How to Produce Content?

Once you stop browsing, you’ll start doing something else. Trust me, I used to use HN and other social media quite a lot, and I always felt like I didn’t have enough time to do what I wanted to do.

Once that Apple screen time thing started popping up I saw why, I was spending 2-3 hours a day on my phone. So I stopped doing that. My phone now lives in a specific place in my house and only use it for communication, or you know, when I’m hiding from my family on the bathroom throne. But you’ll be amazed how much you start producing, or doing, when you stop consuming.

HN has a search function. I searched the obvious phrase "creating content": https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que.... You can start there and if you still don't find what you need then ask a more focused question.

If you browse so much you can start by curating content. Something like: 10 best articles on influencer marketing - a link and short intro to each of them and you have a piece of content of your own. Curating valuable content is many times as good as creating it.

Blogging is the easiest way to get started making content. Every time you learn something new, write a blog post explaining what you learned.

The OP is awfully ironic. The answer, I think, is read more books and less posts. So yes, there is a book on being a better thinker.

Pick one.

Read the book “Everybody Writes.”
