The One Missing Ingredient From Your Writing That Makes All The Difference
When I first started writing online, I focused on sharing knowledge. So, I’d write about self-improvement, personal finance, health, and books.
I thought the key to great writing was packing as much value as possible into every piece. I would research, compile insights, and present my findings in a structured, logical way. But something was missing.
No matter how much effort I put into crafting well-researched articles, they didn’t connect the way I wanted. They felt replaceable — anyone could have written them. And as a result, they didn’t get much engagement.
I knew something was missing. There had to be a reason my articles weren’t getting the engagement they deserved. After much consistency and practice, I made a crucial discovery that later proved significant.
I made one simple change: I started sharing personal stories.
Why It Makes All The Difference
People don’t just want information. They want to feel connected to the writer. And nothing builds a stronger connection than personal stories.
When you share your own experiences — your struggles, lessons, and breakthroughs — you invite the reader into your world.
