5 Unconventional Writing Habits That Boosted My Income by 300%
When I first started writing online, I struggled to get traction. The competition was fierce, and it felt like every niche was saturated. But once I embraced a few unconventional habits, my writing career took a dramatic turn. Within a year, my income skyrocketed by 300%. Here’s exactly what I did — and how these habits transformed my writing, my mindset, and ultimately, my bank account.
1. Writing as If I’m Speaking to a Friend (and Only One)
This one sounds simple, but it’s a game-changer. I stopped treating my articles like I was delivering a lecture or writing for an academic journal. Instead, I wrote as if I was having a personal conversation with just one person — my reader. Every sentence became more relaxed, more human, and more engaging.
By crafting my articles with a “friend” in mind, I noticed my readers were responding with more likes, comments, and shares. They felt connected to my voice, like I was speaking directly to them — not some faceless crowd.
Pro Tip: If you're struggling with this, imagine a specific person while writing — someone who genuinely needs to hear what you have to say. Your writing will become instantly more relatable.
