How To Write About Anything

This one simple trick will empower you to write about anything with confidence and ease.

I could easily turn this into a product and charge you for it, but to be honest, I just can’t be bothered.

So I am going to give it to you in 4 words.

If you want to write about anything – turn it into a question.

That simple.

And it works every time.

Why?

Because our brain is geared towards answering questions.

When someone asks us a question, we often intuitively begin forming an answer and blurt it out even before we realize it.

Did you notice that I just asked a question (“Why does asking questions work every time?”) and provided the answer?

I have been using this technique for a long time and can vouch for its effectiveness.

When you turn a topic into a question, your brain starts working on answering it.

If you do not know the answer, you can start researching to come up with interesting ideas and a different perspective. This will provide you with material for writing.

Here is a set of questions, see how your brain is already forming answers:

  • How to beat perfectionism?
  • What mistakes do new writers make and how to avoid them?
  • What challenges do creators face every day and how can they solve them?

My approach is to first rely on my existing knowledge and then conduct research. This way, I don’t lose my unique perspective on the topic.

So I direct the questions to myself.

  • How can I beat perfectionism?
  • What mistakes I made when I was new to writing and how to avoid them?
  • What challenges do I face every day, and how to solve them?

Then I research to see what others are saying about it.

Once I have a better understanding of the topic, I rewrite my response, incorporating the new information I have acquired.

Try it.

You will love the technique.
