in Hive Reachout4 days ago
Greetings Dear friends, I am @ntul001. Am so happy to write something really Good here in response to the community of hive reachout weekly prompt week66 Tagged ''Your Writing Formula on '' To begin with How I Turn Life and Knowledge Into Words Firstly I see everything as something to write about.As a writer, I have learnt to see life differently.

Every experience, encounter,challenge, conversation holds a hidden story lesson. Whether it’s a bus ride, an argument, a random observation, I treat it like material for the next piece. Writing has trained my mind to stay curious. I no longer wait for inspiration I live inside it. I see everything as potential content, I never run out of ideas. Even simple things, like eating noodles or watching a child play, can become a paragraph or a post. Life itself becomes my library of content.I focus on the message I want to pass rather waiting for an inspiration or a big event,maybe create a seen.Also note that Writing isn't always smooth. There are times when my brain just refuses to cooperate. Instead of forcing it, I’ve learned to pause. I take a walk, listen to music, or even sleep. Boredom or mental locks are natural and breaks help me return with a fresh mind. I've noticed that pushing through fatigue leads to uninspired writing. A quick break can turn a dry paragraph into a vibrant one.

Writing is creative, and creativity sometimes needs space to breathe. So I don’t guilt trip myself I step back and return stronger.I write from former experiences Some of my best writings are born from past experiences. Whether it’s something I struggled with, succeeded at, learned the hard way, I bring those moments into my writing. It helps me write more honestly and connect better with readers. People relate more when they sense truth in your words. My experiences give me stories, emotions, and reflections that textbooks can’t provide. They are my raw materials unfiltered and real. Sharing from experience also heals me and sometimes encourages others going through similar seasons.I write out of what I’ve studied Aside from experiences, I also rely on knowledge I’ve gained from reading, research and school. I believe good writing is not just emotional it should also be informed.

I take time to learn about my topic, especially when writing something educational or technical. Whether it’s health, faith, or social issues, I write from a base of study. This helps me add weight and authority to my words. It also helps me improve as a writer because every study session sharpens my mind and builds my confidence to express more deeply.Before I begin writing, I pause to ask myself: What exactly do I want the reader to walk away with? It’s easy to write for writing's sake, but for me, purpose comes first. Every story or blog I create carries a message a lesson, encouragement, warning, or even a laugh.

If my writing doesn't leave something behind, then I feel it hasn't done its job. That clarity helps me avoid unnecessary distractions in my writing. Whether it’s a personal story or an educational topic, I write with the reader in mind always aiming for impact.Once I know the message I want to pass, I outline the major points. This gives my writing structure and direction. I break my ideas into small parts and ask What key things must I say to make this meaningful? Even when I'm writing freely, this step helps me stay organized. It also saves me time when editing because I already know what belongs and what doesn’t. Picking out the key points makes it easier for readers to follow and easier for me to write with confidence and flow.
