Writing is hard.
Writing is easy.
You’re bound to get writer’s block.
Writer’s block doesn’t exist.
You need to write at least 2,000 words or a chapter a day.
As long as you get one sentence down, it’s a successful day.
Connections don’t matter at first, focus on content.
Content doesn’t sell, connections and personality do. Content comes last.
These are all pieces of advice I’ve gotten from successful writers and I’m sure they are also pieces of advice you’ve read online too. You know what? Believe in the one you believe in. They all work as long as you believe in them.
If you believe writing is hard, don’t take suggestions from someone who thinks it’s easy. If you don’t believe in writer’s block, how do you plan to apply the tricks to overcoming what you don’t think exists? It doesn’t make sense, confuses you and breaks your momentum.
There are a hundred different paths to follow to become a successful writer. You only need to take one. The one you believe the most in.
Stay Positive & Remember There’s No Shortcut*
*Not in doing what you believe in and not in doing what you don’t believe in. It’s more about which one you can enjoy more and be more passionate about.
