How to Write?

A structured approach to writing that emphasizes clarity, focus, and the iterative refinement of ideas 👇🏻

1. Start with a Question or Idea

- You want to explore it by writing.
- Be out-loud! Dump any ideas you have into a list of bullet points.
- Keep a side section for new questions. 
- Research your questions and actively look for answers.

2. Keep it simple

- Turn the list items into paragraphs.
- Simplify the content by removing extra words.
- Don't put multiple ideas in one sentence.
- Write for the lazy reader.
- Complexity covers mistakes. Write in plain and to-the-point style.

3. Iterate

- Re-read and note...
	- Gaps that can open new knowledge.
	- New questions that can either take over or motivate new writings.
	- Generality or novelty.
- Trim the content by re-focusing on the most important insight. 
- Create new docs for other ideas.

4. Review & Publish!

- Re-write your 1st sentence to capture the reader's curiosity.
- Don't over sell-or-optimize it.
- Ask for reviews.
- Publish!
