In this episode, the formula for creating addictive, memorable, and attention-grabbing content is discussed. This formula can be used to make people want to read your content, watch your videos, and buy your products. The formula is simple and easy to use, and can help you create content that people will love.

Tracy Brinkman explains that the Zeigarnik Effect states that people tend to remember unfinished tasks and incomplete tasks far better than they remember completed tasks. She gives the example of a waiter who is better at recalling orders that he has not yet delivered than the orders he has already fulfilled.

The Zeigarnik Effect is a technique that entrepreneurs can use to keep their audience engaged by opening up loops that the audience desperately wants closed. An example of how to do this is by asking questions in social media posts and then providing regular updates on the story.

The speaker explains how to use the Zeigarnik method to keep readers engaged in your content. This method involves teasing readers with something powerful, strange, or amazing that will be revealed later. However, the speaker warns against overusing this method, as it can anger readers and dissuade them from consuming your content.
