Overwhelmed

Mastering others is strength. Mastering oneself makes you fearless. -- Lao Tzu

Writing this here to clear my head a little bit because to honest with you I’m overwhelmed.

Content creation, as simple as it may sound, there is literally so much work involved with it.

Fuck man, I really wish I had stayed consistent. There’s no time to complain or mope about it though. Fuck it, we suck it up and move on.

It’s overwhelming and a lot because it’s like, if I’m going to do this, then I should do that too.

So let me break it down here, I’m creating content to share my journey as an entrepreneur in the digital age.

I want to add value.

I want to share mindset, motivation.

I want to break down steps for someone who wants to learn more and work on their own personal development.

I’ll share stories and examples.

Essentially, it almost sounds like I want to write a whole book. At this point, I’m also really trying hard to make it simple and duplicatable for the next person to learn too.

So okay, sure.

It seems what would make the most sense is to break it down via topics, or chapters. And within those topics, will be the stories and examples.

- Topics being long form content.

- Stories and examples being short form content. Essentially, this will be a broken down version of the long form.

Great, so now I know what I need to work on: planning out the possible topics/chapters, and adding bullet points to it (stories/examples).

Written and video. Readers and viewers.

Remember, no one said it was going to be easy. Alright, let’s chop it up.

ZYVR’S BOOK

- CHAPTERS/TOPICS (written blog/long form video)

- STORIES/EXAMPLES (static image post/short form video)

Examples of long form content:

- Write a Blog

- Copy/paste on Substack

- Copy/paste on LinkedIn

- Record a YT video

- Write a Thread

- Twitter

- Threads

Examples of short form content:

- Post an image on IG, FB, LinkedIn

- Post the written version on Twitter

- Record a TikTok, IG Reels, YT Shorts

As you can see, despite arguably missing a lot here, there’s already a bunch of tasks to complete. True, there’s also a lot we can jumble together. And I’m still working on creating some sort of checklist or kanban board to allow for an efficient workflow of tackling each one. Shit, honestly this blog wouldn’t be the best place to showcase it either so let me follow back up regarding this later. (Do I smell my first product?! Muahaha)

I kid, but not really either (haha), this is definitely something that I’ll have to test out myself to make sure it’s even worth sharing.

Anyway, won’t lie, this had me fucked up for a couple hours but I been working hard at the process of it all. The ultimate accomplishment would be to make this huge ass hustle we call content creation less stressful to tackle.

Now imagine we could get to a point where all this shit is automated thanks to AI.

Hmm…
