10 words

Always start with the best 10 words to get someone intrigued.

I read this today. We write lots of words, but people scan for things that catch their interest so that they read on.

There isn’t a right or wrong answer to how long your message should be, the only thing that counts is to write something genuine. Our words aren’t for everyone, but if we play games and manipulate to get attention, you’ll have to keep playing games to keep people looking. Long term it doesn’t work as the readers work it out and move on.

10 words that are authentically us is better than 10 words to get noticed.

Information

We crave it, it’s everywhere, page upon page, link after link…billions and trillions of web pages brimming with it.

How does it enrich our lives? What do we do with it all? How did we survive without it? What did we do with all the time before we spent it consuming information?

What is now hidden in plain sight in this information overload?

So much of it, what really is the truth?
