The Writing Framework That Actually Made Me Consistent

Online writing, or creative writing in general, can be difficult at times—especially for someone just starting out.

We often find ourselves stuck on structuring, choosing the right words, or looking for a good idea to build off of.

And for the past 2-years of writing content, I've struggled with the same thing.

Within these 2-years, I've never been consistent with writing content because I'd always get demotivated after I experienced a writer's block.

That's why for the past month, I've been curating a system that allowed me to streamline my writing to make it as simple as possible while still relaying a meaningful message to you.

Here is the writing formula that allowed me to upload 15 blog posts within the past 15 days:

T - Topic

Pick 1 simple idea or moment that caught your attention this week.

Examples:

• "I realized I've been avoiding hard conversations"

• I noticed I get way more done when I'm sleep-deprived—but why?"

• "Taking cold showers changed my mood more than caffeine."

S - Story/Solution

Start with a relatable moment or confession. Make it personal, like you're texting a friend.

• "Most people wait for the shower to get warm. I do the opposite."

• "I used to think journaling was a waste of time."

• "I caught myself doomscrolling at 1 a.m. again."

I - Insight

Break down the meaning behind the moment. Ask why it matters or what it reveals. This is your reflection. It's what makes your post stick.

• "We don't fear discomfort—we fear facing our own thoughts."

• "Our attention is our most valuable currency, and we're giving it away."

P - Practical Takeaway or Punchline

End with a punch. Something the reader can chew on, try, or feel. This could be a call to action, a hard truth, or a shift in mindset.

• "Try sitting in silence before reaching for your phone tomorrow."

• "Write the hard thing. It might be the truest thing you've ever said."

Final Thoughts

These are just rough building blocks that you could use to write your next, or even first, piece of content.

Use this framework to layout the foundation, and continue to build upon your ideas until you construct a building you're satisfied with.

Once you're done, hit that publish button, and keep refining your own system.

Being a content creator isn't just about effective writing, it's about effective systemizing.
