16. Top Takeaways

Top takeaways posts are blog posts where you write about your top takeaways from something, such as a book, podcast, conference, movie, or other items.

These posts allow you to both recommend resources to your readers and show them why you recommend them.

For example, let’s say you read a great biography about Steve Jobs:

● You could write a blog post entitled “9 Things I Learned From The Life Of Steve Jobs”.

● In this post, you would not only recommend the biography itself, but you would also highlight poignant lessons you learned while reading the book.

● You could talk about all the different ways that Steve Jobs inspired you to be a better person.

You’re providing a valuable resource to your readers by creating this sort of blog post. First, you’re introducing them to outstanding resources that can truly benefit their lives. This, in and of itself, is an excellent service. With so many resources to choose from, it can be hard to know where to get started.

But that’s not all. You’re also helping them learn important lessons from those resources that they might not learn otherwise.
