look at a blank page.
63
What you're going to do on this first page is you are going to ruin it.
64
You're going to make a mess.
65
You're going to do a bad job on purpose.
66
You're going to remove any and all psychic pressure that you're putting on yourself to create something good, and you're going to make a messy,
67
horrible job that then you can maybe mess with later and clean up later if you want.
68
You might not want to.
69
Okay, so you're going to fill the page.
70
Just fill it.
71
The drafting process needs to be fast.
72
It needs to be like just ferocious, fast and furious.
73
You got to go fast.
74
You got to fill the page.
75
Your hand and your forearm should be getting sore from the speed at which you're going.
76
Pause.
77
And you're just going to do this until your idea is either fully fleshed out
78
or until you need to take a break.
79
And then you just take a break.
80
What you're not going to do is you're not going to purposely run yourself into the ground.
81
I'm going to write an entire novel right now.
82
I'm going to fill this entire page of...
83
No. Nope.
84
You're going to pay attention to what's going on inside your body
85
and brain and notice when you get tired and then you're going to pause.
86
I can take a short break.
87
What I do is I go make another cup of coffee
88
or I take a walk around the block or I say what's up to my roommates or I eat an orange.
89
Notice how different this process is compared to using ChatGPT or another AI.
90
Everything that comes out of you during the drafting process is coming from you.
91
It is your most honest take.
92
And what you're going to notice if you've been depending on these tools 100% for all of your writing, you're going to notice that it's hard.
93
Like it's hard to think of stuff and you have to kind of like try and that's a good feeling.
94
And that it's not actually miserable to have to try.
95
You get more interesting material out.
96
You find what is actually you.
97
Because the more that you use ChatGPT, the less you're going to trust your own voice.
98
Because you are letting something speak for you that is not you.
99
And it's not even a physical, biological being.
100
It's not someone with feelings.
101
So that's why you got to draft.
102
You got to write by hand.
103
You got to figure out what is actually you.
104
What ideas are coming from you?
105
What is important?
106
When you're doing it right, which is when you're doing it honestly, good writing is just honest writing.
107
What's going to come out of you onto the page is raw feeling, or it's truth.
108
It's true to you.
109
And it might not sound great.
110
You might doubt it.
111
You might hate it, but it's true.
112
It's coming from you.
113
Just tell the truth.
114
This is Hemingway.
115
When Hemingway, Ernest Hemingway, one of the great writers of the 20th century, could not think of what to say, he went back to one very basic maxim.
116
Write one true sentence.
117
Write one true sentence.
118
You can always think of one true thing to say.
119
Let's say you're doing a journal entry, and you don't know what to write.
120
Okay, what are you feeling?
121
Like right now?
122
You could, I mean, the most honest thing would be like, I don't know what to say right now.
123
I don't feel like I have any good ideas.
124
You know what?
125
This reminds me of when I was in high school
126
and I often felt as if my peers were doing better than me at this, this, and boom.
127
You've just found yourself, you've connected that feeling of not knowing what to write to a personal memory that then you can unpack.
128
You can go into the sensory details of that memory.
129
I remember being in math class and feeling really behind
130
and what it was like to have all my peers look at me.
131
And it doesn't have to be negative, but do you see what I mean of how if you could just take an honest feeling, it ultimately, it leads you down a hallway of interesting ideas that
132
if you could just take one true memory one true experience it'll lead you down a long corridor of doors
133
that you can open and each door leads you into a potential experience
134
or memory that you can unpack through writing this is your human experience
135
and this is what we need you to write about in whatever form makes sense for you not
136
so that you can publish it and become famous unless you want to and that's a separate conversation
137
But just so that you know who you are, so that you are fully engaged with your life.
138
This is like a mental health exercise more than anything.
139
I mean, people get all confused.
140
They think writing is so that they can blow up on social media or whatever.
141
Like, that's great.
142
But what if it meant mental digestion?
143
What if it was a tool for you to process what you're going through?
144
Okay, I know we're getting way off topic here, but that's how these things go usually.
145
This is what the drafting process is like.
146
You go off on a tangent, right?
147
And then you find other interesting truths
148
that you had no idea you were going to stumble into when you set out to write the initial thing.
149
Anyway, so you draft a messy thing by hand.
150
And then what I do next, what I recommend you try, is then transcribing it.
151
So then I open up my computer and then I transcribe what I wrote down in my notebook.
152
I'm holding a mic right now so I can't flip through it
153
but this whole thing
154
and along with like ten others over there is just full
155
every single line is full of blah blah blah blah blah
156
blah blah blah blah blah some of it is good some of it is not
157
so good but every time when I have a finished draft of something a story
158
or an essay whatever I write it I transcribe it
159
and I still don't edit anything I'm not trying to make
160
it good I'm not overthinking anything I'm delaying I'm saying to
161
myself no I'm gonna figure it out later not worrying about it I'm gonna figure it out later.
162
So much of it is just coaching yourself to not stress out in the moment.
163
Because if you start to edit early on, you'll wig out and you'll hate it.
164
So just don't do that.
165
Just, nope, I'm going to trust that initial pass.
166
I'm going to trust the initial effort.
167
There was something in there that is truthful.
168
So you transcribe it over.
169
And then once you have it all transcribed, you take a break, get a glass of water, you go outside.
170
And then when you come back to it, maybe it's the next day.
171
For me, oftentimes I separate it.
172
I have a drafting day and then an editing day, you got to figure out what works for you.
173
You're going to come back to the work and you're going to start editing.
174
And editing is a different vibe.
175
Editing now is much more like surgery where you are thinking critically.
176
You're really using your brain.
177
You're looking at what this material is.
178
You're reading over it again and you're noticing what feels good
179
and exciting and what you want more of and what doesn't really work for you.
180
And you delete the stuff that doesn't work and you keep the stuff
181
that is good and maybe you expand on it, right?
182
Maybe you rewrite some sections.
183
Maybe there's some sections that are really messy.
184
Editing right now as of April of 2026 is where I feel the most resistance
185
or where I feel sometimes the most challenge because I've learned to really enjoy the drafting process.
186
I love taking an idea and ripping through it, just getting it from beginning to end, just running with the idea right away.
187
That used to be really hard for me
188
and I think most people really struggle with starting something because they don't want to mess it up.
189
I've gotten through that.
190
I can now start things pretty easily but then cleaning them up
191
and making them a finished product is the harder part because it's a little bit more tedious, right?
192
You have to be more patient.
193
You have to spend a lot of time going over the same material over and over again, reading through it, reading through it again, reading through it again.
194
And through that repetition, you notice what works and what doesn't, what is exciting and what isn't exciting, what makes your nerve endings go, oh yeah, this is awesome,
195
and what isn't like that.
196
Over time, your internal compass of what's good
197
and what isn't as good or isn't as true becomes more attuned and you get better at editing.
198
But that's why in the editing process, what I coach myself on is just get yourself to publishing it.
199
Basically, my process is fast the whole time.
200
And that is because I want to move on to the next one.
201
Because I know that if I take too much time at any stage of the process, the drafting, the editing, or the publishing on the internet, if I take too much time,
202
I'm going to get lost in it and I'm going to lose some of that spark, and it's likely that I don't finish it.
203
And that's what I found to be true for me.
204
I think this is probably applicable to a lot of people.
205
I think a lot of people move too slow with their projects, and they really don't sprint towards publishing.
206
The problem with that is if you don't publish, you don't move on to the next one, typically.
207
Or then you just have a bunch of unfinished drafts.
208
You have a closet of unfinished projects, and you have no confidence in yourself to be able to complete something.
209
What you need to become a better writer or a better creative in any field is the act of publishing, is the act of finishing something and learning from it and moving on to the next one.
210
And so that's why even in the editing process, which right now I find to be the most difficult part writing-wise, I just tell myself, hey, guess what?
211
It doesn't have to be perfect.
212
And the little reward you get by publishing this is
213
that then you're done with it and you can move on to the next one.
214
And I've got many of my favorite stories that I've published, some of which have done fairly well on the internet by my standards.
215
I didn't think they were that good when I was working on them.
216
I had so much self-doubt at every part of the process.
217
The drafting, the editing, the publishing.
218
My experience, a lot of the writing process is just getting yourself to not freak out
219
and not give up on a project and just stay with the process itself.
220
Understanding that through each iteration on every single thing that you write and publish, you get a little bit better, right?
221
And you find more of your voice, right?
222
You figure out, you start noticing the things that you do often.
223
Like everyone is going to have little intricacies in their process.
224
You know, like for example, this process might not be for you.
225
The whole drafting by hand, whatever.
226
I think it's worth trying, especially if you're someone who isn't writing right now, go back to analog, find your way.
227
But you're going to have your own intricacies.
228
You're going to have your own little rituals that work for you.
229
And those are great.
230
Lean into those.
231
Everyone has their own process.
232
But the most important thing is that you view it as a process
233
and not some character trait that you have or don't have.
234
It is a skill, and the skill is learned through a process.
235
Draft, furious, fast.
236
Why do I keep saying those two words.
237
Draft it messily, inclining to make it bad, trying to make it bad, right?
238
Then you transcribe, carry it all over.
239
It's your first rereading of what you just produced.
240
Don't worry about it yet.
241
You're going to fix it later.
242
Then edit, edit like a surgeon, edit very carefully, but have some fun with it.
243
Don't lose the magic, right?
244
The goal is to keep the thing alive.
245
Okay.
246
I know we're all over the place today, but listen, here's the problem with AI writing and why we need to be so careful of it in the coming years.
247
AI writing is not alive.
248
It was not produced by something that is alive.
249
What we need to figure out as the humans who are alive during this time is what is it
250
that makes human art good?
251
Do we have anything that makes our art better than the machines
252
that are going to become infinitely better at creating infinite content?
253
The AI, I have no doubt, is going to become better at producing viral content than I ever will be, and I need to accept that.
254
But that's never going to stop me from writing because I love the creative process.
255
I love it.
256
Like I need it.
257
It is one of the things I enjoy most in this life.
258
And so I'm going to do it forever.
259
This is a game I'm going to play forever.
260
What I am very compelled by is what is my human edge?
261
What are the things I can do that the machine cannot do?
262
And if you're curious about that as well, the only way you're ever going to figure that out is by trying, getting into the arena, using your skill,
263
using your humanity, training your humanity through creative work.
264
And it's going to come out different than what a machine will produce, but it will be alive.
265
It might be messy.
266
It might be bad.
267
It might not perform on social media compared to what Claude or ChatGPT can crank out in a millisecond, but it will be alive.
268
It will have a pulse.
269
It'll be true, hopefully.
270
But we got to get good.
271
There is a huge skill building component to this.
272
And the only way to build the skill is to show up for it.
273
Understand it's going to be fun.
274
I know I say this all the time.
275
But it is fun.
276
If it's not fun, you're not doing it right.
277
It should feel cathartic.
278
It should feel like you're processing things that need to come out of you.
279
And you will get better over time.
280
But I want you to stop putting this pressure on yourself that it needs to perform well or whatever.
281
No. This is psychological digestion.
282
This is you doing the work as a human being to figure out what's going on inside you
283
and to put words to it.
284
And when you do that really truthfully and honestly, you find that a lot of people resonate.
285
Draft.
286
Transcribe.
287
Edit.
288
Publish.
289
Repeat.
290
Do the whole thing many times.
291
Build it into your way of life.
292
You don't have to publish also.
293
I know I say that because I do that, but like you don't have to.
294
Publishing just means finishing.
295
Just finish the work.
296
This might be as simple as journaling in the morning.
297
This might be as complicated as writing short stories, screenplays, novels, whatever it is for you.
298
But you need to write.
299
We need to train our brains.
300
We need to become smarter.
301
We need to defend ourselves against the attempts to reduce us to dumb, dopamine-addicted zombies.
302
I don't mean to fearmonger here, but I also don't think that I'm speaking entirely out of turn.
303
So anyway, no doom and gloom.
304
This is what's going to give our lives joy and spirit
305
and vitality and it's a process and it's fun
306
and let me know how it goes for you and if you have questions, I'm going to get back to it.

シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
