Should I or should I not become a writer

   Posted by: michy   in General

I wonder how some people could easily find things to write about. And write about it so beautifully and sensibly. Is it really a gift or is it something that they have done for so long that it became easy for them to do it? Some of these people can even write about a shirt and go on about it without boring the people who reads it. And they can even write about it in a short period of time. A friend of mine asked me to write 50 short articles about anything that I want to write about in a month. Well, guess what, 5 month have passed and I’m not done with the fifty articles yet. So I wonder how they do it. You know come up with the topic and write a book about in a short period of time and keep the attention of the people who reads it. Because I can’t even keep the attention of the person that I talk to even for 10 minutes much more have them read about what I think. I had a feedback for a coaching session where one of my coachees told my mentor that I was boring.

Great! Thank you so much for confirming what I already know. So here I am contemplating if I really should go for a career in writing. Funny isn’t it? I don’t know. At times I just want to do things because I want to do them and then I’ll just drop it without any reason at all. And right now, I want to write. About what? That I can’t answer yet. At times I just don’t know what I like to do. Just like my brat friend, at times, I find myself wanting to stop what I am doing and do something else. Something that I feel like doing at the spur of the moment. Even though at times I don’t even know what that something is. Am I impulsive? No I don’t think so. Well, at least my DiSC result says so. It said that I am an analytical thinker. I think before I move. At times I even think too much that at the end I end up not doing what I want to do. Crazy isn’t it?
