Before We Hand It All to AI… Let’s Write

30 Days of Original Thought (Before the Machines Take Over)

Hey Alchemist,

I'm kicking off another 30-day writing sprint.

This isn't a trend. It's a rhythm I always return to when I haven't been writing for a while.

Sometimes it's 14 days, sometimes 30. But it's always about one thing: keeping my mind sharp.

Because writing is thinking. And right now, with AI doing more of the heavy lifting, we need to make sure we're still lifting.

Here's the problem I'm seeing: Too many people are handing over their voice without even realizing it, or they're avoiding AI entirely. Both approaches miss the point.

This sprint isn't about avoiding AI. It's about using it to get clearer, not lazier. We write to stay sharp. We write to stay ourselves.

So here is what I am doing in the next 30 days …

I'll be sharing one short-to-medium-sized post every day. Sometimes personal, sometimes tactical, sometimes experimental. Always with intention.

And if you're writing alongside me whether one post or all thirty here's what I recommend:

• Don't try to go viral. Try to go honest.

• Don't overwrite. Keep it clear. Keep it human.

• Don't burn yourself out. Pick a time you can actually show up for morning, lunch, late night. Keep showing up at that time. That's how you build muscle without breaking it.

People are overloaded. Don't flood their inbox or their feed.

Say something real and then stop.

Because that's what we're really after here: original thought in an age of automated noise. Not perfection. Just our own voice cutting through all the sameness.

So if you're in, write with me. No pressure. No gimmicks. Just clarity, rhythm, and a chance to think out loud for 30 days.

Drop a comment and let me know if you're joining the sprint. Even if it's just for a few days.

Let's write like it matters. Because it still does.

Tomorrow I'll show you how to come up with 30 days worth of ideas. Until tomorrow, be kind to others and be kind to yourself.
