Opinionated Wizards

Creating engaging social media content isn't easy.

Back when I was building my personal brand, I was really active on social. My content was the magic that helped me connect with my audience.

But it was a struggle to stay consistent. On some days, I had no creative inspiration but felt pressured to post.

To keep things going, I turned to content generation tools and hopped on the latest trends.

I thought that it would keep my social feeds fresh and give me never-ending inspiration.

But instead, I found that these tactics got old quickly.

The new posts were too generic and my engagement dropped.

It reminded me that authenticity is the magic ingredient. Rather than relying on trends, I developed a unique creative process that kept my content interesting.

Invisible Cities explores the imagination and individuality of the human mind.

🤖 The gist by ChatGPT: Invisible Cities is a novel by Italo Calvino that explores the imaginary conversations between Marco Polo and the emperor Kublai Khan. The book is divided into nine chapters, each describing a different city that Polo claims to have visited. The descriptions of the cities are poetic and surreal, and often blur the line between reality and fantasy. Throughout the book, themes of memory, imagination, and perception are explored, as well as the relationship between the individual and the collective. Invisible Cities is a thought-provoking and imaginative work that encourages readers to question their understanding of the world around them.
