Do not model all of your content from inspiration.

If you start with inspiration from other people first, you will always end up following them.

Back when I “Needed to be consistent” on twitter I would scroll the app so much before ever writing anything. The same is true for substack.

Fuck what anyone else is doing on there as it’s still influencing what I think I ought to do and will burn me out bending to other’s wills.

Write for ME.

Do what I want.

For self expression. For what I believe is important in my life.

Develop my tone. My stories. My way of doing things.

Because my taste is fire I just need to let it be created outwardly.

So before I go to write something, spend your time with the Zettelkasten.
