WAYS TO MAXIMIZE YOUR WRITING POTENTIAL

Have you ever dreamed of exploring your writing
potentials to the peak?
You wonder why your potentials appear to be
under-explored,
you desire to stand tall and be a pacesetter in
writing. Of course,
almost everyone desires lofty positions
but it comes with some level of responsibilities
and insights.
Here are my 5 Great secrets to maximize your
writing potentials:
STUDY Yourself: the very first step to maximize
your writing potentials is to take a
critical and sincere study of your soul. By that, you
would be able to
identify what your interest(s) is/are, what you take
delight in writing about where you can find your
voice; more importantly, what you can do best:
poetry, short story, essays, religious articles,
health tips and many more. An understanding of
your personality will enhance your choice of niche.
Sadly, so many people end up writing about what
they don't have passion for.
This will lead to a low-level of dedication and
commitment and in turn, poor output.
Study Thyself. Know Thyself. Follow your Heart.
Write about what gives you joy.
Ravaging Hunger: when you write about what you
love, it is
expedient to develop thirst and hunger for your
writings
such that, you don't feel comfortable or have
peace if
you have not put pen to paper about what you love
on a day.
Your hunger to write everywhere and anywhere
births CONSISTENCY.
Consistency is a kinsman to habit, feeding your
hunger for writing will
become habitual. Habits over time become
addictions.
And Hey! Being addicted to writing is one of the
great joys of a writer.
Reading: one of the greatest ways to maximize
your writing potentials is by reading,
writers, are first readers. Your writing career
begins from first being a voracious reader.
Reading reveals to you the nuances of your niche.
Mentoring is also a viable means to attain a lofty
height in your writing career.
Listen!
You get mentored by interrogating the written
works of those you desire to be like.
In addition to reading, seminars, conferences, and
participating in writing contests are good ways of
maximizing your writing potentials.
Hard work: This is one of the key indispensable
elements to maximize your writing potentials
Countless talented folks, potential great stars get
crushed and left in the abyss
of the UNKNOWN because of sheer laziness!
A lazy fellow regardless of how talented or gifted
will remain USELESS like an
Uncultivated Fertile Land.
Hard work is the crux of Success( tweet that)
Some level of seriousness, some level of
commitment, some level of dedication
is needed to effectively harness your writing
potentials.
Hard work is one of the few things not available for
auction at the market.
It is borne out of a conscious and concerted effort.
Hard work is the network of nerves to accomplish
a task. (Tweet that)
Platform/Audience: very writer needs a platform;
your platform is like your megaphone to the world.
Everyone has a story to tell, everyone has a duty
to get an avenue to tell it.
Your platform serves as a viable means to connect
with people of like minds:
an avenue to LEARN, get IMPARTED, to TOUCH
lives and IMPART people with your story.
Your platform helps you create a community of
friends that are interested in what you do.
