When you sit down to write, there’s only one thing your audience really wants: you.

Not a perfect, polished version of someone else.

Not a copy-paste of trends or generic advice.

They want your voice, your story, and your perspective.

So whatever the reason you write, just write and be yourself.

If you write for the joy of writing, do it. If you write because you want to sell something, do it, If you write to keep you mental health on an even keel do it, but when you write be you.

I got told off in the comments of a recent article because I said that your writing could lead to different opportunities. It seems that some people think that you can’t be a writer if you want to feed your family…. Be YOURSELF!

Write for whatever reason you want.

Here’s how embracing your true self can transform your content and help you build the life you’re striving for.

Be Yourself

Ever read a piece of content and felt like it’s so generic it could have been written by anyone?
