How a bad idea won

Today I started making a TikTok video. My great idea was to record myself implementing a new feature of my app and show the highlights on 2x speed. Maybe I could have made that work/made it interesting. I don’t know.

The problem was that 1 hour went by and I wasn’t even 50% done. I looked at the clock and it was getting close to my regular sleep time. My back was getting sore. But I wasn’t going to give up on my goal—to post every week day until I get my first 100 followers.

I had limited time so I pulled up an idea I had earlier in the week that I didn’t think was very good, but it was one I knew I could record and post it before it got too late.

Surprisingly, it’s my 3rd most watched video.

It’s not much, but it feels like a win to start building this muscle of writing my ideas in advance and staying consistent.

What are some content ideas you have that you think aren’t good?
