These can all be writers. What is your idea of a writer? Maybe if you think about this problem, you can also take concrete steps and slowly start to move towards the goal of becoming a writer. From your words, I feel a sense of powerlessness, and another is that I am afraid that I will not succeed even if I work hard. In fact, many people are in this place. We all hope to succeed, but we are more afraid of failure. In the face of failure, success seems far away and ridiculous.
When we work hard, we hope to succeed, but there will be two final results, one is success and the other is failure. If we finally succeed through hard work, then all these efforts are useful, valuable and worthwhile. However, if after several years or even more than ten years and decades of efforts, but without success, then all our previous efforts are in vain. So one of the reasons why many people find it difficult to start is that they are afraid that they will still get nothing after their efforts.
Of course, each of us has a dream. We want to be writers, engineers, successful businessmen, or just ordinary and happy workers. These are our dreams. There are many events in life that prevent us from walking on the road of hope and achieving the results we want in our hearts. At this time, we will feel lost, confused, powerless or helpless.
At this moment, I think mentality is very important. If we have an idea in our hearts, maybe I am doomed to accomplish nothing, maybe my dream is just a dream, and I think the final result may be that bad result. But if the inner thought is, no matter what the final result is, I just like to do it, even if I have done it for three or five decades, I still like it, because I have achieved nothing in the end. Even if the final result is really unsatisfactory and nothing is achieved, because we are getting along with the people we like and doing what we like, the process itself is very healing and makes us feel happy and satisfied.
