Everyone
wants to know how to get more attention for their work, but not everyone is
willing to do what it takes. The question you have to ask yourself is a simple
one, and yet, it’s profound and can change everything. Are you willing to do
what it takes?
If
yes, continue. If no, then stop reading now.
I
am glad you chose to continue reading.
What
follows is some tough love, but if you are serious about getting attention then
you’ll want to read this. Not all of what I listed below will apply to you, but
if one or two do then you’ll have something tangible to consider and work on –
if you choose to.
1 – You Haven’t
Admitted You Want Attention
Most
people fail to gain attention because they are not willing to admit to
themselves that they want it or at one time or another they did admit it, but
then gave up too soon.
“I’m
a writer. That’s what I do. People should read my work because I write and if
they don’t read it, I don’t care.”
Those
would be famous last words if anyone read them, but the writers who wrote them
never got enough attention for anyone to read them, much less care. Only when
you admit you truly want it will you be willing to do the work necessary to
gain it.
