Things to keep in mind before making money from writing online.

Working on your dreams as an online writer is never easy.

You spend most of your day staring at a screen, you have zero social life, you work mostly based on assumptions, and you’re never over doubting your work or your abilities.

I know this because I’ve faced this. Heck, there are days I go through this even now, after almost threee years of being self-employed as a full-time writer. It’s not easy getting out of the vicious cycle of trying to do too much, which looks like:

  • Being overwhelmed with too many tasks
  • Getting frustrated seeing no results
  • Feeling demotivated and stopping to write

If you haven’t written much or monetized your writing yet, it’s probably because you’re stuck in this circle. You’re thinking too hard about what to do instead of just taking one step at a time.

Stop making your online publishing journey harder than it has to be.

Avoid all of these misguided attempts at writing success, and stick to perfecting your basics. How? Read on.
