In the last 60 days, I've helped 253 people build an online writing habit.

Here are 10 lessons they've taught me in behavior change, human psychology, and writing online.

THREAD...👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼
1. Start smaller

The foundation of Ship 30 for 30 is the Atomic Essay.

• One idea
• Under 200 words
• Fits in one iPhone screenshot

This eliminates any friction to publishing ideas online.

And without that friction, momentum is inevitable.
2. Constraints create freedom

"Write something every day" is hard.

There are too many choices to make.

"Publish a 200-word essay with a 30-minute time limit every day for 30 days."

This is easier.

Within these constraints, creativity thrives.

People overcomplicate Twitter growth.

Instead, stick with first principles.

You need:

• People to visit your profile
• People to follow you when they visit
• People to stay following once they follow you

That's the "what."

But what about the how? 🧵👇🏼
1/ People to visit your profile

This one is simple.

To get more profile visits, your tweets must show up on more than just your followers' timelines.

To do this, write engaging tweets.

• Ask questions that generate replies
• Optimize your tweets for likes and retweets
2/ People to follow you when they visit

Again, this one is simple.

Your bio + pinned tweet should articulate the value you provide (see mine for an example.)

• First line: "I tweet about X"

• Pinned tweet: Create a "start here" to let the visitor find your best stuff.

Goodhart’s Law...

One framework that once you see, you can't unsee.

When a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure.

When setting goals, choose your indicator wisely.

Here’s a primer on Goodhart’s Law (and how to avoid it):

🧵👇🏼
1/

The story of Goodhart’s Law starts in colonial India.

Faced with an infestation of snakes, government officials created a bounty for dead cobras.

A few months in, the program was working. Dead snakes were brought in left and right.
2/

But it didn’t end well.

Some savvy entrepreneurs developed a scheme:

Breed cobras, kill them, then turn them in for the reward.

Frustrated with these troublemakers, the government removed the bounty.

Stuck with worthless snakes, the breeders let them go into the wild.

2020... what a year.

I just put the finishing touches on my Annual Review.

Here are 30 lessons I learned about myself and the world across five areas:

• Health
• Wealth
• Relationships
• Online creativity
• Personal operations

🧵👇🏼
Feel free to treat each of these as standalone tweets and comment on the lessons that resonate most heavily with you.
HEALTH

1. Health starts with removal, not addition.

This year I officially hit 100 lbs lost. And looking back, it wasn't what I started doing, but what I stopped doing that got me there.

Fewer carbs, fewer beers, fewer hours sitting, these things add up.

Spending some of the holiday quiet time auditing my personal operating system.

Starting with the first principles:

• Leverage
• Efficiency
• Focus
• Constraint
• Simplicity
1/ Leverage

I have two finite resources: time and energy.

I want to direct these finite resources towards infinite assets.

The more effectively I store these, the quicker they compound.
2/ Efficiency

I can’t spend all my time and energy on high-leverage work.

So with everything low-leverage, I want to be as efficient as possible.

This means:

• Automating
• Delegating
• Creating SOPs
• Batching

This frees up time and energy for high-leverage work.
