You poured your heart and soul into your latest Medium post.

You edited, polished, and hit publish — with very high hopes.

But days go by, and…crickets.

No claps, no comments, no shares.

Hard truth: it’s probably not your writing skills that let you down.

Better headline: “I Tried 5 Weird Productivity Hacks (You Won’t Believe #3!)”
