I am not a writer

I do not want to be a writer. But I write every single day.

I am not a writerI do not want to be a writer. But I write every single day.


I do not want to be a writer. But I write every single day.

This is the same as someone saying…”I do not want to be a professional weightlifter, but I work out every single day.”

I do not want to be a public relations person. I do not want to be a big time content producer. I do not want to write for other people.

I write for myself. And now, I write for you.

That is all.

I am not a journalist. I am not a perfect editor.

I just write. And I do it every single day.

I believe that writing is an incredibly important and powerful skill. That is not exaggeration — I think that, in the same way people go to the gym everyday because they believe it is good for their health — writing can really change your life.

More than just for “fitness of your brain,” writing is a great way to start your day. Just like the gym, it is a booster. Hitting publish makes you feel accomplished. It gives you energy to go on and do the next big thing.

I love writing. But I will never be a writer.
