I am new to Medium. I came across the platform a few days ago and read some success stories that got me extremely motivated. If these guys made it, why shouldn’t I? Plus, I’ve always loved to write. A new challenge also comes in handy since an injury destroyed my professional sports career. I fell into a deep hole afterward. You can read more about it if you click here.

But all beginnings are difficult. I have researched and developed a strategy consisting of the following steps to grow on Medium.

1. Reaching 100 followers

My first goal is to break the mark of 100 followers. This way I can participate in the affiliate program and get access to more publications.

2. Having my articles published in publications

Without readers, it is difficult to move forward. I think my best option is to have as many articles as possible appear in publications to generate as many readers as possible.

3. Learning from the best

I will invest a lot of time to study the most successful writers. What can I learn? How can I level up my style? Which topics work? I hope to recognize patterns and use them for myself.
