# Embracing Writing: A Journey Beyond the 9 to 5 Grind
Written on
Chapter 1: The Struggle for Expression
Throughout my journey, I dedicated countless hours to earning my degrees. I navigated various 9 to 5 jobs across different sectors, sacrificing precious moments to establish myself as a professional.
I traveled great distances to achieve my objectives, often forgoing meals, leisure time, social gatherings, and vacations, all in pursuit of results. Yet, I find myself at a crossroads, contemplating a shift away from that grind to concentrate on writing articles for Medium.
Writing about my experiences, thoughts, and reflections has become a cherished pursuit. It invigorates me, filling me with energy, hope, and enthusiasm as I pour my innermost thoughts onto the page.
However, I often struggle to allocate sufficient time to express these ideas clearly and consistently. I recall a period when I abandoned journaling for years, which led to numerous challenges and left my mind in a state of paralysis, overwhelmed by complex worries. This experience has made it clear: stopping my writing equates to halting my thinking, and the repercussions of that are dire.
The pressing question arises: Can I fully depend on Medium, both ethically and financially?
If the answer is YES, what strategies can I adopt to enhance my writing abilities and fulfill Medium's expectations to achieve both my writing and financial aspirations?
Conversely, if the answer is NO, how can I maintain authenticity in my writing while dedicating adequate time to it?
Your insights are invaluable to me, and I appreciate your time and support.
Wishing you a wonderful reading experience!
