How Did I Go From a Best-Selling Author to Losing All My Work; For All New Self-Published Authors
With tears in my eyes, and shaking hands, I write this article with great courage to tell you — that life can take the ugliest turns when you think ‘Finally, my life is good.’
Long story short, I have spent the majority of my life struggling. I was never good at anything. I was always compared to and made to feel like a zero. Yet, I always had the biggest dreams. Even when I was a kid, I knew I would become successful someday.
How?
I didn’t know that. Until 2020, I didn’t even know my passion. Everyone around me, since I was a kid, reminded me why I will never be successful.
But as I said, I always had the biggest dreams. I knew that someday, one day I would be something big. Someone who is doing a great work.
When I started writing on Medium, I was hesitant. I thought ‘Why would anyone want to read my work?’
Self-doubts were always my home. A place I would end up in no matter how big the dreams were in my head.
Yet, after writing for almost 2 years on Medium — 15 months for free, I knew that writing was what I would want to do for the rest of my life.
