How Overcoming Writer’s Block Can Put You In The Spotlight As A Thought Leader In Your Industry
Hey… you know content marketing and writing is big — right?
Don’t you sometimes think to yourself:
How are these content marketers writing so much and getting all that amazing content out there?
Just being able to write could open so many doors. You will be able to articulate problems and solutions better. Writing can help you put yourself into the spotlight as the thought leader in your industry.
So how can you do this? Well, the key to writing is to just start writing and to keep going. To be a writer, you just have to write. Then, later, you edit.
That’s why I’ve teamed up with my good friend Mike Gurevich who created ilys.
ilys is an amazing tool to help you unleash your creative mind and overcome writer's block.
Let me show you how easy it is to use.
First, log into ilys (it’s free to try)
Next, create a new session:
You’ll see a word count goal. Set the target number of words you want to write:
Then start typing and just keep going, watching your creative mind start to flow with inspiration and enthusiasm:
No distractions! Nothing for your editing mind to latch on to.
Continue to write, write and write.
If you absolutely need to see what you are writing, you can click on the “Peek” button that looks like an eye. If you haven’t reached your word count goal, you will not be able to edit, only to peek. You can edit only after you’ve reached your goal. Although you can peek, we recommend you just keep typing and don’t allow yourself to be distracted by anything. For a more complete distraction-free experience, try Ninja Mode, by clicking on the switch found in the lower-left corner of the screen. With Ninja Mode, you won’t see anything on the screen as you type. It’s genius!
This is the genius part of ilys.
ilys puts to sleep your editing mind and optimises your creative mind.
Continue to write, write and write.
BAM!
You end up with an amazing piece of content (which you didn't even know you had in you).
You’ll see an inspiring green tick in ilys to acknowledge your achievement.
Next, save your new story
Download your outstanding piece of content. Only now, start to edit your writing.
