Undressing yourself on Triond is the sharing of your views, your thoughts, your knowledge and your experience of life. What are the responses you receive as you undress? If you do not feel great with the feedback it means that you need to take off more of your garment with pride and purposefulness.
I am sure that you agree with me that writing is like undressing oneself. You are revealing who you are and what you believe as you share. This come with one common weapon that we all use and that is “words”. It is the main tool of our trade writing.
What you write makes or breaks the traffic to this site. What do you enjoy sharing? Do you have the experience in doing so? Has the feedback helped you? What have you learnt from the experience? All these are important nuggets that aim to help guide you, the writer to be effective and efficient.
From your writings how many persons are empowered? Was it worth it for us to view the finished product? Was it packaged apppropriately? Should this writing excercise have a video clip from youtube or your personal video job which would render it more effective, what about adding music to the writing? these are just some of the considerations we can examine so that we woo our readers. Consequently, many persons will come away feeling great, happy, or inspired. In doing this we become purposeful in our writing craft. In other words we should organise, write to help others inspiring them to reach excellence in this craft of writing.
Personally, I have read some really great articles and I have been inspired. This comes because there is a passion. Sometimes this comes because the interset is a hobby or a topic of national importance,or it is part of a belief system. However, and by whatever means you are motivated to write do so with a desire for others to do something. Remember what Jean Paul Sartre said ”words are like loaded pistols”. What kind of bullets are you firing in this site?
