Business-Building Action from Terry Brock
If you create content for your social media work, your blog, or other areas of promotion, you'll want to see this handy way I, and many others, get some wonderful ideas. This is a little trick that I use to see a lot of great ideas for one source and then combine it with other ideas.
I got this ideal from fellow Steemian, and friend. @lesliestarrohara. She wrote a great post about how she gets ideas as a writer. Well, I enthusiastically agree with her and wanted to expand on one of her ideas (you'll see it in the video). In this video I share my screen with you from both my computer and my iPad so you see exactly, step-by-step how you can use this trick to get ideas for your next Steemit post, video, blog post, or other content. Couple this with lots of books (hence the Kindle graphic you see above) and you'll see the power.
This gives us the ability to retain the "best of the best" when we read something.
Watch this video and then share it with others. I'll look forward to getting your input and thoughts.
All the best,
Terry

Terry, some great tips and you reminded me to put Jim's book on my reading list. I too use the hi-lighter in kindle & iBooks. Right now I'm using a writing app called Scrivener and learning to dictate for my projects. Keep up the great work!

Thank you for mentioning that, tomtrial. I've heard of Scrivener and it has been recommended by some authors that I admire. How has it helped you?
Thank you for mentioning ditation. I use it extensively in my work as a journalist. I find that it is ideal particuarly for the first, rough draft. I like the way it increases my speed of getting thoughts to screen.
In fact, it might be good to have a post here on Steemit on that. Thank you for the idea. Hope you have a great day and I look forward to hearing more from you.

@terrybrock you should give a speach at #steemfest2 I would love to listen to you from up close again.

Thank you, skapaneas. You are most kind. Yes, it would be good to speak at Steemfest in Lisbon. I would like to share some ways that my fellow Steemians can succeed in not only Steemit but in business and life today. Perhaps this will happen.
Hope you have a very good day today. We're in 4th of July here in the US and it is a celebration day of our Independence. I like to think of each individual acheiving his or her own independence to do what they want. This is what life is about, achieving your own goals and becoming exactly what you want to be.
Always good to hear from you, my friend. So glad we had a chance to meet when I was over in Greece. All the best!

Glad you liked it, Starr. Yes, you were the inspiration for this video. Thank you!
When you mentioned reading books as a source for ideas, it triggered my thinking. With those highlights and sending them to yourself, you have the tool to get the essence of the best of the book. That is usually very good for triggering some thoughts for content creation.
Always nice to hear from you, Starr. Hope you have a good 4th of July ahead however you choose to celebrate. Gina and I are going to be very productive, getting work done, and get some good relaxing & chilling in as well.
Cheers to you!
