  70. <p>There are 2 things I have come to believe about writing:</p>
  71. <ol><li><strong>The average person should write 5x more things than they do.</strong></li><li><strong>The average written thing should be 5x shorter than it is.</strong></li></ol>
  72. <p>See? Write 5x more but write 5x less. Write more often, but make each thing you write shorter. </p>
  73. <p>I don’t care what it is. Blog posts. Novels. Google docs. Articles. Wiki pages. Write more of them, but make them shorter. </p>
  74. <p>Why write more often? </p>
  75. <ul><li>Because writing helps thinking. </li><li>Because practice will make you better. </li><li>Because writing is more shareable than speaking.</li><li>Because humans are worse than computers at storing knowledge.</li><li>Because writing your old thoughts frees your brain to think of new thoughts.</li></ul>
  76. <p>Why make them shorter?</p>
  77. <ul><li>Because the shorter it is, the more people will read it.</li><li>Because of the <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pareto_principle">Pareto principle</a>: 80% of the value is in 20% of the length (hence “5x shorter”).</li></ul>
  78. <p>So write more, but write less.</p>
