Writers play mind games, not just tell stories

Storytelling is the most powerful way to put ideas into the world

Knowing this is important for writers because writing is about psychology, not just content. Understanding people makes your words more powerful.

If your writing doesn’t connect with emotions, it’s not what the world is looking for.

It should either make people feel something or make them agree while reading, at the least. In some cases, it might even lead to passionate comments. On the internet, everyone is trying to grab everyone’s attention.

As a writer, strive to touch your readers’ feelings. Even so-called “informative” articles should aim to please your audience.

Write non-fiction like fiction to make your content stick with readers, following the style of writers like Robin Sharma.

The way you express yourself makes your content special.

No messages are entirely new; it’s the messengers that bring freshness. Become a messenger your readers won’t forget.

A simple idea can seem significant, and a valuable idea might appear less impressive. It all depends on how you present it.

Readers vary in their understanding, moods, and culture. Each reader is unique in every possible way.

How will you write a single article that suits everyone, or at least the majority?

Understanding psychology unlocks the door to people's hearts.
