8 rules in this template
- 02
Make a daily 'ugly draft'.
Output is training. Give yourself permission to be mediocre on the way to being good.
practicewritinghabits - 03
Collect inputs intentionally.
Save only what you can remix. Turn bookmarks into notes, and notes into work.
notessystemscreativity - 04
Protect your taste.
Follow your curiosity more than trends. Your taste is the compass that makes your work distinct.

Constraints create style.
Pick a format, length, or theme. Constraints reduce paralysis and increase coherence.

Edit in a separate session.
Draft fast, edit later. Mixing modes kills momentum.
writingfocussystems - 07
Don't refresh metrics during creation.
Creation is sacred time. Metrics can wait until you're done.
focusmindsetpublishing - 08
Build a backlog of small ideas.
Tiny seeds become big work. Capture headlines, hooks, and questions as they appear.
