[The Reason You Aren't Being Read] What is the 'Curse of Knowledge' that every creator falls into?

What was your reason for discovering note?

• You came to look at product reviews
• You wanted to find high-quality manga even from amateurs
• You searched for a problem and hit upon the information you wanted

The reason I started reading articles on note was because I thought,[My lower back pain is so bad that I want to do pelvic correction without spending money]. I'm sure you also had a

reason (trigger) for discovering note. There are people sharing all kinds of information. I deepened my knowledge by looking at many articles. I was also a person on the reading side of note like that 😌



Now, let me ask you one more question.
What is the reason you became a creator (the giving side)?

Because you want to write product reviews?
Because you want to teach people how to lose 10kg through dieting?
Because you want to share information on beauty and health?
Because you found out you could earn money as a side hustle?

Everyone has their own reasons for sharing.

But, once you become a
creator (Giver) who makes articles, you become unable to create the information that the
information receiver (Taker)
side
truly wants to know.


Back when I was on the reading side of note, I must have had a trigger (reason) for wanting to read this, but for some reason, once you become the giving side, you become unable to create that trigger.


What happens if you can't create that trigger?


Your articles won't be reviewed.
Your paid notes won't be read.
Monetization becomes a dream within a dream...

You end up in that kind of state.


Why is this?


Actually, there is areason for this.



In fact, once you become a creator,

when you convey the knowledge and experience you have, you become unable to think about things from the perspective of someone who doesn't know.

That is why.


This state is called[The Curse of Knowledge].


The information giver and the receiver want different things!?
You might already be in a [Curse of Knowledge] state...


When you are compiling your experiences and expertise into an article,
are you thinking about the person who is seeing that article for the first time?

Impression rate,
CVR, CTR, engagement rate...

Aren't you lining up industry jargon like this?

The more knowledgeable a person is, the more they tend to use industry jargon or English terms that a beginner wouldn't understand, even when they intend to write clearly.

For example, let's say you are someone who posts about
【The ultimate diet method for busy women to lose 5kg every month】.

Suppose there is a woman who searches for
🔍【I want to know an easy way to lose weight】
.

This person found your article. She was interested in losing weight and encountered your article for the first time.

If the title and content she opened were

💬【Carbohydrate restriction is a no-go. Be mindful of muscle protein too!】

If it were an article like that, it would be so confusing to a beginner that they would think, "What is this person talking about?"


This woman who searched
wanted to know 【how to lose weight easily】.
Ultimately, she was just thinking 【What should I do today?】.


But you, the creator,

💁‍♀️"Carbohydrate restriction is essential. After that, let's be mindful of muscle protein."
🤷‍♀️"For dieting, first of all, PFC balance is..."
🙎‍♀️"First, please calculate your TDEE."


You have started talking about the essence of dieting, teaching theories that the reader did not ask for.


In other words, when you become a creator (giver),
you end up writing the knowledge you know into the article,
creating a gap with the trigger (reason) that the reader (taker) wanted to know.
That is what happens.

This gap is the 【Curse of Knowledge】.
In this state, because there is a gap between the creator and the reader, the number of reviews will stagnate, and it will become difficult to increase your 'like' rate or proceed with final monetization.

Has your content fallen victim to the curse of knowledge?


There is only one solution.
Please think about the reader's future.


I will be honest.

The curse of knowledge cannot be cured.

In the first place, humans are creatures that grow by acquiring knowledge. Because we naturally acquire knowledge, we tend to unconsciously use it when writing articles.


👤“So, is there really nothing we can do...?”


But there is one solution.


That is...


To create content while thinking about what kind of future the reader will be stepping into after reading it.that is what it means.


For example, if it were about dieting today,
first, instead of listing industry jargon,

“I was eating sweets due to the stress of my busy daily life, but just by switching to low-sugar alternatives, I lost 1kg in one week.”


If you say that,“Oh, I'll try that.”you can create a trigger for them to take action immediately.

People who become interested from there will become your fans and will continue to read more.
Knowledge like carbohydrate restriction can only have meaning at that point. Ultimately, it leads to the reader achieving their goal—a body that has lost 5kg without rebounding.



Actually, this article is also written to help you take one step toward your future.


Thanks to encountering this article and learning about the [Curse of Knowledge], you might be able to raise the level of your note posts starting tomorrow. I wrote this article wishing for that kind of future for you.


I may still be under the curse of knowledge myself. But I would be happy if this article could be one that helps you take a step toward your future.😌
