Steem School EP 15 - How to Get Excellent Ideas for Videos, Posts, Podcasts, Interviews & More

Gathering ideas for posts, videos, podcasts, interviews or others things can sometimes be a hard thing to do.

Maybe you went through all ideas already because you worked through your latest 100 ideas in 100 days and said or wrote everything about the topic.

That happens to everyone and I am no exception, I have the next 15 SteemSchool episodes written down but I will have to think about the next episodes soon or I get new ideas over time.

I am gonna share with you guys how I gather new ideas when I am out of ideas.

1. Nature

We are a part of nature and the city is an unnatural habitat as it was created by men.

Nature existed way before us and going back to the roots is something that everyone should do on a weekly basis.

There one will find energy, inspiration and a connection with his/her ancestors. See the things in nature not as something you can create something out of or just as material.

The things and beings you see there (thousands of beings smaller and bigger than you) live their own life or have their very own story.

With that mindset you open your mind again, you become aware. That is a great way to unlock your brain.

Look for a place to sit down, on a tree stump (get a towel with you so you can sit on nature without getting dirty).

Sit at a creek at the beach or wherever you like it, however, there must be a place with not many people around.

If you live in a big city I suggest going to the park and leaving the damn city asap, it rots your brain and soul.

Now get your notepad and pen out and start thinking. Remember that you can write about everything here on Steemit, if you write about a certain topic you will think about that instead.

If for example currently write SteemSchool episodes. What I will think about is my whole Steem journey so far (reflecting what happened so far). By doing that as detailed as possible thousands of ideas will flow to me.

Sit in that place, reflect on what happened so far and think about the future as well. You will get many ideas and you will write them all down.

 

Method 2: The Lazy Guy Method

The easiest way to get ideas (the lazy guy method) is to ask everyone around you what you should write about.

Doesn't always work but here and there you get some good ideas depending on who you ask and where.

I can just ask the Berserkers and get a couple of good ideas from them.

Method 3: Time & Skills

Think about everything that you do in your day and think about what you are good at and what you do.

If you just sit on a couch 30 minutes every day lamenting that your life ain't nice then I highly suggest you improve your life.

However, you can also just as well write about it, some Steemians here probably have very good ideas on how to improve your life.

The next thing to think about are your skills (what you are good at). Write them all down, sort them, organize them & give them descriptions. Write it down as detailed as possible, what is required to learn to do it? What is hard to learn? When is the best time to do it?

And after doing that you will have tons of things you can write about, because if you are good at that skill you will also record great videos about it.

Like a resumê, write your skills down, who are you? What are your goals?
