<p>I realized earlier this month that I had lost concentration in my writing abilities, and I’m still not sure why. I can’t come up with new ideas anymore. The more I attempt, the more I get minor headaches and wind up laying down for the entire day, which drains me. Every day I don’t write, I feel like I’m excluding myself from the maturing process. Every day I don’t write, I feel like I’m losing a piece of myself. I’d like to write every week and share my thoughts and ideas with people, but it’s difficult for me right now.</p><p>But, I believe that everything has its own time. Last week, I told myself that I needed to let go of this stumbling block. So, I recently decided to do some introspection, and I discovered that I had been punishing myself all along. The phrase “Writer’s Block” hit me. I couldn’t think of anything to write or how to start writing a story. I felt as if I had lost my voice while writing. However, guess what? I’m back and ready to brainstorm and provide stuff for you.</p><p>If you’re having the same problem as I am. Don’t overthink it or torture yourself; instead, allow yourself the space and time to analyze about what went wrong. Then, if you find a solution, slap yourself on the back for not being so hard on yourself, and get back to doing what you do best. I’m not sure what time it is at your destination, but it’s already late (12:03am) and I’m sitting at my desk typing this piece. I guess my writer’s block is over, and I’m glad to be writing again. I’m relaxed and content. I guess I’ll start typing at night because it’s so peaceful and quiet, plus it gives you more time to focus on yourself and your writing, which I enjoy. At this point, I believe I have overcome writer’s block, and I hope you will as well. Please don’t be too hard on yourself.</p>
At the end of each month, we give out cash prizes to 5 people with the best insights in the past month
as well as coupon points to 15 people who didn't make the top 5, but shared high-quality content.
The winners are NOT picked from the leaderboards/rankings, we choose winners based on the quality, originality
and insightfulness of their content.
Here are a few other things to know
1
Quality over Quantity — You stand a higher chance of winning by publishing a few really good insights across the entire month,
rather than a lot of low-quality, spammy posts.
2
Share original, authentic, and engaging content that clearly reflects your voice, thoughts, and opinions.
3
Avoid using AI to generate content—use it instead to correct grammar, improve flow, enhance structure, and boost clarity.
4
Explore audio content—high-quality audio insights can significantly boost your chances of standing out.
5
Use eye-catching cover images—if your content doesn't attract attention, it's less likely to be read or engaged with.
6
Share your content in your social circles to build engagement around it.
