There are only two steps involved:

  1. Learn
  2. Write what you’ve learned

It’s easy to dismiss this approach as ridiculously simple, but from personal experience, I know it works.

All you have to do is learn something and then explain the concept in your own way.

  • Read an interesting book? Write about it.
  • Watched a cool video? Write about it.
  • Picked up a new framework from an online course? Write about it.

(Of course, give credit where it’s due!)

This simple act of showing up and explaining a concept through your own lens not only helps your audience. It also helps you become a better thinker.
