Belief-Series Kickoff
Kickoff of a series about your 5-7 core business convictions.
Last updated: July 2026 · Collective Brain
The prompt
Write the kickoff post of a LinkedIn series about my core business convictions.
My [N] convictions:
1. [CONVICTION 1]
2. [CONVICTION 2]
3. [CONVICTION 3]
4. [CONVICTION 4]
5. [CONVICTION 5]
Kickoff post structure:
1. Hook (2 lines): Why this series now? What made you want to write it?
2. Self-context (3 lines): A brief framing of who you are and why your view should be taken seriously. Without a resume.
3. The [N] convictions (1 line each): Listed, each as a concise claim. State them here, do not elaborate.
4. Series ground rules (2-3 lines): How often, at what cadence, where readers can push back.
5. Invitation (1 line): "Which one makes you most want to disagree?"
Then: Write directly underneath a draft for the first follow-up post (conviction no. 1 elaborated in 200 words), including its own standalone hook.
Tone: Confident, but inviting. No manifesto language. Replace the bracketed placeholders with your own details.
