WRITING

Write Short Stories and Get An Income

“Money has the power to buy you things. But a much bigger power of money is in generating more money for you. Those who are able to manifest the latter, are never short of it.” ― Manoj Arora, From the Rat Race to Financial Freedom

Hi there,

Unfortunately, many people do not read these days. Visual arts are more prominent. You can make good money from Tiktok, YouTube, or Twitch. But do not forget that a team works behind those visuals. Many ads are written by teams.

Writing is a great tool for personal growth. Start writing with small stories and set a routine for yourself. After a while, you will see how far you have progressed.

Writing a novel is needed hard work and takes time. But you can make an e-book or write a blog with the little stories you write. You can even work with many social media influencers and prepare their transcripts!

Recently, many people’s side income has exceeded their main income, perhaps this is a gift given to us by the internet and the developing social media.

For example, Tim Denning is a popular writer who makes a good amount of money on Medium and his writing quality is really good and he has spent years writing and still maintains his inner discipline. I love reading his articles because he somehow connects with the reader very well.

“The greater the passive income you can build, the freer you will become.”― Todd M. Fleming

Ali Abdaal was a content producer who was a medical doctor in the UK and I think his way of earning extra income is really inspiring and he started it with his personal blog.

The short stories you write do not only make you gain financially but also make the knowledge you have gained more permanent.

Remember, if you want to be successful in anything in this life, you must work hard. You may not be able to get to the point you want at first, but it is possible to show good earnings and good success over time. All you must do is be consistent!

I think Medium is a great platform for you to publish your articles, but I can also suggest you a few websites,

VOCAL

NEWSBREAK

WOODENBOAT

PASSAGEMAKER MAGAZİNE

HOSTELLING INTERNATIONAL CANADA

Not every story has to be long. Please do not bore the reader with unnecessary information just for the sake of long writing.
