There is no gain for you as a writer!
꧁IT DOESN’T PAY TO BE A WRITER꧂
Have you heard of these?
“you can’t make it in this Country as a Writer.”
“Who is going to publish that nonsense you have written?”
“You are just wasting your time” “you spend too much time online” “You are not good enough” “You act like you know it all”….
These and many more criticism, disapproving, disuading statements, I have heard from folks and friends.
They couldn’t understand this path I have chosen for myself to walk alone. They couldn’t and didn’t even see anything worthy and worth their time in my works. It really shows from how they keep asking me how much money have I made from writing.
They couldn’t feel the joy and serenity that I get from writing. The solitude I get from pouring my heart and bleeding through my pen on that white blanket of sheet in my writing pad.
I cried most night back then, doubting if I was really doing the right thing. If truly I wasn’t wasting my time. I questioned my known purpose and hid away in my dark cove.
☛But now!☚
This I know even when I don’t know what the future details is, that I would be an awesome life changer, I’ll impact lives through my writings. People would get to see the light that shines into the heart through my works.
Everything changed when I stopped hiding away, the pain stopped when I had firm trust in myself and my purpose. This goal is what I’m focused on and it would carry me far as long as I stand up for it.
I stood up to challenges, cursed out the fear of limitations, humiliation and criticism.
I found lost gems in insults and criticism, and build up a castle that could weather through the storm.
The criticism might have broken me, turned me into a ‘doubting Thomas’ in the past but now it just keeps building me up, and I am now a ‘PAUL’.

This should be your mantra. What you need to adopt to keep your head high.
I tell you this, I’m not out here to prove my smartness and prowess or here to flaunt my skills and talents. I’m here to prove I can learn and that I’m doing because I want to be smarter, more intelligent and better than I was before.
So, I’m writing this to you dear,
Don’t let anything stop you from writing if it is your purpose. Not even the noises around you should deter you. Not even that one time fail or mistake at it.
This vision of the mission you have seen is only known to you and trust me nobody would understand you because the vision of the mission is only know by you. (qυoтe вy coмғorт. o)
Your struggle won’t tell how successful you are but it would tell how far you will go and what your end result will be. (qυoтe вy coмғorт. o)
Don’t let anyone tell you it doesn’t pay to be a writer or Writers are not millionaires unless you want me to name-call out great prolific writers like Myle Munroe, Joyce Meyer, Francine Rivers, just to mention a few.
Start with a word, turn words to sentence, turn sentences to paragraph, turn paragraphs into chapter, turn chapters into a book! (qυoтe вy coмғorт. o )
Persistence, Consistency, Focus, Determination should be your pushing force to achieve better (qυoтe вy coмғorт. o)
So, I tell you this in Bold letters, ĮŤ ĎỖẸŜ ƤÃЎ ŤỖ βẸ Ã ŴŘĮŤẸŘ!
