Substack Challenge Submission

Your submission needs to be entered by 11:59 p.m. EST, Thursday, July 31, 2025.

Write your first Substack post using our simple 3-part formula:

The “First Post” Framework

Opening: Start with a question or observation (about 15 words)

• “Have you ever noticed that…?”
• “Here’s something most people don’t realize about…”

Body: Share 1 insight, tip, or story (about 170 words)

• Something you learned
• A mistake you made
• A unique observation

Close: Ask your readers a question (about 15 words)

• “What’s been your experience with this?”
• “Have you noticed this too?”

That’s it. No fancy headlines. No deep expertise needed. Just one interesting, human idea—shared simply and honestly.
