Principles for writing

1. Don’t look for ideas or a great writing session while being connected to the internet. Disconnected is your default, connection is only a tool to post/schedule ideas.
2. Empty pockets lead to great ideas, which lead to great writing. Your empire is literally being built while putting your clothes in your closet.
3. No one feels like writing every day. Even Olympic athletes hate working out. Yet the only way is doing.
4. Write from your heart. If you are writing something “because it would look good while it does not click with your heart”, it is never going to result in great art.
5. The only shortcut is not aiming for shortcuts. But it takes several failed shortcuts to truly internalise this.
