Wrote and published my article in 1 day!
Writing is not my biggest strength when it comes to online writing because the content has to be engaging with the audience. And the texts have to be broken up multiple times. I found out it's totally different from the traditional, formal writing that I'm used to. Therefore, it takes me a long time to write and publish a post.
As hard as I try, sometime I only publish one post a week. I was told that ideally we're supposed to write and publish a post daily. That's an impossible feat for me! But given the condition I'm in, I was advised that it's okay to write three posts per week. I couldn't even do that yet. Someone said that I will get better and write faster. I'm like, "Oh, yeah right".
No matter what, I have not missed a week and I still publish at least one post a week. I keep going. Then suddenly and for the first time, I wrote and published my article in one day! Yep! I did some keyword research, learned about a product, wrote & edited a post, found some related images, included affiliate links, and published it. Can't believe I did all that in just ONE day!
As the saying goes, "Practice makes perfect"!
Thanks, Tina

Tina, keep up the good work and keep at it.
Unfortunately, "Practice makes perfect" is incorrect, only 'Perfect Practice Makes Perfect'. Meaning you can get real good at doing something wrong, but it's still wrong. The solution, get as much valuable critique and feedback from what you write, and make each article better than the last. Don't be afraid to go back and edit your own previously published work and make that even better.
This is not only my suggestion to you, but to myself as well. We all need to get really good at writing... it's what we do (at least in part) for a living now.
Happy Holidays and a Healthy, Prolific & Prosperous New Year!
Hi Phil. Wow, what a different perspective on your quote. I like it and it makes sense after you explained its meaning. I was thinking about going back to my older posts to edit, but I definitely will after your suggestion. Thank you very much. Wishing you a happy holiday and New Year. -Tina
Hi Tina firstly wishing you a Merry Christmas.
secondly congrats not only on completing a task you may at one stage feel impossible to do considering you feel writing is not you biggest strength but you have also tasted the sweet moment of being paid for a commission you never expected after those long 3 painstaking three month of stressing out thinking no one likes you website.
