My Medium Goal For The Rest Of 2021 Is To Do The Work
No plan is complete unless you put in the work to complete it
To be a writer, you have to write.
As simple as that sounds, it’s shockingly easy to underestimate the importance of this statement. You can’t call yourself a writer if you barely write anything. At that point, you have a fascination with writing or a strong interest in writing, but it’s hard to take someone seriously if they don’t commit to their word.
As much as it pains me to say it, I often fall into this trap myself.
Throughout the past year, I have written as much as possible. My publishing frequency is usually 3–4 high-quality posts per week. Like many working adults, I have responsibilities and other commitments that often impede my creative energy and time management for writing. It’s just a part of being a working, middle-class adult.
However, I know in my heart, I can do better.
That if I really wanted to get serious about it, I can write much more than that while experiencing too much of a drop in quality. If, at all.
Maybe I’m just underestimating my true potential.
The Top Writers of Medium all have one thing in common: they write high-quality, thought-provoking…
