🎙️ Talking Is the New Typing

Hi friend,

This might be the most useful productivity hack I’ve discovered all month:

→ Use your voice to write.

Not later.

Not from a fancy mic.

Just… while walking to the train, heading home from work, or doing errands on foot.

I don’t open my Notes app.

I don’t dictate into Google Docs.

Instead, I open the ChatGPT mobile app, hit the transcription mic, and start talking.

Within seconds, my voice becomes clean, structured text.

From idea → to outline → to post.

No keyboard. No friction. No perfectionism.

Why does this matter?

Typing has limits.

Voice is faster.

Thinking is even faster.

I work at TELUS, and I recently picked up a book; The Sound of the Future by our CEO, Tobias Dengel.

In it, he shares a compelling vision:

And you know what?

It’s already happening.

What’s next for me?

Right now, I’m manually transcribing posts via ChatGPT’s voice feature.

But soon, I’ll automate it:

→ Submit a form → trigger transcription → auto-draft into a blog post.

Just like setting up any other system, it’s slow at first, but it compounds.

You build once, then benefit again and again.

🔁 Today’s Insight

Don’t just write more.

Find better ways to think.

Voice is fast.

Automation is faster.

And when paired with a consistent habit, they become unstoppable.
