You take all or nothing (at best) — Hey-hey folks! An interesting but not very pleasant incident happened to me recently. I learned valuable lessons from it and want to share them with you! When I logged into my Account after a writing break, I noticed something strange..

I’ll explain it to you in simple words and fun illustrations. — Sheesh! I have never been away from writing for so long! Here I am again, and once again I am busy, busy for you! For the first time in my life, I have experienced so vividly two creative diagnoses at once, Writer’s Block and Proclamation, sorry.. Proclastimation… wait a minute! …

Plus a few simple rules for increasing your story views! — As I started a new health page on Medium (follow it if you really like health topic), I found that my new stories are not getting views very well. I’m not used to such low numbers lately, as the average story on a Writing page gets 100–300–500 views. …

It gets more $ than a long one! At least for me. — This would be a short and very informative story. And yes, it will not pass the curation by a human curator. And it won’t earn me a car!

Over the years, many Medium authors from all over the world have written sad (sometimes even tearful) stories about how they can’t make and…

It took me over a year to come to this point. Don’t repeat my HUGE mistake. — I have a destructive creative habit that blocks my writing and life success- saving my BEST for later. Do you recognize it in you, too? I’m sure some of you are experiencing it right now. And this article is like a signal from on high. …

This simple tip will help many readers, but not all. Therefore, the platform should approach it fundamentally, as I wrote in this article. — In my last story, I complained about the fact that the medium’s algorithm sets some quotas in the program code, the purpose of which is to limit the showing of stories in the recommendation. Well, Medium gave readers a choice, but not all of them know how it works, and…

And what it could mean for readers and writers? — A brief digression. Let’s leave politics aside and get down to business. I don’t come to Twitter for politics. But for news and content, for ideas.
