Steemit Engagement Challenge S7W1: The work of my dreams

in Steem Venezuela2 years ago (edited)
Hello, dear friends at Steem Venezuela! I was in my dream career until March 2021 when the pandemic broke out and I had to come back to India. However, that gave me another opportunity to enter into my childhood dream of writing and I have no regrets that I am out of a job right now.

Thanks to my friend @josevas217 who brought me to this contest where I shall have the opportunity to tell you all about my journey as a writer. I have done exactly what William S. Burroughs says.

“You do an awful lot of bad writing in order to do any good writing. Incredibly bad. I think it would be very interesting to make a collection of some of the worst writing by good writers.”

―William S. Burroughs

Someone has rightly said that "when you give more importance to your dreams than your fears, miracles can happen." Dreams are necessary, but they can only come true if you dream big with all your heart. Only then will you be able to achieve your big dream.

As students, we dream of scoring good marks, making good friends, getting support from family, and making it big in life, and we think about our future dreams. Like others, I too dreamed big and wanted to be a sportsman and write stories.

Dreams play an important role in shaping our future. It is rightly said that "dreams play a big role in achieving your targets in real life." So if you have a dream, then set it as your goal and work hard to achieve it. Though it is much easier to say than to do, if you really work hard to achieve it, you will surely be able to do so.

So, like many others who want to advance their careers and fly high in the sky, I had a few dreams as a writer since I was a child. In fact, I wanted to become a sportsman and a writer, and when I began a traveling career as a marketing professional and traveled in different countries, I wanted to write and publish a best-seller travel book.

However, that was not to be, as my father wanted me to become an engineer like himself. I am a peace-loving person, but that doesn't mean I'm an introvert and don't like to open up to everyone, so I told my father about my dreams. He immediately disapproved of them. But did that stop me? Yes, it did, but only for a short while. ᶦᵐᵃᵍᵉˢ ᶦⁿ ᵃ ᵈᶦˢᵗᵃⁿᵗ ᶜᵒᵘⁿᵗʳʸ

I know how to express my feelings, and I have discovered in the last few years that I am good at writing fiction as well. I completed my engineering and management degrees, but that writer was sitting somewhere inside me, so I started writing technical and management-related articles.

Whenever I was alone, I always thought, was it really worth my time? But I immediately got rid of these feelings, as they made me even more determined to become a writer. But I soon realized that writing was not as easy as I thought. However, I started writing for local newspapers and magazines at a young age and found it a good way to release my stress. That's how I started writing.

Later, when I started writing on Steemit, I found that I could write about different topics, although I'm not good at cryptocurrency-related topics. However, I am hopeful because one learns them gradually, so I will do that as well.

Being a marketing professional, it was not at all difficult for me to communicate, interact, and convince people of my views, but it was not so easy for me to write. But things are improving now, and writing has become a way of life for me. In fact, it has become more than a passion for me now, and I want to make it part of my professional life.

Apart from writing management-related and technical posts, I also love to write stories and will soon be writing my own travel book. My wife is completely supportive of my travel book, although she doesn't like my involvement in online writing.

After only pursuing career goals and becoming a professional at some point in our lives, I still found myself wanting. That's why it's important for me to combine my dream of being successful professionally with my desire to be a writer. I was willing to work hard to achieve these goals in order to make my dream career a reality. However, the layoff provided me with the opportunity, but I probably missed at least one year of getting started. But as they say, "Better late than never." I am writing now and making slow progress toward my desired goal.

"In a wider perspective, I am willing to take a big view to make my life successful because I can become what I think about." Yes, our thoughts and dreams have the power to make our dreams a reality if we believe in them and work diligently to achieve them. I did that, and I did it honestly, and to top it all off, my destiny was pulling me in that direction.

I dream of love, success, and an abundance of money, although money is not the primary object at this point in time, and I am more than sure one day I will be able to achieve them all. I will go back to my job, but I am sure I will pursue my career in writing, as it has given me a lot of peace of mind.

Saludos amigo.

Me alegra que no te hayas rendido y que a pesar de que te especializaste en el campo de la ingeniería y administración, nunca abandonaste ese deseo de ser escritor y actualmente estas dándole libertad a esa pasión y en steemit has encontrado ese espacio en el que puedes ser tu y desarrollar con toda autonomía tu pasión por la escritura.

Long live the letters and fictional stories then, long live the forced stops that make us yes or yes let out what is sitting in a corner and we don't let it flow. Things always happen for a reason and since I started reading his stories I knew he had a lot of material for a writer.

Que vivan las letras y los cuentos de ficción entonces, que vivan las paradas obligadas que nos hacen si o si dejar salir lo que está sentadito en un rincón y no dejamos fluir. Las cosas siempre suceden por algo y desde que yo empecé a leer sus cuentos supe que tenía mucha madera de escritor @dove11

So kind of you, I know you're too busy so you seldom get a chance to read your notification besides being a mom makes it even more difficult. But I love the way you responds to my posts and comments. Love you for your beautiful comments. My best wishes.

Hola amigo, es.un placer leer tu publicación, me agrada saber que estas encaminado en tu sueño de escribir. Disfruto cada escrito tuyo, realmente manejas bien la ficción, eres muy bueno para plasmar imágenes literarias.
Esperaré ese libro de viajes, seguramente lo acompañaras de muchas imágenes interesantes, así como de un escrito impecable.
Después de todo, la pandemia aunque limitó muchas cosas, también dio posibilidades de.otras Cosas.
También dejé mi trabajo con la pandemia, y aún cuando ya estaba aquí en Steemit fue gracias a la pandemia que me dediqué más tiempo a la plataforma, y ya vez, con responsabilidades aquí, pero con gusto.
Saludos, que ese libro que tienes en mente surja pronto.

Thank you so much dear friend. I know my book will have to wait because there is a lot of work to do and places to visit which will not be possible until the the things come back to normal. I thank you for all the support you have provided to me to reach me to the point where I am on this platform. My best wishes!

I love that you are a writer. We can know, learn and understand a lot thanks to some defiant and funny writings by the authors. Best wishes to you.

Greetings friend @ dove11

Being a writer is very interesting, however, most parents don't like it because they don't see it as a profession of "economic" benefit, so they make us go down another, more commercial path. I'm glad you're back on your writing path and bring out that dreamer in you again.

Thanks for joining the contest.
