So, how to write faster?

One of the most popular excuses for not writing is not having the time.

I get it. I’m self-employed and I still can’t find time to do half the stuff I want to every week.

If you added marriage, kids, and a regular 9–5 to that mix, I’d be toast. I’d never have any time to write anything.

When I first got started writing about 3 years ago, I had the same problem. I couldn’t find the time to write 9-minute bangers like Benjamin Hardy, Ph.D. after freelancing all day, so I improvised.

My solution?

Write short.

Write 300-Word Blog Posts

Cap it at 300 words.

That’s how to write faster.

I understand that longer-form blog posts are all the rage these days, but I do think that 300 words still hold immense value. I used to write these blog posts on Medium (and still do these days).

It‘ll Make You A Better Writer

There’s a whole lot of rambling on the internet already. If I wanted more rambling, I’d spend all my time on Facebook.
