10 Things I Learned from Writing 50 Articles on Medium
Write, write and then some more…
3 months ago I started this writing journey. Now, 50 articles later, I feel a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction in hitting this landmark. I never thought I’d get this far.
Before all this, I never saw myself as a writer. Now, 50.000 words later, I guess I am. Granted, nobody reads my stuff, I don’t make a dime from it, and there’s a lot of room for improvement, and yet, here I am, publishing content on the best platform regularly.
After a long search with many dead ends, I found writing almost by chance. While writing for personal use and some specialized blogs, I realized I’ve always had a penchant for the written word, and not just as a mean, but also as an end, in and of itself.
I joined medium in 2018 and was very impressed by the quality of the publications. Not only the best writers of this century publish here, like Taleb and Harari, but also heavyweight Medium talents like Ayodeji Awosika and others.
Ayo is a personal development author and a top writer in Medium. The moment I read one of his articles, I knew he was the guy to follow. He became my mentor and provided the inspiration to make me write these lines.
