BusyDevs Workflow: Best thought process to turn your inputs into original LinkedIn posts
The BusyDevs workflow turns inputs into posts in less than 1 minute. Not by having AI write for you, but by structuring your thinking: capture your reaction, separate signal from noise, and use AI as an editor to turn your raw thoughts into polished posts. Here's the repeatable process.
Why inputs matter more than prompts
Don't start with a generic prompt asking AI to write a post. Start with your actual input: a note about a trend you noticed, or a one-sentence reaction to an article. That input is your authentic voice; everything else builds from there.
One sentence is enough. Capture the reaction, then expand it later. That keeps your content fresh and tied to reality.
Separating signal from noise
Not every reaction deserves a post. Ask yourself: does this add value? Is this original? Would someone learn something from this? If the answer is no, skip it.Curating your inputs is part of building a credible voice.
- your take (what you think)
- why it matters (what readers should do with this)
Using AI as an editor, not writer
Once you have your raw thoughts, use AI to polish: fix grammar, improve flow, add transitions. But keep your voice. Don't let AI rewrite your ideas; let it edit your expression. The thinking should be yours; the polish can be assisted.
Avoiding accidental paraphrasing: if your post sounds like it could have been written by anyone, you've lost your voice. Keep the specific examples, the personal context, and the authentic reactions that make it yours.
Consistency without burnout
Time-boxing content creation: set a limit. 15 minutes from input to post. If it takes longer, either simplify or save it for later. That constraint forces you to focus on what matters and prevents content creation from becoming a time sink.
Scaling personal voice: the more you use this workflow, the more your voice comes through. You're not writing from scratch every time; you're capturing reactions and expanding them. That makes consistency achievable without burning out. End-to-end BusyDevs example:- pick a GitHub release
