Writing as a tool
Writing is a way of communicating. When you use clear, credible and persuasive language, you don't have to worry about a beautiful sentence or fancy words.
- If you are not clear from the start, you will end up wasting a lot of time clarifying your message. Aim to get it right from the start.
- You can write the wrong thing that will land you up in an argument. If you didn't mean it that way, don't write it that way. Write what you mean.
- Ineffective writing can cause lost opportunities.

Clear Writing is a Time Saver
A writing habit most of us have is to write and send what comes into our head 90% of the time.
A good writing habit to develop is the careful reassessment of your post, reply, or article and keenness to details.
Understand that your time is of importance and other people think the same. Do not let your valuable time be wasted because of a misunderstood statement that could have been avoided in the first place.

To Become A Better Writer, Become A Listener - Darius Foroux
Becoming a better writer
You can become a better writer by simply becoming more aware of your surroundings.
Writing is mostly strategy. And a big part of writing strategy lies in listening.
Writing is not about what you write
It's about how you write. Every person has a different way of expressing themselves. We can all spot which writers are fake and which ones are real. But when we write, we forget about that. We fail to think of someone a bit sceptical.
When you write, you need to be convinced of what you write. Your biggest enemy is not the sceptic, but the reader who calls you out by simply discarding your writing.
How to write something that catches people's attention
Start becoming aware of things that actually matter by listening to your friends, family, spouse, readers, and yourself.
See yourself as a researcher who is studying your particular subject. The better you observe the details of daily life, the better you can explain them.
