Can’t Think of What to Write? Try This Before Turning to ChatGPT

When you need to create content and can't think of anything, what do you do?

Most people these days turn to ChatGPT. 

I guess that's okay, but I want you to know that AI is not the only option. 

And this option, the one I'm about to share with you, results in original content that's 100% unique to you. 

If that's something you value, try this out. 

In a nutshell, it’s a brain warmup.

You see, your brain is a muscle.

Well, it isn’t literally a muscle, but it works a lot like one.

The more you challenge it by problem-solving, the stronger it gets.

So what I'm about to teach you is akin to stretching and light cardio for your brain. 

It's a simple mental exercise that warms up your mind, and most days, it's just enough to get you going.

Okay, so here’s what you're going to do.

It's really easy. 

Write down every single problem of why you cannot write.

Like this:

  • The problem is thinking of what to write everyday.
  • The problem is feeling inspired enough to write something interesting.
  • The problem is needing a certain type of environment to write well.
  • The problem is my kids interrupt flow state...multiple times.
  • The problem is, honestly, I just don’t feel like it.
  • The problem is that I’m on an airplane right now, and I’ve always had trouble focusing and working on a plane.
  • The problem is I want to watch Tom Cruise get killed over and over on Edge of Tomorrow.
  • The problem is my cute son wants a hug and a chat lol
  • The problem is that my other son is talking in his sweet voice about the airplane crashing (oh gawd).

And keep going.

For as long as it takes. 

And then, watch in awe as your brain starts to come up with things to write about!

Yes, that's it. 

For me, this works every time.

And once I start writing, I don't overthink it. I keep writing, sometimes editing along the way, and other times, I just do a big brain dump that I edit later. 

"But Cin, I've tried this, and it's not working!"
