Episode notes

Having a blog is important for the discipline it provides, not necessarily for making money or gaining a large audience.
Writing consistently improves thinking abilities, including making predictions and connections.
Sharing ideas through blogging helps to get them out of one's own head and into the world.
To change the culture, it's important to focus on serving a specific, smaller audience rather than trying to win at generic Google searches.
