A Poem To My Future Lover.
*If I could relive the first day I saw you, then my entire life would be on rewind.*
*I can't stop time but I know time stopped the first time I saw you.*
*I remember looking at you and telling myself for the first time that, am in love.*
*Love doesn't exist in my world but what I felt that day was pure, true and unexplainable.*
*My heart mistook you for an angel and fell madly for you.*
*Am scared of you not because you are some monster or demon but because you are an Angel.*
*I stutter when talking to you because my whole being doesn't want to mess it up.*
*Seeing you every day means the world to me.*
*My heart and mind have carved in an imprinted image of you, the way you smile, the way you walk, your eyes, your lips.*
*I dream about kissing you now and then, your pink lips hmmm, mmm.*
*Your whole body kicks me off and craves for you.*
**The Moment I Saw Her.**
Seeing you for the first time, I had two options- one either to approach you for the first time and tell you how I felt about you, but then I thought I will look like a creep and one of those street boys, and what I felt for you won't have been real if I did approach you.
The second option- *I was to admire, love, cherish and adore everything about you from a distance, never to tell you how I felt about you, never!!. I don't believe in magical moments but the moment I saw you something magical happened.*
Thinking About You.
Thinking about you became a daily task, I catch myself having deep conversations with you in my head. And to everyone that speaks to me, I imagine seeing you in them and your voice coming out of their mouth. It sounds crazy but just the thought of you makes my whole day.
*Am happy when I think of you.*
*Am crazy when I sit thinking about you.*
*I cherish every moment of thought I have about you.*
*You are not just someone I think of you are the thought itself.*
*I imagine having long conversations with you but never thought of what to say.*
*I know is not lust but love, if it were lust I won't have stayed this long being crazy about you.*
*I want to be your one, want to be the one.*
*If it were up to me I want to be the only person you see, the only person you feel and think of, but am just human and love is not forced*.
Never thought love is beautiful, the feeling alone makes you crazy, and the thought of the person makes you even crazier. I want to tell you how I feel, I imagine myself not stuttering from the beginning of the conversation to the end of it, not telling you something written down or something I read somewhere but what I feel about you and how I want it to be said. Love is free, when you get it enjoy every moment of it.
My Conclusion.
*Love is beautiful, and when you think you feel it for someone cherishes, it is because, in this world where evil prevails, the things that are real now are music and real love.*
The World Of Cryptocurrency Connecting Us.
We have lived in an era where music connected us on a deeper level and still is and where movies and sports have connected us on a profound level. These connections lives a mark to be remembered and usually friends all over the world. You make friends when you guys share common goals- you like the same music, or movies, or are interested in the same team.
The world of Bitcoin has connected people and is still connecting people, we have been in its era for a long time. The crypto-verse be it BCH, Bitcoin, Litecoin or Ethereum and many more has been connecting us on a deeper level. The crypto-verse has inspired an ever-growing large number of followers and users.
Is For Everyone.
No matter your religion, ethnicity or faith you can freely access any of the cryptocurrencies. In localities where they don't have access to banks or other state infrastructures but have internet access one can buy, sell, trade and transmits across a decentralised vast network of users. Its decentralised nature makes it possible for the exchange to be done across borders.
The use of cryptocurrency will bring about a financial revolution that will leave everyone ( who is in the crypto-verse) financial stable, connected and enabled. An added advantage is that there are so many apps and programs now that facilitate the use of cryptocurrencies and bring them closer to the ever-growing audiences.
Transaction Rate Is Low.
Who doesn't like the idea of cheap transactions? I know I do, I think because they don't need an actual building to exist, the rate for the transaction is low, there is no need for paying taxes, salaries to workers, utility bills or maintenance, all this combined makes it possible for a low transaction cost.
You can trade with no minimum deposit required ( depending on the broker you use) this in turn encourages more and more people to begin trading. All transactions are digitalized and so they are tracked in a distributed ledger that also contributes to making it have a low rate transaction. The rate at which the crypto-verse is growing makes it possible for more cheap and safe transaction methods.
Leverage For Entrepreneurs.
Not to sound like an advertiser or anything but there is no better time to start and boost your business than now, in the sense that cryptocurrency can help business owners receive payment in more and different currencies.
The world is changing and the change is fast, very fast, the rate and speed at which the cryptocurrency is growing and taking over is a sure indication that in years to come we might not need the traditional financial institutions we have. Some needs are emerging and the traditional financial institutions can no longer address them, the crypto-verse has everything it needs to address such needs.
It has everything we need and is just a matter of time before the cryptocurrencies find their way through our very lives, fashioning our lives, helping millions to have the opportunity to invest, save, send money across borders and start a business and even help your family thanks the world of cryptocurrencies.
My Conclusion.
Cryptocurrency is fashioning our lives now and living a mark to be remembered.

A Life Living To Please Others.
Are you a prisoner? Are you living in the fantasies of other people? Do you live a life of wanting to please others and live up to their expectations? Or do you feel you will never be good enough? If so, you are living in the shadows of others.
I have lived a life of trying to please a few selected people in my life and thought for so long that if they are impressed I will finally be seen and heard. There is nothing wrong with wanting to please people that you love or wanting them to see you. In most cases, it turns out to be a beautiful thing and fruitful in some aspects, but you living your life every day to please them or you living for them becomes a dilemma.
Living a life of trying every day to impress people is like pouring water into the ocean, the ocean will never be enough or tell you is sufficient, but if you do it you are working yourself out by doing something that won't benefit you or the ocean. Because the people you are trying to impress won't ever be satisfied with whatever it is you do.
You Are A Prisoner When; You Let Others Conviction Become Your Truth.
One needs to have a strong foundation of personal assurance that you know yourself and not let others have the final say in whatever you want to do. This can lead to poor decision-making when we let the conviction of others become our truth.
*You Feel You Are not Good Enough or Less Valuable when you are not Close to that Person.*
You lose every sense of choice and self-determination when the people you want to impress are not around, you tend to lose yourself. Yes, some people in your life can and will motivate and bring value to your life but never at the cost of you losing who you are.
Don't Be A Prisoner.
You have your whole life ahead of you, don't live it trying to please others, live it to the fullest extent. Some people will add meaning and value to our lives but their lives are theirs and ours.
Just like prisoners that are confined in a cell and given any kind of food and clothing and they do not have any choice or decision to make, but to obey and do whatever it is they are commanded to do. Live not like prisoners but live your lives as humans that can make decisions for themselves.
Allow others to influence you positively and not to the extent of you losing yourself.
My Conclusion.
*I once lived a life of "if I don't please this person in whatever it is that am doing then the person will never be happy with me and the person will leave me. For a very long time, I have been a prisoner, I have held myself captive living the lives of others. I don't let the conviction of others become my truth. The idea of insecurity comes in when all we want to do is, please other people.*

Human Survival Kit.
*"I survived, I am a survivor- I have been robbed at gunpoint with my family, I have witnessed an insurgency and countless civil unrest, and have been in a bike accident countless times, am not an expert but I survived "*
It starts with humans living in groups and colonies and where they will live and what to eat, then they started hunting for food, then the food search, it has always been about food and moves where to find food. The story of the human race has being always about survival and for centuries it has been going on like this.
For centuries humans have devised different kinds of means for survival, hunting for food, farming for food and fighting for food. And in our modern-day today, we work for someone and get paid with money so we can buy food for our survival.
Like when a lioness gives birth to her young ones, she feeds them but does something remarkable at the same time- teaches them the art of Survival. She teaches them how to survive and prepares them for survival. Humans have done the same for centuries and over time these skills have changed but some things remain the same, the kit.
Be Prepared.
Preparation for whatever it is that will come one's way is crucial for the survival of every human. Being prepared is an added advantage to one achieving success, prosperity and most importantly one's survival. We wash plates, clean our houses, and iron our clothes for work, in our daily lives we hold responsibilities that require us to act and react for our survival. So be prepared in advance adds more to our survival.
In the art of being prepared for survival, one needs to Anticipate. Anticipation makes you think before you act and reflect on things consistently. Anticipation makes you plan your weeks, months and years, it helps you to judge what is coming next.
When you anticipate what is coming next and you are prepared for it then know that your future complications are a result of your silly negligence.
Be Self-Disciplined.
In our journey for survival, we need to develop an attitude and a state of eagerness to whatsoever that might come our way- Self-Discipline is an acquired skill that helps us to have the eagerness and be ready for what will be coming our way.
We can not achieve anything worthwhile if we are too hard on ourselves, but achieving something worthwhile compels one to be steadfast and zealous for survival. When we fail to discipline ourselves in this journey of human survival, we become very unfulfilled individuals.
Everyone wishes for things to be done once and for all, and repetition is an ugly word but when it's meets with self-discipline it can be a routine to achieve something worthwhile.
My Conclusion.
*We all do what we can to survive, amidst all that let's be prepared, let's anticipate things will come our way and let self-discipline make us achieve something worthwhile and survive.*
The Gift Of Writing.
Do you enjoy writing? Do you enjoy playing around with words? Do you enjoy that privilege of writing here on read.cash or other platforms as well?
We all enjoy what I call the "free will of writing". We enjoy the freedom of writing what is on our minds and still get tips and an audience that reads and tells us their views on the topic written.
The Gift Of Self Inspection.
Do you write the old fashion way, the traditional way of writing with a pen and a book, or do you write using a Tablet, a phone or a laptop? Whichever method you use, that brief moment you want to start, your mind is off the gas for a moment and your whole being wonders or dives into the topic.
Writing gives you a moment and a chance to slow down and reflect on yourself and the people around you or your audience. That gift costs nothing but a pen and a book or a tablet. Introspection what every writer does before taking a pen and book to write.
Creativity; A Gift.
Every line written, every paragraph penned down is the creative work of the author. The gift every author possesses is they can create whatever they want with every line that is written.
Being creative becomes very interesting when an author is engaging with other writers and writes too because that is where the creativity will come in when he writes. To be better at your creativity as a writer you being active with writing will be the number one set goal but creativity is not passive.
Creativity is like a guest that visits only when she knows she is welcome, and the best way an author can welcome her is by writing anything, it's a gift after all. And at times writer's block or maybe you don't feel creative, but when you write daily magic happens.
The Gift Objectivity.
Every author wants to know what his audience wants, and writing every time has a way of connecting you with the audience. Writing has a way of connecting with other people's brains. Writing makes you be in the mind of others.
When a character is created by an author, writing creates this aspect or perspective where the author puts himself in the mind of the character, taking control of the character and just take over. The gift of objectivity or perspectivity puts your mind and that of your created characters to become one and all that is done because of the gift of writing. A gift like no other that we all have here on read.cash.
Writing is not just writing words and letters on a piece of paper or typing on a screen but it has a way of connecting and communing with people. Writing aims to connect with others in a journey and the mode of travelling through the reader's imagination is the gift that writers have.
Conclusion.
*Writing is a gift, writing connects, writing communicates, writing creates, writing is a love story that brings one human to another, sharing thoughts, conceptions, sorrows and listening as she shares all that. Writing is a gift.*

If I was to Choose.
What makes us humane? What qualities as humans make us all humans? If you were to choose your most desirable qualities what will they be?
What Makes Us Humans?
We laugh, sing, dance, and speak in different languages, we write and read, and we give birth to young ones like us, but these things we all do are done by most animals too. What makes us different from animals? What makes us Humane?
*If I was to choose.*
Love
*It has a name but can not be explained*
*It can be felt but can not be explained*
It can be said to anyone but not all can explain it.
*It is the most beautiful thing one could feel.*
if I was to choose I'd choose love, why I still can't explain that feeling of loving someone or being loved by someone I just feel it. I think that is what makes love so beautiful because if it can be explained then it will be less to things that make us humane, love makes humans.
Take a mother's love, for example, mother's love is pure, it endures, comforts is caring, and is everything, and yet that feeling can't be explained even by mothers. And we all feel that sense of attachment to families and friends and to people we don't even know, a feeling that comes from deep within, a quality that makes us uniquely human. Sadly a lot of people can switch it on and off now, and that makes humans not humans again and as some might say '*when love is switched off it makes humans turn into animals.*
Joy.
What is there again if we don't have happiness and joy? If I were to choose I'd choose to be happy, this is one quality in humans that makes us stand out, animals get excited but what makes us different is that ours is joy. This quality on its own is unique and would make us succeed not just at work but in life.
As humans because of our imperfect state worries take over us more than joy, but this basic quality that makes us humans very much differentiates us from animals and their way of life.
*When you are joyful you are free and who doesn't want freedom, freedom is something we all crave as humans and being humane as we can be we crave joy too.*
Patience.
Composure, keeping your cool in the face of anything that comes your way. This quality is associated with so many qualities or qualities that are synonymous with it. Being patient makes you kind and makes you very considerate of others understanding everyone and every situation you find yourself in.
If I was to choose without blinking twice I'd pick patience, cause when you are patient you tend to think and that gives you purpose, and with purpose, you will be diligent in whatever endeavour you find yourself.
Conclusion.
*If I was to choose, I'd choose love because what more can make us more humane, I'd choose joy because I want to be happy and have this keen sense of gratification and patience so I can be more understanding and have a real purpose.*

E-Publishing And How It Connects You With People.
Physically as humans, we all want to connect with people, and now that the world we live in is at its virtual peak we want more of that connection. The virtual world now connects us and makes us interact more with a larger audience, and we get feedback and ratings in just seconds.
*E-Publishing not only gets your work seen by others but it connects you more to a wider range of new audiences. And not that traditional publishing doesn't get a wider range of audiences, it's just that it takes time and a lot of work put in before people get to see your beautiful work. E-publishing on the other hand connects you with the audience in seconds and less work is required.*
A journalist once said to me that "*Our generation has it easy, we get to publish magazines and books in just hours and at times with no editors whatsoever, we have it all easy for us".* He explained how their own was, you write an article and about three to five different persons need to edit it first before others process and then publish it.
At this point am like yes, '*we all got it easy'*, and am happy we do.
Reaching To A New Audience.
That's the idea at first for an author's craft to be seen by as many as possible, E-publishing does exactly that for authors, it brings their craft to a new and larger audience. E-Publishing brings authors and new audiences into one room, and the beauty of it is when they are in the same room, the audience gets to see what is in the author's mind. E-publishing connects you to the world, here on reading.cash we get to see that connection first hand, and E-publishing not only makes us audiences alone but a family too.
Editing Is Possible After Publishing.
The traditional way of publishing had editors that go through your work and after publishing you don't have a chance again to edit any typo, republishing a book because of a typo can be a very costly affair. E-Publishing makes editing possible after publishing at no cost at all.
Longer Shelf Live.
We all want this, after posting a picture or publishing an article we want people to still be liking and commenting on those things we posted even after months of posting. E-Publishing is like dropping an object in an open space no matter how long it takes it will just be moving in that open space, books on shelves get old and tear out, but ebooks are just there in open space and can be accessed from anywhere in the world by anyone.
We now see all those who published their books the traditional way are bringing those books back to the virtual world now, by turning them into ebooks.
Keep Tracks of User's Behaviour And Distribution.
The traditional way of publishing makes authors wait for months or even years before they get a review or a comment from the book, E-publishing made it easy for authors to get comments and suggestions from a wide range of distinct audiences within seconds.
And within weeks or days, you can track how many people have downloaded and read your book, with the help of E-Publishing you can track the distribution and other online strategies as well to help you reach a larger audience.
My Conclusion.
We have it all easy, we get to publish our articles, edit them, publish them, rework them again if there are any typos, track your sales and distribution, and we sure have it all easy.

Who Would Have Thought?
He is simple, kind, and shy, some will say he is very timid, he is known to be very respectful and loves kids. But all this was about to come to an end, that timid young boy that everyone loves and adores is about to transform into something that will scare the whole town.
He is known to be very shy when around a lot of people, but he was a bit talkative when he is with his friends. And his girlfriend Ladia made him talk a lot too, she is the only girl he has ever loved and they won't have been together if not because she told him that she was in love with him too and wanted to be with him.
They have been together for a year six months now and everyone in town knows of this beautiful relationship they had going. He was a very jealous guy but no one knew about it because he never said anything and since everyone in the town was aware of the relationship he didn't have to show that he was jealous or made it clear to everyone that he was jealous. He was crazy about his girl that it got to his head that he found himself thinking about her all the time and he loved every second of it.
Jackson The City Boy.
Jackson is a young city boy who came home for the holidays with his parents, his dad was rich and to everyone Jackson had everything he needed, he was just that perfect kid. On a Thursday afternoon, Jackson was coming back from seeing his Auntie and on the way, he met Ladia and her best friend, right there and then it hit him, it was love at first sight because she was everything a guy can dream of about in any girl. And being the city boy he was he approached and they greeted and he started going far to her because she was already in a beautiful relationship. And she made that clear to Jackson but he won't give up, he thought he was trying to play hard to get ( something I think every guy has when a lady says no, we think in our head that she is saying try harder).
Ladia doesn't like going out again because she knows he will be following her all day long, after about a week she finally opens up to her boyfriend and told him everything, he saw that she was off lately he kept asking but she kept it a secret, told him she can handle. He laughed at first and said Jackson can do that to him because he was aware that they are together with Ladia, he held her hands and they went out looking for Jackson to tell him that they are together.
It was after 7 pm, it was dark and gloomy, Ladia and her boyfriend were searching for Jackson, and at first, her boyfriend was laughing and smiling all the way through and on seeing Jackson seating all alone close to an abandoned building, he then held her hand more tightly so Jackson can see what's going on. Jackson laughed so hard that tears started dripping down his cheek, and looked at Ladia pointing to her boyfriend and said
"*This is the low life you are with, this shy pathetic loser, what does this loser has to give? He is a complete loser" and continued laughing out loud.*
Who Would Have thought?
The anger and jealousy that is now in him can't be controlled, and with tears in his eyes he saw a log of wood just close by and carried it and hit Jackson on the head with it, and he fell to the ground with the same log of wood he continue hitting him with it till he could breathe no more. Who would have thought that this shy young boy will turn into a killer?
My Conclusion.
Don't let a situation reach a point where it will bring out the best in you, because we all have that beast that is kept tamed and chained just waiting for the right moment to come out. You can love like crazy but don't let jealousy get the best of you.

Set Clear Goals.
What is that one thing that pushes you? What is that you want to change or improve on?
Everyone is driven by ideas in their head that they will be better or that they want to be better. In my part of the world they go about setting goals and making resolutions every year but going into the first few months of the year they end up backing down and saying to themselves and everyone that they can't do it anymore or just give up.
I think of setting clear goals as a professional diver, a diver knows first how deep the pool or body of water he will be jumping into, he knows the height he needs to be at to be able to achieve an attainable acrobatic style, he knows everything that will bring him success and not harm him as a diver. Similarly, Setting clear goals should be the same as what a diver does, know the goals you are setting, know how far you can go for those set goals, in short, know your surroundings and most importantly your goals.
Clear But Specific.
It's that simple, most people don't go as far as achieving their goals because they were not specific with them. 'I want to achieve something this year', that's a goal but its not specific, but when someone says I want to make 1BCH in a month, that is a clear goal and he will work hard towards that, putting in mind that every single article he publishes he knows and has full confidence that he will be visited by the green BOT for probably the whole three days.
*So set clear yet very specific goals you want to achieve and not let yourself or any doubt that you can't achieve them.*
You Have Weaknesses, Acknowledge Them.
We all are imperfect, or as some will say perfectly imperfect, so being imperfect we have weaknesses. And as perfectly imperfect as we all are we tend to not admit to ourselves that we have weaknesses, but as a diver, he has practised or has been taught what to do, he can't attempt something he has never done or maybe he saw a more fellow diver doing but sticks to what he knows and can do.
As humans, we set up goals and want to achieve those goals, when we acknowledge that we have weaknesses is a step toward reaching that set goal. So be that diver that knows his strength and weaknesses and your goals will be as mild or as simple as they are supposed to be. So m.ake it a practice to know how far you can go and the strength you have to carry out anything that is placed right in front of you.
Make It Fun For You.
It's your goal to achieve, if you succeed then hurrah to you and if because of some reason you don't, then why not make it fun for yourself, enjoy yourself while accomplishing those goals. Make it fun and exciting, when you see divers you will know that they are enjoying what they are doing and enjoyment makes their goals easy to achieve.
My Conclusion.
*Make it your aim to accomplish all set goals, be clear and specific, make it fun for yourself and know your limits, know how far you can go and your set goals will be achieved with all ease. And write down your goals to remind yourself every day.*
*Thanks for reading.*

My First Novel Ever.
As the rain poured, she could feel it tingling down her face and her red colour dress becoming wet, the blood in her hands began washing off and finally for the first time she felt free and to her, there is nothing like it.
It all started fifteen years ago when her whole family were killed by a mob, and De Grease the head of a mafia gang took her in as his own. He taught her how to fight and thought her the act of manipulation and made her become a professional prostitute for the De Grease family. With all she has learned she could get any amount without even haggling, she made a lot of money for the De Grease family and because of that everyone liked her, and she was found to be with.
She was called by a client, who she has been seeing for quite some time, and this call, this time was specially different, because is about to change everything she has ever believed in and maybe put the one thing she has ever loved in danger.
" *Everything you know and believe in and the people you trust and make thousands for everyday have been lying to you your whole life*," he says to her. And smiling while she goes to pour a drink for herself, and with a beautiful and seductive smile she asked; "*What do you mean by that?".*
" *The De Grease has been lying to you your whole life, he is the mob that had your family killed because he was told that your dad who has been working for him for years was stealing from him*"; He explained to her.
He went on to explain everything to her and now all she has been hiding and trying to keep dwindle has finally eemerged, revenge. She has always thought of killing every single person responsible for making her or putting her in the situation she is in now. And now that is back, she wants to kill every one of them.
With tears in her eyes she made her way to the door carrying her coat hung on what seemed to be a chair, as she opens the door he said once more; "*They know*". Turning to him with her hand on the open door handle she said;
" *They know what?".*
*"They know you have a daughter*". He added.
Enraged and with tears running down her cheeks she made her way through the hall of the hotel down the lobby and out of the hotel.
As she drives back home all she could think of is how to protect her 4-year-old daughter whom she thought she was hiding from the De Grease and the only solution she could think of is vengeance, killing them all so they won't come after her daughter. A desperate mother going after a mafia empire with no plan at all, but doing this sets her free, gives her a purpose and protect her daughter from the world she has been hiding her from.
De Grease has four sons and her being like a family knows where they will be at and the exact time, the first she killed in a club owned by their father, the second at his home and the third she killed in one of their father's warehouse, and she made sure she left no traces or trigger anything so as not to warn De Grease himself so he won't go into hiding because she is saving him for last.
It's 29 minutes past ten pm and the sky is changing and then lighting it's about to rain, she made her way to the car and drives to the last person she has always thought of killing but never knew it will be the person she calls father. She made it to the big mansion where De Grease is and he welcomes her in and they went into the study, where he has a library and the artefacts that he has collected over the years. He sat down on his chair and she stood close to a dagger as she gently rubs on it and she asked;
" *Why, why did you take me in after killing my entire family?"*
Surprised he stood up and walked toward her and as he was coming she carried the dagger and pierce right through his stomach and crying she says; " *Am sorry but I have to protect my daughter"*
Going down his kneel she goes down with him holding and pushing in the dagger and as he struggles for his life she keeps pushing the dagger in and taking his last breath she says "*All your sons are dead too".*
It's raining outside and walking outside with blood in her as the rain poured, she could feel it tingling down her face and her red colour dress becoming wet, the blood in her hands began washing off and finally for the first time she felt free and to her, there is nothing like it.

Wrote the whole novel when I was younger.
This is just a summary of the whole thing.
What I Have Learned As A Young Writer.
What will be the perfect article for you to read? What is the perfect story for you to write? Think of it and write it.
What makes an article great? What makes a book great that when you start reading you don't want to stop? We all want to attract people with basically everything, what we wear, how we talk, how we do things and even what we write. So how do writers remain attractive and keep attracting people to read their books and articles?
BE HONEST WHEN YOU WRITE.
For me, most times being honest when writing a story that concerns me or talks about me was a big obstacle, but I as read other books and articles and saw how those authors were honest, I could then see the connection they ( authors ) starts having or are having with the readers and that felt right.
So be honest when you write, the reason why we write is that we want the world to see what we have, for them to feel what we felt when writing and understand what we wrote, so you being honest not only draws your audience to you but it connects you with them, they will be able to feel what you feel and can see the sincerity and honesty you put in.
*Being Honest can be challenging and you sure will feel very uncomfortable about it, but being honest more than you can comfortably be draws people to you.*
**BE REAL, LETTING YOUR CHARACTERS COME TO LIFE.**
The thought of some writers is that; "it is just a story I made up " with that idea in mind they write without bringing their characters to life, giving it life and making the audience see those characters as they are seeing them.
Give life to your characters, make your readers go on an imaginary journey in your head to see how you see those characters or how you want those characters to be seen and you keeping them as real as possible.
PROTECT YOUR WRITING TIME.
When am tired is difficult for me to think because my whole body is tired and that includes the brain that thinks when writing. So I made out time when am not tired so I can be able to think and write from the heart, and that time is protected because I do nothing before that period so I won't be tired.
And sometimes even when am so tired I still have to write so I can be inspired, because me waiting or putting me in a mood to get inspiration on what to write becomes difficult, so I have to force me to write sometimes to get inspiration.
EITHER YOU KNOW OR YOU DON'T; THE ENDING.
Most young writers like me, find it challenging to write without an ending, but I found out that, it challenges me more not to know the ending because it will be me adding ideas to an inevitable well thought out ending. I don't know about you, but not knowing my ending makes me think more about what to write and see how I can connect with the audience.
My Concluding Thought.
*You don't need to show everything to your readers, just write and let them do the imagining, you need to include only necessary things and not cloud your readers with unnecessary details. So protect your writing time, be honest and be as real as you can.*

A Newbie With Writer's Advice.
How will you like to write an intriguing article that makes readers want more of you?
For my first Article here on reading.cash, I just thought I will write something about writing to help new ones and others in writing articles that are productive and worth reading.
If you are here for the money you will be getting if you write an article every day then for the first few weeks or even months that you start you won't enjoy the platform (read.cash). Because you would be so much discouraged when the green Bot does not visit you and that can be very frustrating and am saying this from experience.
So that's the first thing when will be talking about, Write from the Heart.
Write From The Heart.
Or be in love with why you write, you need to love something before you will be able to do it with all your heart, as a new and young writer I can tell you how frustrating it is when you are writing an article and all you think about is how much money you will get from that article, I mean there is nothing wrong about thinking of the money that's why we are here but if that is all you think of then you will be discouraged when you don't get to see anything at the long run.
So be in love with writing not because of the money but because you love it and you won't be disappointed if you don't get tipped. Think of this platform as an acting career, an actor's first few roles he won't be recognised not because he didn't give in his best, no, but because people want to see more of him to believe in him and that he is good and when he quits because of not being recognised and given the credit he thinks he deserves then that is when frustration and self-rejection come in. But when he loves acting and doesn't mind if he doesn't get recognised now then everyone will get to see more of him later on and the credit he deserves will be given to him. Read.cash is like that acting career love writing and you won't be disappointed at the end.
Don't Be Bulky Be Small And Simple.
You don't need to write very long articles and end up writing out of the content or just repeating the same idea on a topic over and over again but try to small and very understandable articles. When you are writing about something you've made research on, you will be having a lot of ideas on what to write and want to write it all, all you need to do is pick out the main point and try developing on that. There are a lot of other articles that readers will read so your article should be small and simple.
Write three minutes to four minutes read articles, if you are new you will say that is no problem, but when you spend a week writing three minutes read articles every day it becomes war, some days will come when writing that three minutes read becomes so difficult because you will be out of ideas. For you to be small and simple you will need to write three minutes read at most four minutes read.
Pictures Insertion.
I think images speak a lot about your article or should I say your thought on the topic you have written. There are ways that images and videos talk to us that have this lasting effect on our minds than just words and words. So you can just take like three to five minutes to either take a picture that speaks to your audience about your topic or there are provisions provided by this site (read.cash) that can help a lot with image insertion.
And there is a beautiful provision made by the site to help in the image insertion that will help us pick pictures that speak to the audience.
My Conclusion.
Love whatever it is that you do, don't do it because someone is watching or for the gain but for that love you have for it. Don't be scared of disappointments because they will surely come your way, so just keep your eyes on that love and the rest If it will come your way.
Thanks for reading.
