There’s a saying that goes;

“It’s not about going through school; the school must go through you.”

In my career as a writer, I’ve found this to be accurate. Whatever it is we give ourselves to, verily, gives itself back to us. And writing is no exception.

About this time last year, I made a commitment to write consistently; in hopes that, paradventure, it might become a full time thing.

A reasonable goal of anyone who’s slaved enough in this rat race of 9–5.

So I pressed on.

I wrote a lot and spent even more time engaging on the platform. Along the way, my writing improved greatly. Words flowed with ease. I got significantly better in putting vocabs together and writing powerful sentences.

I also fostered good friendships with many writers here, as we supported each other.

This commitment and diligence, yielded shocking fruits in my earning. And funny enough, also in my overall life’s satisfaction.
