I struggled with social media when I started.
Why would I want to put myself out there?
When I thought of things I wanted to say, it made sense in my head. But writing it down, getting the first few lines out was incredibly difficult..
Things that made sense in the head were miserably off the mark when it transferred to paper. It seemed directionless.
It was much easier to quit. To busy myself knowing that I could always get back into it later. There were important tasks to complete. Tomorrow I would start again.
How did I find a way forward?
I persisted.
I looked for small wins. I had a goal. I wanted it badly. I was willing to put in the time. Even in the dark. Even without guidance.
Learn by experience, they say. It’s not always the best way, nor the quickest but a good way nevertheless.
So how do you not bore your audience to tears? Focus on the reader and you’re more than halfway there.
