How can Understanding ‘Scarcity’ Increase your value as a Writer?

So to recap, NFTs use scarcity of ownership to increase their value regarding the digital asset the token is assigned to. Cryptocurrency and stocks also are finite in supply, and sometimes (even if it’s only perceived) scarcity influence their price. And the same goes with collectables — they become more expensive as there’s a limitation of supply (i.e., the rare Mercedes-Benz Grosser 770).

Study the top writers on these topics and strive to be better than them. Let’s take Tim Denning, my favourite example. If you want to be better than Tim at personal development, then you really need to top up your game. So, when it comes to me, I probably stand no chance (I better write about horses if I want to shine.)

Find your own angle, and don’t be afraid to look at yourself as a special human being. I’m sure there is something that makes you stand out in a crowd. Find it, and put it in writing. Maybe you are a painfully direct individual in just the right ways, you are witty, charming or like to throw in facts to support your arguments. It doesn’t matter. Whatever makes you special as a person, replicate it in your writing.

Discover a new niche. Maybe you are really good at writing about horses (apparently I like exemplifying on horses just as much I like using Tim Denning in my plastic examples). So, write about horses and create a community around this topic. I imagine there are not a lot of writers writing about horses today. It helps to be passionate about the topic because it makes writing more effortless, but if research and documentation is your cup of tea, then it’s equally good. It will just take you longer.
