I was just wondering, is it better to write your own articles or to have them written? I have heard it is better but would like someone else's opinion.
Personally. I've been able to write all my content myself. I know it's hard because I get writers block from time to time, but I think it's good to do about one article a week. Maybe after a different product each time. It will help you think about different things to write.
Thanks for sharing that. I totally understand from a personal standpoint where you're coming from on why I believe you may prefer to write for yourself. It may be because you feel like you're being true to yourself. And that's a way I've felt for a long time too.
From a business standpoint, there are times when you may need to sort of be the
'chief' and have people do some writing assignments for you that you can oversee before
you publish it.
That's also perfectly good.
Now as to
the fool-proof formula for instantly curing writer's block forever,
if you're thinking I was going to say, "There is none" that would be a mistake!
Because there most certainly is!
You see, when we're writing, there are 2 two mindsets at work with us.
One is the
writing mindset. The other is the
critical mindset (our own internal editor).When you're experiencing "writer's block" it's because you are
prematurely getting into that 'critical' mind or "editing mode".
So, to instantly cure it forever,
what you need to do is just write without being critical.
It doesn't matter how it looks, sounds, flows or even how you've spelled your words.
Just get it out there.
Open a vein and let it flow.
That's when you're getting out your best ideas and thoughts on the matter
down in black and white.
Now, only after you've done all that,
you can now put on your "editor's cap"
and be as critical as you want!
The secret to this formula is to postpone being the editor until it's time for the editor.
And that's only
AFTER the writer is finished.
Selah.
So if you just write and get it out at first, you can always go back and correct it later.
That way, it's a lot easier because you've actually got that
work already done in front of you.
It's a lot easier to edit the heck out of some writing
than it is to try to come up with some writing in the first place.
So that's the way to cure it.
Just write first and then edit later.
You'll be amazed at how this can create some major breakthroughs for you
when you apply it for yourself!
Thanks for mentioning writer's block. It gave me the opportunity to share
the cure for it!
