Unleash the creative writer within you
How to cure your writing phobia and enjoy writing for profit as of today.
In order to become a successful internet marketer you have to be able to communicate well and be original, this is a vital element of your success. How well you present yourself and how good the material you are selling depends on how good your writing skill is.
Most people are scared to write, because of our negative past experience. All the images and sounds of our teacher at school writing on the blackboard correcting our grammar, punctuation and generally teaching us things which meant nothing at the time start to come back and haunt. But now is your chance to make a better future for you and your family. Before you can excel with your writing power you need to be able to overcome your weakness from your past getting in the way.
Here is how you can overcome your writing phobia: Get an alarm clock and set the timer for 30 minutes. Now write whatever comes in to your mind. Tell yourself, although my writing may not be perfect I shall be proud of whatever I write.
Try to write something you’re familiar with, choose a specific topic you feel passionate about or it’s easier for you write about a major challenge you are facing at the moment. People know their problem well, because they think about it, worry about it, mediate it and project it.
Draw out all your ideas on a mind map. It is much easy to start if you know the whole concept you’re going to write about. Do not limit yourself when drawing out your mind map for your topic. Put as much thoughts on paper as possible. Then take 5 important points from it.
Get a pen and paper and start to write, do not worry about your grammar or sentence structure. Just think, this is a conversation to your closest friend and using the language you would use over the phone and describe the things you want to share. You’ll soon have your short article written. The key is to get over your negative self worth and start writing straight away.
Look at your work after a day, come back to it and re-write it, this is the final stage where you can fine tune your article. The final step, get others to read your article or hire someone to correct your grammar, with practice you’ll see your writing skill improving.
Kin:
I think we all have creative writing issue from time to time and the process you outlined can really help get ideas out of your head and at least started on paper. As you mention, it does not have to be perfect. The first step is getting the ideas on paper, then working on the structure of your topic, then finally writing and sometimes tweaking.
I really like mindmaps but I have never tried to use them for writing. I mostly use them for project outlines.
Thanks for the tip!
