What to do if you’re frustrated as hell at the blinking cursor

Published: Fri, 08/07/20

Many suns ago, James Altucher wrote an email about 30-day challenges.

It was quite an interesting list, too.

Although, there were a couple things on his list I’ll never do.

Like, for example, “live only in Airbnbs for 30 days.”

Even pre-COVID I’d rather have been *waterboarded* than stay in an Airbnb.

But, the list was overall thought-provoking. And one of the things he said is perfect for anyone who wants to get faster at creating content regardless of media/format, and able to pound that content out without struggling, squirming, or wriggling in your seat trying to think up ideas.

And, that idea was:

Write down 10 ideas a day for 30 days.

He equates it to exercising your idea muscles, like any other muscle.

And, yes, I completely agree.

In fact, I have been doing something similar — not as part of a challenge, but just as a result of having lots of ideas — for years. I have a folder on my hard drive with some 2,500+ various email ideas/subject lines/themes/offers. Plus, a 300+ page document full of Email Players issue ideas and fodder. And, I’m always adding to it. Whenever I am away from my computer and get an idea, I simply whip out my phone and email the idea to myself.

The result?

I don’t really worry about what to create content about.

I simply open the folder, take a gander, and pick whatever’s interesting.

Anyway, end of PSA.

Of course, ideas alone don’t equal sales.

The next step is knowing how to turn those ideas into content.

Thus, my book:

“Breakneck Content”

It’s pricey, especially if you are one of these prole-minded types pretending to be business people that think in terms of expenses instead of investments when it comes to ongoing business education you can profit from. And it’s for people who have the attention span to read a short book, broken down into quick “bites” of quick-implementation action tips that average less than 250 words each. Amusingly, most people don’t have even that attention span, which is why there’s no real “competition” out there for my boys & ghouls who use my content creation methods.

This content was originally featured in the July 2019 Email Players issue.

(So if you have that issue, no need to buy this.)

And it is packed with ways to create content, including:

* Emails
* Social media posts
* Books (non-fiction or fiction)
* Courses
* Videos
* Podcasts
* Articles & blogs
* Newsletters
* Membership site content
* Premiums & bonuses
* And any other kind of content you might sell or sell with

This baby is a very short, fast read.

It's also on sale for 30% off until Sunday 8/9 at midnight EDT.

P.S. This book is very small, very short, and very expensive.

If you judge information by weight & volume then it’ll be a gigantic waste of money for you. It’s simple, “meat & potatoes” info I’ve used to pump out enormous amounts of content quickly over the last couple years. However, it requires both thinking & ambition to use. And if you need hand-holding & coddling then you should probably pass on buying it.
