Article Writing Success Depends On Quality of Insights – Not Word Count!

I recently came across a blog post by a famous writer/thought leader that was MUCH less than 200 words – yet still communicated powerfully useful and life-changing insights.

By way of interest, the author is one who readily churns out write-ups over 2,000 words long, with deeply impactful messages. So it’s not like he has difficulty writing long pieces.

<b>That fact lends credence to the view I’ve always had, that one can make his/her own rules in any chosen vocation.

</b>

You don’t have to stick with any particular format or formula all the time. Not even those recommended by experts or so called Gurus.

This is because YOU are a unique human being, and your thought processes are peculiar to you – different from what any other person is capable of.

As a result, when you diligently apply yourself to a thinking-dependent activity like writing, there will be times when your original thoughts come in a manner that demands they be penned “as is”. No padding or fluff. Just the raw -even if comparatively brief – form.

<blockquote>Here’s why you need not resist this impulse if/when it comes upon you…

You see sometimes it won’t be the number of words you write and publish that counts. Instead it will be the quality of insights contained in them!</blockquote>

My advice: don’t hold back, if you feel the urge to share – publish your new thoughts and ideas in your blog, and help more of your target audience find their way to success.

They’ll be grateful to you for it!

<B>Having said the above, it goes without saying that you need to apply due diligence in putting the ideas I’ve shared here to use.

Deciding how brief (or wordy) any of your writeups should be, will ideally be influenced by YOUR sound understanding of your target audience, and your intended purpose.

Remember: even the rules can be broken by you, if need be, to achieve your goal.

PS: This article would NOT be complete, if I did not share the less than 200 word insightful article by the author I mentioned at the start of this piece. There is a lot you can learn from reading it. <a href=”http://sethgodin.typepad.com/seths_blog/2016/07/the-second-time-you-create-that-breakthrough.html” target=”blank”>So click here to do so now</a>.
