Most of my ideas come from reading. So whenever I read something that invokes an idea, I take time to jot it down. I do that whatever is handy – my phone, a notebook, or even a piece of paper.

There is no point in taking notes when you can’t find them when you need them. Twice a week, I transfer them to the Idea Journal in my Personal Knowledge Management System (I will share more about my PKMS later).

When the time comes to write a LinkedIn post, I pick one idea and elaborate it by hand. Writing by hand allows me to access the parts of the brain that typing can’t. I always come up with better ideas when writing on a paper rather than a screen.

I pick the main idea of the post and create an image using it as a quote. I only started doing it recently and found it really useful in highlighting the main point and branding my posts.

Rather than hitting published when I am done, I schedule my posts when I am going to be available to answer comments. LinkedIn now has the ability to schedule posts which I find very handy.
