Being helpful is more important than being original
9/10 The conclusion wraps it all up, summarizing your main points and leaving the reader with a clear call to action. It's the satisfying ending that ties up all the loose ends and leaves the audience feeling fulfilled.
8/10 Point 3 is your final and most compelling point, driving your message home. It's the climax of your content, where you deliver the knockout punch and leave a lasting impression.
7/10 Point 2 builds on the first point, adding depth and nuance. It's like a plot twist that keeps the audience guessing, ensuring they stay hooked and invested in your story.
6/10 Point 1 is the first pillar of your argument, backed by evidence or examples. It should be clear, concise, and captivating, drawing the reader deeper into your content.
5/10 Your introduction is the opening act, where you hook the reader and set the stage. It should be like a strong cup of coffee, waking up the reader and making them eager to consume more.
4/10 Think of this structure as a well-balanced meal. It has an appetizer (intro), main courses (points 1-3), and dessert (conclusion). Each part plays a crucial role in satisfying the audience's hunger for knowledge.
3/10 It's like a roadmap that leads them to your main points, keeping them engaged and interested. One classic framework is the 5-part structure: Introduction, Point 1, Point 2, Point 3, and Conclusion.
2/10 Without a solid framework, your ideas might end up scattered and confusing, like a jigsaw puzzle with missing pieces. A good framework guides your audience through your thoughts, ensuring they don't get lost along the way.
1/10 Want to create killer content that actually gets read, watched, or heard? It all starts with a strong framework. Think of it as the backbone of your content, providing structure and support.
8/ Final thought: The algorithm isn't your enemy. It's like a picky restaurant critic - it wants to serve the best stuff. Focus on making something worth serving.

1/🧵 Real talk about Instagram's algorithm - from someone who's probably spent too much time studying it. Here's what actually matters (and what's total BS)...
7/ And for the love of all things holy, use captions. Not everyone's watching with sound, and accessibility isn't just good karma - it's good for reach.
6/ Stop with the multiple calls-to-action. Seriously. Pick ONE thing you want people to do and make it count. Nobody's going to like, comment, share, follow, AND join your newsletter.
5/ The share button is your best friend. Had a reel go from dead to viral after ONE share. Why? Because shares tell Instagram "this is so good someone else needs to see it."
4/ Shorter reels tend to perform better - but not because they're short. They perform better because people actually finish watching them. Big difference. Don't just make short videos. Make watchable ones.
3/ Here's something wild: In my tests, changing scenes every 2-3 seconds nearly doubled retention rates. Yeah, it's a pain to film. But it works because our attention spans are basically shot.
2/ First up: View rate is everything. Not followers, not likes - it's about how much of your video people actually watch. Think about it: Instagram wants to show people stuff they'll finish watching.

9. So instead of asking “Will AI take my job?” ask “How can I use AI to make my work better?”

That’s the real mindset shift.

1/ Everyone’s worried about AI replacing humans. But that’s not how disruption works. Let’s talk about it. 👇
8/ The real danger isn’t AI taking over—it’s humans misusing it. Bias, misinformation, over-reliance—that’s the real problem.
7/ AI is a tool, not a threat. If it scares you, learn how to use it. If it excites you, find new ways to leverage it.
6/ The internet didn’t kill journalism. It changed how news is made. AI won’t kill creativity—it’ll change how we create.
5/ The first wave of AI won’t be replacing humans—it’ll be assisting them. The real winners? The people who know how to use AI effectively.
4/ We saw this with automation. Factories still have workers—they just use machines differently now. AI will do the same for knowledge work.
3/ AI isn’t eliminating work; it’s redefining it. Jobs won’t disappear overnight, but they will evolve.
2/ Every major technological leap has caused panic. The printing press, the steam engine, the internet—each one “threatened” jobs.
