Writing can be a daunting task if you make little preparation. Many writers write while thinking about loads of problems in their heads. I am sure writing with those factors is going to make your writing not successful at all.

When writing a story, writers need to have tranquility of mind and a supportive condition. These will be helpful to produce a great writing story that needs to be shared with all the readers out there, so they could read it with ease.

As a writer who has written for almost a month in medium, it can be very challenging to write during the hard times. Below are the lists of how you can write without worrying about the outcome going to turn bad.

Make clear about the ideas you want to tell

Most writers know why they want to write and for what goals. We know most excellent writers had created a masterpiece that was well known for such a very long time. Do you want to know what makes them good? It is their ideas, the story, and the purpose they had planned when they go deeper into the writing world.

Find ones that suit the most with your purpose. You never know your ideas would give a big hit someday. And because of that, why don’t you write now about something that interests you the most and makes the idea you want to express as clearly as possible.

Learn to accept the truth

You know that the writings you probably had created couldn’t turn out as good as the ones that every excellent writer had. Therefore, most writers in their early careers choose to stop and never continue the path. They can’t accept the truth that their writing is awful. I mean what do you expect in your first initial writing to turn out to be? A Harry Potter Franchise Movie?

Of course, it will be poor mostly, but in the end, they who endure during the journey to success are the ones able to create such a masterpiece. Keep going and accept that you just need a lot of training from your trial-and-error sequences.

Motivate yourself to success

I regularly told these words to myself:

“If I were to try and eventually I failed at it, I will learn from it and experiment on new different things. By doing this, the chance that I would win is more likely to come, rather than stop and doing nothing”

It doesn’t mean if you fail you never have the chance for another success. Failing at one thing is just another way to get closer to victory. Remember that failure is only part of the process. No successful individuals in this world are born suddenly to succeed.

Like what Colin Powell said:

There are no secrets to success. It is the result of preparation, hard work, and learning from failure.

Persistent training

Excellent writers are the ones who consistently write every day, every month, or perhaps every year, without stopping. They always write whenever they can or whenever they are now. They train themselves to be the best at what they do in this field. It takes a lot of training and effort to achieve what we know as a matchless masterpiece. Never stop and you will excel at what you do. In this case, if you do the same as they did, you will write seamlessly, having no fear holding you back.

Conclusion

Writing is the thing that I fear the most, besides talking. But I want to tell you that before I write this, I am always afraid of doing so. I was terrified to hit the publish button. Now I can even create 7 articles in just a week because I know I want to succeed someday. If you want to write without fear, you must go all out for the things I have said above.
