A suggestion For More Effective Content Writing

I originally saw this suggestion on a guru website last year. I'm not meticulous at implementing the idea myself. Nevertheless, it works.

When we write, we should do just that, write (or type). We should not edit our work until after we have finished writing our post.

By editing during the writing stage, we are slowing down our process of creation. We lose our train of thought when we edit and delete during our writing process.
We are able to write our post much faster if we write without editing or deleting. When we've finished composing our post, we can then go back and start editing and deleting from the beginning.
Once we've done our first edit, we can go over our post, over and over, until we see no more mistakes. It usually takes me several goes of reading and re-reading, and editing and re-editing, before I see no more mistakes.
One More Tip
When typing, look only at the keyboard. Forget about the screen. Try not to look at the screen until you've finished writing your post and you're ready to edit it. Give it a go.
Keep These 3 Things In Mind (Sticking To The Above Guidelines)
a) Write your post
b) then, Edit what you have written
c) then, Post what you have written.
* Give it a go. It works.
