ABOUT TODAY'S EPISODE:

What if the fastest way to write wasn’t writing at all—but listening to the message already waiting for you in the future?

Welcome to Episode 214 of Daily Persuasion with Joshua Lisec, titled “How to Write Faster Like Joshua Lisec, Celebrity Ghostwriter.” In this short yet powerful installment, Lisec—the celebrity ghostwriter behind 97 nonfiction books by age 33—reveals the mindset shift that’s helped him outwrite entire agencies with ease, grace, and precision.

This isn’t your typical “10 tips to write faster” content. This is Lisec showing you how to start writing fast by never actually writing in the first place.

Instead, he explains his signature process: transcribing the future. That’s right—when Lisec sits down to write, it doesn’t feel like typing from scratch.

It feels like capturing what a future version of himself has already written. A narration, a vibe, a voice—that’s what he’s following. You’ll learn how to tap into this exact creative source and write persuasively very quickly, especially when your goal is clear: to influence, to inspire, and to get a reader to say yes.

Because as Lisec teaches in this and many other episodes of Daily Persuasion, persuasion is never about pressure—it’s about clarity. Persuasion is helping someone realize they already want what you’re offering.

That’s why understanding persuasion techniques, including techniques of persuasion in writing, matters so much. In this episode, you’ll discover how to combine the question “What do readers want to hear?” with “What do they need to hear?” and let that be your internal narrator—the voice you transcribe from as you write.

Lisec's books—So Good They Call You a Fake, So Good They Call You a Fascist, and the bestselling Unhumans—are proof that this works. His fans constantly ask how he writes at lightning speed and still produces persuasive, vivid prose. The secret? He's not writing. He’s listening.

🖋️ In Episode 214, Lisec shares:
• How to start writing faster by replacing “What should I write?” with “What does the reader need right now?”
• The exact mental frame he uses to write persuasively very quickly in ghostwriting projects
• Why thinking of yourself as a transcriber instead of a writer unlocks genius-level flow
• The key to infusing your writing with persuasion psychology—without sounding manipulative
• Why focusing on what your reader needs to hear beats chasing trends or hacks
• How tapping into the “voice in your head” leads to more persuasion examples that feel natural and believable

This is not just about writing faster—it’s about writing smarter. And as a celebrity ghostwriter who’s helped entrepreneurs, executives, and public figures tell their stories in record time, Lisec doesn’t hold back.

You’ll also hear how this technique ties directly into persuasive techniques that work beyond books—whether you’re writing sales copy, tweets, scripts, or speeches. You’re not just putting words on a page. You’re guiding someone toward clarity and action.

Lisec shows how examples of persuasion in advertising often come from a place of knowing the audience so deeply, the words feel like they’re reading their own mind. That’s how you persuade someone to do something ethically, effectively, and yes—quickly.

🔥 The takeaway?

Writing fast isn’t a trick. It’s a trance.

When you stop “writing” and start transcribing, you unlock a flow state where words pour out—because you’re finally speaking to the person who needs to hear them most.

Whether you're struggling to hit your word count or want to master the techniques of persuasion in writing, this episode is your shortcut.

This is Daily Persuasion with Joshua Lisec.

And this is how you write fast—and write so good.
