Most people treat their social media feeds as a chance to check out of life for a while. But hiding in those dopamine-inducing screens can be some of your juiciest insights as a creator.

For instance, today while casually scrolling through my Twitter feed I had three separate pretty powerful & thought-provoking insights come up.

→ Something practical I want to implement
→ Something that was connected a content idea that’s brewing
→ Something deeply personal that I want to explore further through journaling & writing.

And it’s not unusual for me to get these kind of insights daily from my Twitter or other social media feeds. In fact, I get more insights from Twitter these days than I do from books or articles.

If you’re not getting insights like this regularly from your Twitter feed you’re either:

  • Following the wrong people
  • Not sure how to take notice of sparks & insights
