I joined Medium in late May 2020. I’m about to hit the one-year mark. It’s been a rollercoaster, to say the least.

I had big dreams for Medium. By this time around, I was expecting to earn 500$ per month at the very least. But sadly, that never happened.

Although I do feel a tad bit disappointed, I’ve also accepted it.

One thing I realized on my Medium journey is that being successful on Medium is far from easy.

While hard work always helps, luck and the right external circumstances play an equally important role in helping you make big bucks on Medium.

If you’re disheartened that you’re not where you’d ideally like to be when it comes to your success on Medium, don’t be.

Here’s how Medium can benefit you in the long run.

It can enhance your career as a content writer.

Medium can act as your online portfolio and sample work. Employers can take a look at your articles, see the engagement your articles are getting, and this could leave a good impression on them as well as prove to them your competence as a writer.
