7 Brutal Lessons I Learned About Social Media After Writing Content For More Than One Year
Most people do not create content on the internet because of fear. They cannot handle harsh criticisms. They also lack mental toughness. But if you want to be successful, you need to learn new skills.The best content creators are patient and here are the 7 brutal lessons I learned about social media after writing content for more than one year:I recently watched a Ted Talk about writing. The speaker said in her talk that “If you are not offending anyone in your writing, you are doing something wrong.” The best content creators are known for one thing. Ali Abdaal is known for productivity and Mr. Beast is known for creating viral videos. You cannot please everyone and that’s okay. The best writers write despite of lack of motivation.Structure is not an enemy of creativity. For example, Donna Tartt, a Pulitzer Prize Winning Novelist, writes for 3 hours every morning. Most essays follow the same format- introduction, body, and conclusion.The first chapter of any novel should motivate you to read the entire book. Fiction writers know how to create suspense in their stories. They know how to capture the attention of readers.If musicians love to go to concerts, writers love to read new books. The best ideas happen by accident. You cannot explain where it came from. Creative people love to tell jokes about how to find new ideas. Stephen King, legendary writer and storyteller, says, “If you want to be a writer, you must do two things above all others: read a lot and write a lot. There’s no way around these two things that I’m aware of, no shortcut.”
