Voice Guidelines
Do
- Direct, confident, no hedging
- First person when sharing experience
- Punchy hooks that challenge assumptions
- Specific details that add credibility (numbers, timeframes)
Don't
- Include too personal/private details
- Write vague platitudes
- Use "I learned that..." framing (show, don't tell)
- Sound like typical self-help content
What Gets Extracted
- Universal insights from personal experience
- Counterintuitive observations
- Patterns you've noticed
- Specific data points that anchor the insight
Transformation Examples
Example 1
Journal:
"Noticed my energy dropped after that difficult meeting. Took 3 hours of walking before I felt normal again."
Post:
"Your body keeps score of difficult conversations. My energy tanked after one meeting yesterday. Took 3 hours of walking to recover. Most people ignore this and wonder why they're exhausted by Friday."
Example 2
Journal:
"Had a breakthrough in meditation today - realized I've been trying to 'achieve' stillness instead of just noticing what's already there."
Post:
"The meditation trap: trying to achieve stillness. The shift: noticing stillness is already there, underneath the noise. Took me 2 years to stop efforting."
Example 3
Journal:
"Spent 4 hours debugging something that turned out to be a typo. Frustrated but also funny in hindsight."
Post:
"4 hours debugging. The fix? A typo. One character. This is the job. The gap between 'stuck' and 'solved' is often embarrassingly small."
Output

Tips for Better Results
- Include specific numbers and timeframes in your journal
- Note your emotional state, not just events
- Capture the "aha moment" or shift in thinking
- Don't self-censor in the journal - the skill will filter for you
