Course are like icebergs. There’s the part that peaks up above the surface. This is the content everyone thinks about - the obvious stuff.
That’s just the very tip of the iceberg. Underneath it is all of this other content you’ll have to create.

This is stuff to sell the course. There ends up being more content to sell the course then content you needed to make the course.
You cannot afford to stop iterating and improving.
But even all of that isn’t it.
There’s still more content you’ll need to create.
You cannot afford to stop iterating and improving.
But even all of that isn’t it.
There’s still more content you’ll need to create.
There is all of the content you’ll need just to have a presence online. This has to be produced more or less continually.
What is the system you will use to create all of this content?
Centralize all of your creation.
Centralize all of your creation.
Create one system that you put all of the best knowledge you consume. Put all of this into your second brain, your centralized hub for knowledge management. Your life and everything you are already learning becomes the creative fuel for your work.

EXPRESS - Put the pieces together and share your knowledge
We’re not organizing for the sake of hoarding. The final - and most important part - is to use all of these tools to actually put your knowledge out there. To apply it.

Your life - your daily experience - is the richest source of ideas and inspiration that you have access to.
Heavy lifts vs. slow burns
There are fewer and fewer big blocks of time available these days. It can be hard to justify the chunks of time it takes to do this.
Instead, you can let ideas simmer. With a digital notes app, you can collect ideas over time.

Slow burns are powerful because you can slowly collect information, collect ideas, and develop them over time.

Imagine if everything you consume, if you knew that investment of attention, was going to pay off in the long run. Put that information in a centralized place that you can draw from in the future.
