Every book, every article, every course starts from just one building block:

An Atomic Idea ⚛️

Here's how I take those atomic ideas and turn them into a rich content ecosystem👇
Everything Starts As An Atomic Ideas ⚛️
A spark ⚡️A word. A feeling. A hunch. You're not quite sure where it came from or how you might use it, but you know it's something.
Become Obsessed With Writing These Spark Ideas Down:
👉 Scribble them in a notebook
👉 Transcribe them as you're walking
👉 Throw them into a digital note-taking tool
Atomic Notes Become Atomic Tweets 🐦
Atomic ideas are perfect for tweets. Test these initial ideas out on the Twitter stream. You'll quickly be able to see what sparks with others.

Then you can start to combine these best spark ideas into molecules.
Atomic Ideas Form Together Into Molecular Ideas ✱
As you get feedback on your atomic ideas, you'll start to see clusters form together.

Refine them, expand on them and work them together into essays and threads that you can test again in the flow of Twitter.
Molecules join to form Organisms 🌱
Once you start forming atoms and molecules together you realise that atomic ideas can be formed into EVERYTHING:

👉Articles
👉Books
👉Courses
👉Workshops
👉Products
👉More tweets
Create Your Ecosystem 🌈
Before you know it all those random atomic ideas have formed into an ecosystem of atoms, molecules & organisms working in perfect balance with each other.

And it all started from that one tiny atomic idea
And the great thing about thinking atomic thoughts is that they actually become modular. You can mix and max any together to form wildly different clusters.

All those books, articles, courses & products start from one thing:
👉 An Atomic Idea ⚡️
👉 Atomic Ideas make great tweets
👉 Atomic Ideas form together to make molecular ideas - threads & essays
👉 And quickly your content ecosystem starts to build

Writers are always desperate for critical writing feedback.

But no amount of mastering the craft of writing will make up for poor ideas. What you need instead is feedback on your thoughts & ideas.

Here's how to use Twitter to get critical thought feedback 👇🧵
A huge benefit of writing online in a place like Twitter is the intersections of minds that you are exposed to

Every thought you put out has the potential to be seen by countless others. They add their thoughts, ask questions, engage in conversations and the flywheel turns
Consider Twitter your Writing Lab 🧪
As thoughts bubble up from your thinking and note-taking let them bubble up onto Twitter and expose them to the thought collective in the form of tweets, threads or essays.

Then let the experiment begin 👇

I used to spend 3 hours on a Sunday doing my weekly review like the diligent GTD girl that I am.

I HATED IT. And I skipped most weeks.

Now I take 20 minutes on a Friday afternoon & enjoy my weekends. Here's how 👇🧵
Don't Let Things Pile Up
Every day I'm capturing ideas, notes & tasks. Most afternoons I'll do a quick sweep and get everything into the right place. Consider it like a mental tidy up.

Don't' leave things too long before dealing with them.
Wipe The Slate Clean
I don't roll unfinished tasks automatically into the next week. Every task goes back into the project pile

Because this weeks' priorities might not be next week's priorities. So every task goes into the draw again judged on its ROI, not on its past due date

2️⃣🎉0️⃣🎉0️⃣ Days Of Creating

When I pressed publish on day 1 I thought I was writing 30 essays in 30 days. I had no idea it would completely change my life.

I never imagined I would make it to 200 😱

But here we are with 200 lessons I learned in 200 days of shipping 👇
Before we get into the lessons, there are literally hundreds of friends I want to tag who have been PIVOTAL in this journey. But I shall spare you all the tweetstorm and just say if you're reading this THANK YOU for being here.

Now 200 lessons. Are you ready?
OK, I couldn't NOT shout out these two. I literally wouldn't be writing this if it wasn't for @dickiebush & @Nicolascole77

Endless gratitude 🙏 for the constant support and for the amazing ship30 community you've created.

OK. OK. Onwards to 200 shipping lessons 👇

People often confuse output with effort 🤷🏼‍♀️

Being a creator can be effortless if you find ways to increase your output without your effort. I believe we call that leverage.

Here's what a typical leveraged shipping day looks like for me 👇
First things first... ALWAYS BE BRAIN DUMPING
I am constantly throwing ideas into my ideas list. My only rule is I have to do a brain dump when I have the idea.

And stop sabotaging your ideas before they have a chance to fly. JUST.STOP.OVERTHINKING

It's 5pm.
I'm done.
All I can manage to do is order Uber Eats & pass out on the lounge watching Netflix by 8pm.

👆 This was me most days until I found a way to harness momentum energy

Now I build energy throughout the day rather than deplete it. Here's how 👇🧵
You can either live your days dragging through the wind or you can use the wind to your advantage and let it lift and push you along.

It's all comes down to intentional design 👇
Fuel Your Body
First of all if you are not looking after the basics, none of the following tools will work to increase energy.

Drink water, eat good food, take breaks, hug your doggos.

Creators who master showing up daily are winning against 95% of everyone else

Except showing up daily is hard

Here are 5 secrets I use to show up even on the shitty days 👇🧵
💪 Showing up is like building a muscle...

The more you show up 🙃
👇
the more you build the muscle
👇
& the more you build the muscle
👇
the easier it becomes to show up 🙂

Here's some of my best creative muscle building techniques 👇
Work A Little Overtime On Your Good Days
It's always easy to put in a little extra effort when the creative juices are flowing. On those days:

👉 Do an extra brain dump
👉 Write 10 extra ideas
👉 Research a topic you want to write about

Your future self will thank you later
