"When I'm writing something, if I have to stop and think about what I want to say then that tells me that I'm on the wrong track. I believe it should all just flow out of you onto the screen. You can always go back and edit it later"
I have so many 1/2 done posts because I come up with it and it doesn't flow anymore. I feel like I could prepare more ahead but when the feeling leaves, it leaves.
4500 characters? Really? Does it seriously have to be that long? I'll be honest, once I get to a certain point it because like Charlie Brown's teacher. No offense, it's not what you are writing, it's just the length. 2500 words would be PLENTY. I would like to absorb what you are writing and I like your style.
We've become a nation of skimmers, it's a proven fact.
Good news? You could split everything in 2 and do twice as well.
I guess you don't read books.
Also, I'm against the whole, "split it into two posts." No. I am looking for people who will read the entire thing. If it's not interesting to them, they are welcome to take their pick from 99.9% of the rest of the content on this site. I would rather have 2 people read the entire thing than make the posts shorter to accommodate people with fractured attention spans.
I definitely read books for enjoyment and entertainment. When it's about business, it's about absorbing it all before your next post. My head is FULL on a daily basis but I like what you are saying, this is no offense to you. I like you no bullshit style.
I did read the entire post. It's not about fractured attention span to me, if I feel like I can get just as much out of it with less, I always appreciate that. I would like to really understand one part of it before moving on. I'm not stupid, I own my own business and it's been 19 years of self employment. I've done a TON of self-teaching and learning. It was just a suggestion, not an insult.
I assume Minnows are the ones who need #sharkschool . You may be superhuman and it does pour out of you.
