If you don't know what skill to learn, learn to write, even if you don't consider yourself a writer, or even if that thought has never crossed your brain.

Because writing teaches you how to think, how to learn any skill fast, and how to attract an audience that supports your work,

which is absolutely needed if you want to build your own business or just do any kind of independent, creative, or meaningful work.

And in the age of AI, thinking, learning, and distribution, or getting your value in front of other people

so you actually have the chance of being paid are timeless skills.

Writing allows you to practice them all while building digital leverage as a byproduct.

Now, I never thought that I would become a writer.

I still don't even call myself one, but that's what I do on a daily basis

because as a business owner or someone who wants to start and build their own thing, that's what you do.

You market, you advertise, you write captions, you write posts, you write emails.

Literally any type of communication you do with your customers or your business partners comes down to writing.

So if you actually incorporate that as a daily habit and practice to make it better, then that's a great thing because that's what the entirety of your business hangs on.

And I don't even look the part.

I don't look like a writer.

I'm just a big dumb meathead who fell in love with deep ideas.

And by all measures, writing as a simple morning habit has completely altered the direction of my life

and the direction slash outcome of my mind.

Because when I was a kid, I would always look up to people who were very articulate with their thoughts, and I never thought that my brain was capable of doing the same thing.

People like Jordan Peterson, Alan Watts, etc. And I just thought that my brain didn't work

that way until I started writing and I could actually feel myself getting smarter and more articulate.

And beyond being able to think and learn faster, writing is a modern form of leverage that anyone has access to.

That's what we're going to go over in the first section of this video.

And you're going to walk away and be like, holy shit, I had no idea that writing something so simple that we all have access to can be so powerful.

As many of you know, my entire business was built on one to two hours every single morning of writing, because how do you get customers in today's world?

Writing.

So in this video, I want to show you my system for capturing ideas and writing content worth reading, but I also want to show you why this path is more viable than ever

and why it will transform how your brain interacts with reality.

And yes, it really is that deep.

So let's begin.

First, we're going to talk about old leverage versus new leverage.

And this is the secret to modern success.

Let's start with a quote from Daniel Presley.

I'm sure many of you know who he is.

He is a great dude.

The biggest leverage is no longer capital.

The biggest leverage is enterprise, the ability to run a great business, and in particular, the biggest leverage is personal brand.

Having a big audience, as soon as you've got enough people paying attention to you, you have this enormous form of leverage.

And the reason this is, is because the rules of wealth creation have fundamentally changed.

The assets that drove income in the industrial age, like property, factories, machinery, physical goods, are being replaced by digital assets,

audience, personal brand, IP, content, data, software that are incredibly cheap to build, more scalable, harder to tax, and compound while you sleep.

The only requirement to building leverage for yourself in today's world is a good idea

and the confidence to post it on the internet.

The problem and where the opportunity lies is that most people are still conditioned by industrial values.

They still think for some reason that going to school, getting a job, and retiring at some age is the safe and secure route when it's the least safe and secure route.

And the same holds true for building leverage for yourself, for increasing your ability to generate wealth.

Old leverage comes from physical, tangible assets.

So you can think a house, a factory, a Rolex, a fleet of trucks, a warehouse of inventory, or gold.

You buy them and then let them appreciate or generate income.

Old leverage is linear and local.

So a factory can only produce so many units per day

and a house can only be rented to one tenant at a time.

Now, don't get me wrong.

Leverage is leverage and old leverage can be a very good thing.

But most people, especially beginners, just don't have the capital to invest in these assets.

You're probably not going to buy real estate anytime soon

if you're in thousands of dollars of student debt and you probably won't buy a Rolex until your business does increasingly well.

And that's the beautiful thing about living in today's world is that leverage is no longer available to only those with capital.

And the Other important thing is that physical assets are going to be the first thing that governments find, tax, and seize if wages collapse,

which is more likely today than yesterday because AI can swiftly do that, leading to governments expanding social safety nets.

Governments are much less likely to seize an email list of 1,000 to 10,000 people

or a library of content or a best-selling book.

Yeah, you can sell your house for $100,000, but you can also just send a well-written email to your email list

and make 10 to $100,000 if you know what you're doing.

New leverage comes from intangible digital assets.

So an audience, personal brand, IP, data, systems, or software.

These are the leverage of the newly rich media, data, and code.

Content can be written once and seen by millions of people.

Software can be created once and serve millions of users.

The things that you use every day, social media and apps or software, the things that are becoming more accessible to you to actually create and build,

you're watching people build leverage in real time for their future, doing something meaningful most of the time.

And for most people, writing is the most accessible and practical form of leverage.

You can learn to code, but if you cannot attract people to care about the product you built, then nobody will use or pay for it.

Writing is the leverage that unlocks other forms of leverage.

Everything you see is essentially writing.

You have social media captions, DMs or messages, advertising, social posts, emails, web page copy, video scripts, articles.

That's the other thing is even if you want to do video in the future, but you don't have the time to edit or you're not confident enough to be in front of the camera yet,

start writing because then you'll have a backlog of scripts

that you can use or you'll just be so much better at grabbing attention than the next person.

And when you do start creating videos, you're going to be miles ahead of the people who didn't practice articulating or organizing their thoughts on paper through writing.

And if you can build an audience on a writing platform like X, Substack, Threads, etc., even Instagram, all of my posts are just written posts in the form of an image,

then when it comes time for you to get on YouTube or do a podcast or do other things like that, you have an audience already built that you can say, hey, here's my YouTube, here are my videos,

and then your audience grows so much faster on YouTube.

That's exactly what I did.

And I'm just an introvert.

It's so much more appealing to just sit down

and enjoy the creative process of writing for one to two hours every morning while sleeping well,

knowing that it is essentially fueling my entire business and life's work or whatever kind of work I want to do.

The other thing is that you won't see these digital assets on a business's balance sheet, but they represent 90% of the S&P 500's value.

Kim Kardashian, Taylor Swift, Ryan Reynolds, Mr. Beast, Elon Musk all have massive audiences and personal brands,

but you probably don't want anything near their level of fame.

And that's perfectly fine

because you don't need millions of followers to make this work This is like one big thing

when I talk to beginner creators They think it's they have millions of followers

or they have nothing personally I replaced my freelancing income at around 5,000 followers.

My buddy Randy is a fitness personal trainer

and at 10,000 followers He was making well over a hundred thousand dollars a month because again, he knew what he was doing.

He studied.

He invested in his education.

He learned the skill of business and marketing and sales that allowed him to do that.

100

People hear that, oh, $100,000 a month, and they think that's absolutely absurd.

101

That's on the low end for business.

102

Like, you're still in this employee mindset of I get paid for my time, not my value.

103

And you have a poor relationship with money that changes how you perceive it.

104

And so you hear $100,000 and you think that's not even close to possible for me.

105

And that's completely fine because you probably don't need that much.

106

And as I said, that's on the low end for like a business that's doing well.

107

So if you just want to replace your income, that's not far off.

108

That's three to six to 12 months of focused learning

109

and effort and skill acquisition and showing up every day and actually putting your thoughts out there and trying to grow.

110

The point is that people drastically overestimate how much is actually required for them to win.

111

And so they psych themselves out.

112

They get paralyzed.

113

Analysis by paralysis, a paralysis by analysis, because all they see is these out of touch celebrities and influencers with millions of followers because that's all they follow.

114

So I'd be stupid if I didn't mention this here, but that's exactly why we run the creator boot camp where you turn your interest into an audience that pays you.

115

You walk away with clarity on the topics that you can talk about, a content system that runs on 60 minutes a day, and one idea that becomes a week of content.

116

General enrollment for this is closed, but it is still available for those who sign up for Eden on the pro plan

117

So if you want to join a community of other creators

118

that are doing the same thing as you and learn everything

119

that you need to start Then check it out with the link in the description

120

or go to Eden.so slash boot camp Now the next thing

121

I want to talk about is how writing completely shifts your brain

122

and your life And this is super hard to explain

123

but writing goes so much deeper than just putting your pen to paper and like drawing little scribbles obviously.

124

It shifts your mind to see the world in a more meaningful way.

125

You make more connections.

126

You receive more good dopamine through those connections.

127

You notice more in the world.

128

Conversations become a source of inspiration.

129

Your thoughts become filled with ideas you're wrestling to understand.

130

You notice more detail in life rather than living on the stressful surface.

131

And so in my eyes, there are four key benefits to writing.

132

The first is that writing rewires how you think.

133

And the core mechanism here is forced linearity, which is just a fancy way of saying that you can feel like you understand something in your head,

134

but writing forces you to collapse it into a single stream.

135

Thinking without writing is like walking through a forest where you can see every direction, while writing itself is like driving on a road through the disorienting mess.

136

You have to decide where you're going, which turns you're going to make, and whether or not you want to take the scenic route and how to navigate back if you get lost.

137

In other words, writing is the apparatus for thinking.

138

It's the gym where your mind is built.

139

So those who are very into health and fitness

140

and go to the gym to strengthen their body and make sure it's healthy, but you're not writing for your mind, you need to make that connection.

141

So you may feel like you understand your feelings

142

or the counter arguments going on in your head or even your own values and beliefs.

143

But until you actually write them out, I can almost guarantee that you don't understand those things and

144

that someone else either planted it in your head

145

or you adopted beliefs and ideologies without question

146

and now they're dominating your mind and taking control of your life

147

and yes it is that serious now benefit number two is

148

that writing increases pattern recognition and therefore it increases dopamine good dopamine

149

and there are a few layers to this the first is

150

that by writing regularly you build an external record of your

151

thinking you are able to quickly reference what you've written in

152

the past as a way of articulating your current thoughts better it It helps you think with clarity.

153

And I'm not talking, you actually go and reference the thing.

154

I'm saying since you wrote it down, since you wrote the newsletter or the article or even just the journal entry,

155

that is now more of a part of your mind and you're able to say those things in a more clear way.

156

Now, the second layer is similar to what's called the photographer's eye.

157

So for a photographer, after a few years of serious practice, you start to see frames and compositions in everyday life.

158

So the world doesn't look the same because you go to a mountain range, you're on a hike, and then you can see something that other people can't.

159

You start to compose the scene in your mind like you were taking a picture, and you start to think and appreciate the scenery that much more.

160

With writing, you notice this when you're speaking with other people, when you're having a conversation in other people's writing, in the books you read.

161

It opens up a deeper appreciation for the art in your life.

162

Now, the third layer is that you notice ideas you normally wouldn't have.

163

And this is just how the mind works.

164

But when you have a goal or a project that you're working towards, your mind kind of conspires in your favor, so to say.

165

Psycho-cybernetics, it notices the things that are going to aid you in achieving your goal.

166

The problem is that most people have unconscious goals.

167

They haven't made their goals conscious, or they haven't set their own meaningful goals that actually trump the unconscious goals.

168

Many people set conscious goals, but their unconscious goals that other people set for them are still more conditioned into their brain.

169

So their conscious goals don't really mean anything.

170

There's no gravity to them and you let them go immediately.

171

That's what most New Year's resolutions are.

172

But for someone who has been conditioned since childhood that they should go to school and be a good student,

173

the idea of starting a business isn't even going to register in their brain because it's a threat to who they are.

174

They're going to notice the ideas and the opportunities that allow them to advance through the traditional school, job, retire path.

175

That's just how it works.

176

It's the same phenomenon where if you take me and take you and we read the same book, different ideas are going to stick out to us

177

and we're going to see different ideas as more important and we're going to remember them.

178

We're essentially going to read two entirely different books just by how we interpret it.

179

And that is all because of the goals and projects that are framing how we perceive situations.

180

So for me, I have a newsletter that I write every single week

181

that turns into this YouTube video and turns into other content.

182

But that is my sole focus.

183

That is the important goal for my week.

184

And so when I go on walks or I listen to conversations, ideas just pop up out of nowhere and somehow connect themselves to my newsletter.

185

And that's how my newsletters and writing become very unique is

186

because I'm not just sitting down and writing it all at once there.

187

I'm collecting ideas just by living my life since I have the newsletter as a top of mind goal.

188

Your mind is like a heat seeking missile toward its goals, but you actually need goals

189

or else you're going to be a heat seeking missile toward the goals that society assigned for you.

190

And that's horrible.

191

So writing is one way out of that mess because you actually have a project to focus your mind on.

192

That's actually the entire learning process as well.

193

That's how you learn most things.

194

So benefit number three is that writing helps you articulate your thoughts as we've touched on.

195

But most people walk around believing they understand things that they don't,

196

not because they're dumb, but because they've never been forced to externalize the thought and actually look at it.

197

Writing is not only a tool to improve communication, thus improving most other areas of your life, but a tool to expose whether or not you actually know what you're talking about.

198

And that's what most people are afraid of when it comes to writing.

199

They're afraid of the struggle that comes from doing something meaningful.

200

They just want to coast by and enjoy their life

201

and hopefully make some money even though they're not putting much effort into it.

202

And of course, they end up in a mediocre life because they're running on autopilot.

203

They don't choose their struggle.

204

Again, they're assigned their struggle.

205

They want the writing or the creative work to be easy.

206

They want all of the ideas to just come to their head immediately.

207

They don't want to sit down and stare at a blank page

208

and be forced to research and learn and Find what their actual beliefs are

209

so they can write it out and that leads to the important next benefit

210

Which is that writing helps you learn faster and the future belongs to those who can learn the fastest

211

Because if the gap between where you are

212

and where you want to be is knowledge is learning is Understanding how to do the things

213

that gets the result of the person you want to be

214

then the person that learns fastest is the one who gets to that point the fastest.

215

The person who doesn't learn at all after graduation, which is what most people do.

216

They go to school, they graduate, and then they never learn a thing again for the rest of their life.

217

They're just going off of their preset knowledge.

218

Writing is the antidote to that because 80% of writing is research and learning.

219

Writing is both a form of teaching and understanding.

220

In learning science, there's the protege effect, which shows that students who teach material retain it better than students who merely study it.

221

The cognitive load required to figure out how to explain something to someone else forces deeper understanding, better organization, and identification of gaps in knowledge.

222

I'm not exaggerating when I say that I learned more in six months of writing

223

when I started out than I did throughout the entirety of college or the entirety of high school.

224

And I'm not talking about like learning basic English and learning how to write letters on a page.

225

I didn't really need to learn basic history because I wasn't that interested in it.

226

I didn't even apply myself and learn it.

227

And now since I chose to write about history in some of my newsletters, I understand it so much better than I did just sitting in a lecture at school.

228

You look at Daniel Schmachtenberger who talks about this quite a bit.

229

He didn't go to school.

230

His parents taught him how to read, how to write, and how to just generally operate within society according to their values.

231

But outside of that, learning is the process of life.

232

Learning is what you do when you're actually pursuing something meaningful and building something meaningful.

233

You learn what you need to learn and you become 10 times more articulate when you do it that way.

234

Lastly, writing demands that you understand.

235

So you read something, you feel like you get it, then you try to write about it and you realize that you can't.

236

And most people think it's because they aren't qualified to write about the topic, which is bullshit.

237

You can write about an idea just like any other person on planet Earth can, just like you can speak it to your friend right now.

238

You can go and tell your friend about the idea that you heard about.

239

If you can do that, you can write about it.

240

That's a limiting belief that stops so many creators and writers when it's just nonsense.

241

You're just creating invisible gatekeepers in your head out of fear of actually doing the thing and publishing your thoughts.

242

But that's actually a good thing, is not knowing how to write it because you don't truly understand it,

243

because that exposes the gap and it gives you the thing to learn next

244

that you would have never have found if you didn't try to write what you have learned.

245

Now we're gonna talk about the writing system

246

that I use to generate ideas people can't help but read and I'm going to go over my general system.

247

This isn't going to be a course.

248

I have plenty of other videos, plenty of resources, the bootcamp like I mentioned.

249

If you want the full step-by-step process and all of the theory

250

and the slides and all of the information you need along with the practices, then go and find it elsewhere.

251

This is a broad overview to just see if you're even interested in it.

252

Now, when it comes to ideas, I've never been the most organized person.

253

I actually think building a second brain

254

or a system for your ideas is like a false god because systems succumb to entropy.

255

They fall apart with time.

256

It's always going to happen.

257

I don't care how perfect your notion system is for capturing ideas.

258

It's going to fall apart one day.

259

It's so cool to you right now.

260

It's not going to be in a year.

261

You're going to grow up you're going to evolve.

262

You're going to try a new system, and then the same thing is going to happen.

263

So just get over it.

264

Embrace the mess.

265

Embrace the chaos.

266

That's where I've honestly found the most success is just embracing the chaos, which doesn't have to be completely chaos, and just jotting ideas down in the same place.

267

Just having a place where I can put ideas down so that at least they're recorded somewhere.

268

And of course, ideas get lost all the time.

269

I can't find them all the time because that's not really the problem.

270

If you need to remember it, then it's not important.

271

And if it's important, you'll remember it.

272

The act of writing it down is just the act of putting your thoughts into words.

273

So I've found that great writing or content on the internet

274

that actually gains traction

275

and doesn't disappear into a black hole of nobody caring about your work boils down to a few things.

276

You need one topic or theme for the week.

277

For me, that's my newsletter.

278

You need a place to quickly jot down ideas.

279

You need a way to capture inspiration.

280

So social posts, YouTube videos, sub stack articles, et cetera, PDFs, images.

281

You need to understand how to package the hook or title

282

so that people actually want to read it because writing or content is like a gift.

283

You have the actual contents, which is what you want to say.

284

Then you have the packaging, what makes other people want to open it and see what's inside.

285

And last, you need to effectively pull from your ideas, inspiration, and research while you're actually writing or creating, because that's why you jot down the ideas in the first place,

286

is to reference them while you're writing.

287

So my system is just that, and we're going to go over it.

288

So the first step is how to pick what to write about.

289

And this one always throws everyone for a loop because they just want to, they've been told to niche down, they don't know what to talk about, they're afraid to talk about multiple things, even though they have multiple interests,

290

and if they have multiple interests, Almost every other human being on the planet can have multiple interests.

291

Like i'm not only interested in business

292

Neither is any other businessman on the planet They can people

293

can become interested in something stop limiting yourself to what you can talk about

294

if you find it important That's unique because you interpreted it

295

and decided to post it That is all the niching down you need

296

because you are not an animal That dies

297

when they get put into a different niche or environment like a lion

298

that gets put in alaska You are a human who learns, builds, and adapts so that they can thrive in any niche.

299

So I operate by two principles when I pick a topic.

300

First, is it something that I find important or worth sharing?

301

Because by simply filtering an idea through my perspective and not overthinking myself to death, it becomes unique.

302

I have a specific identity, and I'm probably not going to speak to soccer moms in their 40s no matter how hard I try.

303

By just talking about what I find worth sharing, it will attract the people I can impact the most.

304

The second principle is, is it packaged or framed in a way that grabs attention?

305

Because as a writer, that's what you do.

306

That's your job.

307

There's journaling and then there's writing.

308

You grab attention.

309

Otherwise, your writing doesn't get read.

310

The way you do that in today's world is by studying what's working on social media

311

and applying the structure and principles to your hook, your title, your structure, etc. I'm subscribed to the Substack subreddit

312

and I got a notification the other day

313

and it was just a person that was complaining about their work not gaining traction

314

but they don't want to do what it takes to gain traction.

315

They're like, oh I love the writing.

316

I just love the writing aspect of it but it's not picking up.

317

Why is that?

318

I don't want to conform my voice to these hooks

319

or these structures or whatever it may be but they can't see that they're contradicting themselves.

320

They want to be a writer, but they don't care what people think, but they also want people to care about their writing, you have to understand

321

that refining your voice for it to be impactful to other people is not sacrificing your authenticity or your voice.

322

It's called improving your voice so that you become a better writer.

323

Before I go on a large tangent and rant, that's just social media growth in a nutshell.

324

That's what you do.

325

And the simplest way to do this is to just research before you actually write the thing, before you post the YouTube video.

326

Look at titles that work.

327

You need to expose yourself to what works over and over again

328

so that your pattern recognition system just knows what to write like it's second nature.

329

You need to read good tweets, viral, maybe not viral tweets, high-performing tweets over and over.

330

You need to read more sub-stack articles that have done well and ask yourself, why did this do so well compared to mine, compared to the ones that didn't do well?

331

You just have to study and learn.

332

That's what you do.

333

And what that does is it shows you and teaches you what the market is already paying attention to.

334

Because if you were to start a business, are you going to go and start something completely new?

335

You.

336

I'm talking about you, not some special genius person.

337

No, what you do when you start a business is you do what works and you make it your own.

338

You can go and sell your productivity journal because people actually buy those, but you add your little spin to it.

339

It's exactly what you do with content.

340

You do what works, but with your own spin from your own voice, from your own interpretation.

341

So there are a few ways to do this.

342

Well, I'm going to show you how to do it in Eden.

343

What I'm going to show you is free to do.

344

You don't have to pay to do any of this, but you can do it anywhere.

345

You can do it in notes or wherever you want to capture ideas to, but you can paste links into your library and just store the ideas here on your phone too.

346

You download the iOS app that's on TestFlight.

347

You hit the quick capture.

348

You jot an idea down.

349

It comes in looking like this.

350

You can add as many as you want, and you can paste social links as well as you scroll and find them on the timeline.

351

So that's the one way you do it is

352

when you see a video that's doing really well or an idea that you want to save, you save it in a place where you can preferably find it later.

353

But as I said, if it disappears, that's fine.

354

But then the next thing you can use is an outlier tool.

355

So there are tools like one of 10

356

that offers like you can look at what's trending on YouTube and there's others like that.

357

But there's also the Discover Feed in Eden.

358

It's a tool.

359

This is what writers use.

360

They use research tools to actually research the market if they don't want to do it manually.

361

But of course, you can do it manually.

362

And one of my favorite things to do is to look for a specific creator

363

and then go to their actual account and then filter their content by top liked.

364

This is especially good if you're trying to get on YouTube

365

and find YouTube titles or just angles that people are already paying attention to.

366

And then you can see people's top YouTube videos or top posts

367

or top notes or top articles or top tweets or top Instagram reels or carousels or whatever it may be.

368

And then if you want to learn how to actually recreate it, just hit the reverse engineer button and then say, hey, I want to recreate this with my own idea, and then you're good to go.

369

And that's exactly what I did for this video and the newsletter that I wrote previously for this.

370

The topic that inspired this video was a video that got like 700,000 views, and it was called The Notebook System That Saved My Brain.

371

I looked at that and I'm like, huh, what about the writing system that saved my brain?

372

What about the writing habit that saved my brain?

373

And the title may not reflect that right now, but it was a good starting point for the idea

374

that I could then write about and of course I can craft the the title

375

and thumbnail later on if I come up with a better idea

376

that may or may not work because none of this is guaranteed.

377

So once you have something to write about what I personally do is create one project for the entire week

378

because I post one newsletter to Substack

379

which is also an article on Substack I copy paste

380

that to x articles which gets posted there as well copy-pasted that eventually turns into a soft YouTube script,

381

and then the YouTube video gets uploaded to podcast channels, and then I can use the original newsletter for tweet ideas throughout the week, or as ideas just come to mind,

382

I can write the tweets as well, and then those get cross-posted to Substack Notes, and then I turn them into images that I can post on Instagram and LinkedIn,

383

and then for some of the tweets that I really like, I'll just sit in front of the camera and read the tweet to the camera, and boom, now I have reels,

384

TikToks, and shorts, and it only took an hour or two every day.

385

And frankly, any more content than that, I know there's Alex Ramosi and other people who just want you to push more and more and more volume, but everyone's doing that, right?

386

If you want a competitive advantage, do something different.

387

Tone it down.

388

Increase the quality of the things that you're doing and make them impossible to ignore.

389

Add a bit of scarcity to your brand so people aren't just overloaded with it.

390

They have to wait for you to actually post something.

391

And when they do see something from you, they aren't used to it.

392

It's a dopamine hit for them when that's not happening for any other creator that they look at.

393

So when I have the topic that I want to write about, I create a project around it.

394

I create a board.

395

Of course, this can be a Notion page.

396

You can write wherever you want.

397

But now what I do, once I have the topic, is I'll create an outline note.

398

And then inside of here, I'll just write out certain things that I think should be in here.

399

This isn't even close to fleshed out.

400

It's just the ideas that came to mind so that I could start to create some kind of structure.

401

Then inside of the board itself, I paste links to YouTube videos inside of here

402

that I think would have good ideas that I could use inside of the newsletter.

403

And then I can have AI chats open alongside me as I write and just ask questions when I need them, or I can reference videos from inside of the board.

404

If I create a new chat, click on this video, and then I just ask it for questions to pull the ideas

405

that I need from inside of it.

406

And then I can quick capture ideas into this board as well

407

so that I can just have them with me as I'm writing, which is honestly a dream come true for any writer.

408

You know how valuable this can be.

409

And then when it comes to generating title ideas or things like that, I just reference the newsletter in the chat.

410

And then if I want them to be data backed, I can have it search for a specific creator's titles, or I can reference swipe files inside of my board because I've saved ideas before.

411

So I have an entire database of YouTube videos and titles that I think work really well inside of here.

412

So I can look through these

413

when it's time to generate ideas for how I want to actually package the newsletter or YouTube video that I'm putting out.

414

So, so far the entire process is just capture ideas as they come to mind and save inspiration, save the posts that you like, that did really well, that have good title structures,

415

that have good ideas in general, jot down your own ideas, and then you create one topic per week and just have that as a project, a central project where you can put all of your research.

416

You can create a note.

417

You can add a bunch of links in there if you want, or you can create a board and just paste everything in, and then you can write with your research alongside it.

418

And then all you really do is you just outline, write, and repurpose as we kind of sort of discussed, but outlining and learning how to structure newsletters,

419

that's like a topic for an entirely new video.

420

So instead, what I found in the Eden Discord, someone created a guide for my top Substack articles for how they're structured.

421

And what I did is I took those

422

and I turned it into a prompt

423

that will ask you for what you want to talk about and then help guide you to creating your first newsletter.

424

So if you actually want to use that prompt, there's a link to it in the description.

425

And that alone will help you write your first newsletter if you want to, or your first article or your first YouTube script or whatever it may be.

426

So that's the entire system.

427

Walking, reading, and about 60 minutes a day of writing forms the foundation for some of the most future-proof skills, learning, thinking, and earning independently.

428

So I'll leave it at that.

429

I'm happy to expand on it more in the future, but if you want to watch more on it now, I'd actually highly recommend watching my last video,

430

which goes over how to pull psychological levers to get people to pay more attention, and that complements writing very nicely.

431

Thank you for watching.

432

Links to the boot camp and prompt in the description.

433

I'll see you in the next video.

434

Bye.

FOR YOU

你能学到什么

这段视频不仅能帮你提升英语口语练习中的表达逻辑，还能让你学会如何用简洁的语言传递复杂观点。比如，视频中提到“写作是现代杠杆”时， speaker 用了大量生活中的例子（如经营企业、与客户沟通）来解释，这种“用故事讲干货”的技巧，能让你的英语口语更有说服力。此外，通过模仿视频中的节奏，你还能掌握在对话中自然转换话题的能力，让交流更流畅。

注意这些发音现象

视频里有不少连读和弱读需要关注。比如“think and learn”中，“think”的尾音/k/和“and”的开头音/æ/连读，听起来像“thin(k) and”；“a big dumb meathead”里，“big”和“dumb”之间的停顿很短，几乎连在一起。还有“holy shit”这种口语化表达，发音时要注意“holy”的重音在第一个音节，“shit”则要轻读，这样才符合 native speaker 的习惯。这些发音细节能让你的 shadow speak 更地道。

像母语者一样表达

想要模仿 speaker 的节奏和重音，关键是抓住他的“强调方式”。比如他说“写作不是作家的专利”时，“不是”和“专利”这两个词的音量明显提高，语速也稍慢，突出了观点的反差。练习时可以用 shadowspeaks 的方法，先逐句跟读，注意重音位置，再逐渐加快速度。另外，视频中 speaker 喜欢用短句和设问句（如“你知道现在获取客户的关键是什么吗？是写作”），这种节奏能让你的口语更有活力。坚持用 shadowing site 练习，不出多久就能明显提高英语发音和表达流畅度。

视频中的语法

说话人最常用的结构，并附上视频中的原话：

结构	视频中的用法
条件句 if + 从句，will/would + 动词 — 条件及其结果	if it's important, you'll remember
现在完成时 have/has + 过去分词 — 过去发生但与现在仍有关联的事	has never crossed · you've written · haven't made
被动语态 be + 过去分词 — 强调发生了什么，而不是谁做的	being paid · was built · being replaced
定语从句 who / which + 从句 — 补充说明人或事物	someone who wants · people who were · people who didn

什么是跟读法？

跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
