I used to believe the more I put into a post, the more valuable it was. Ten tips instead of three. Extra steps. Bonus resources.

The result? Silence. People didn’t finish reading, didn’t reply, didn’t click.

I eventually realized the problem wasn’t effort—it was overload. When your content tries to do too much, it loses people.

This week, pick one point. That’s it. Say it clearly, then stop. The rest can wait for another post.
