I Decoded The Secret of Becoming a Content Writer

Either write something worth reading or do something worth writing — Benjamin Franklin

I used to be a shitty writer.

Okay, I said it out loud. In fact I didn’t consider myself a professional writer.

It’s been a year since I have been writing on Medium. And I can tell you, there is no secret sauce to becoming a content writer.

It’s all quite obvious. The key is how far you can go to turn your dreams into reality.

It’s never been a better time to be a writer — or aspire to become one. Writing is an art and a craft that needs to be developed through deliberate practice and study over a long period of time.

Let me live, love, and say it well in good sentences. — Sylvia Plath

You are a content creator and want to become a writer, in fact a better one. Follow these things:

1- Consistency triumphs over everything. Write 100 words every day and post.

2- Don’t reverse engineer popular and successful writers. Instead write on topics you can connect and relate to.

3- Worry less if you get less views or zero views. Build a habit of writing and creating a niche for yourself.

4- Read the stuff other content creators post. Curate if you relate to their content. Easiest way to get noticed.

5- Drop a note, send DMs to people who reply to your content. Thanks them for their time.

6- Create your own loyal audience. There is a space for everyone.

7- Start living, the best stories come from living, not sitting and wondering behind the laptop.

8- Spend time outdoors and develop hobbies outside work. It will help you to unlock your creative block.

9- Start your newsletter, it’s one of the best ways to build a connection with your readers.

10. Experiment, Learn, Repeat.

Persist while others are quitting- William Arthur Ward

Persistence in life will take you further.

Don’t be that person who quits at the first obstacle, find a way around it.

Have determination, be persistence, open your mind and if you can’t find a way around it, then go over it, under it, just find a way — that is being persistent!

Be Bold

Be Courageous

Be Your Best
