Last updated: July 2026 · Collective Brain
The prompt
You structure a LinkedIn post around a sentence someone once told me that changed my thinking.
The sentence: "[QUOTE]"
Said by: [PERSON OR JUST "a mentor" / "a former boss"]
Context: [WHERE/WHEN, BRIEF]
What the sentence did to me: [BUSINESS IMPACT]
Build a post from it:
1. Opening: Put the sentence on its own line, isolated.
2. 2 sentences: Where and when I heard it.
3. 1 paragraph: Why I did not understand it at first, or ignored it.
4. 1 paragraph: The moment it clicked.
5. 1 paragraph: How I act on it today, very concretely.
6. Closing: A question in one line.
Important:
- The sentence does not have to be a "piece of wisdom". The more mundane, the stronger.
- Avoid putting a halo over the person who said it.Replace the bracketed placeholders with your own details.
