For 30 days, you can live day after day.
30 days, you can also choose to be closer to your dreams.
In 30 days, as a novice, I wrote 14 new media articles, 1 summary articles and *** 15 articles, totaling more than 28,000 words.
In a high-quality official WeChat account, there are 5 articles and 4 previous articles, and 1 editors put forward suggestions for revision, which are being improved.
Everyone's life is not easy, and everyone can't let go. But sometimes all you need is a determination, a decision, and a sudden adrenaline rush.
Whatever. Let's get started.
When considering whether to sign up for a new media training camp organized by a high-quality WeChat official account, I am very entangled. My daughter has just entered primary school, but my son has not yet entered kindergarten. Taking care of them exhausted me. His official WeChat account is careless, and it is only updated once every ten and a half months or even more than one month. The training camp requires writing a manuscript in two days, which is simply an impossible task.
When I told my husband abroad that I wanted to sign up, he was against it. He knows I'm not easy. He told me to wait until he came back. Why do you have to push yourself like this?
But once the inner small flame is lit, how can it be easily extinguished!
I said I've been waiting for you for almost a year, and you haven't decided on your return date. Sorry, I don't want to miss it again, I can't wait!
I don't require homework 100% completion, and I don't require the quality of homework. I'm going to be at the bottom of all my classmates, as long as I'm a little better than myself.
This is what I really thought at the beginning.
In an instant, 30 days have passed. The achievements in these 30 days were beyond my dreams when I signed up.
However, more importantly, how precious these 30 days of experience are to me!
The training camp gathered a group of friends who really love words. Most people who are willing to find time to write after the media bonus period are out of pure love for words. Personally, I always think that people who love words are simpler and purer.
We are together, encouraging each other and patting each other for faster progress. Someone has published a manuscript, and we will be sincerely happy for the small partners who have published the manuscript, although we will also regret that our manuscript has not been published. Because we fully understand the excitement and satisfaction brought by the press release. Besides, writing should be a hundred schools of thought contend and a hundred flowers blossom.
Everyone in our group has something to learn. Some people are good at writing prose, some are good at writing novels, some are beautiful in writing, some are eloquent, some are emotional, and some take titles. In the process of peer review, we can learn from others' strengths and see our own shortcomings.
Walking side by side with my friends and watching everyone work so hard, I thought I would never finish my homework, so I had to bite the bullet and force myself to do it. Although this process is very painful, you can really feel your growth.
The first article I published on the official WeChat account was actually an article I just wrote a few days before I attended the training camp. I felt good about myself, and there was nothing wrong with it.
But when I want to learn from it, I see many shortcomings. The structure is unreasonable, and the content that has little to do with the theme accounts for too much space.
So I made a drastic change, changing the article with more than 3,000 words into 1000 words, and then published it.
In the article "Seventy-seven Days", I went to the movies the day I assigned my homework. The film is good, but the article has no clue. Because this hot spot has been chased by many people.
Finally, I thought of a topic and framework in the fragmented time, but the next day, on the way to send my daughter to school, I suddenly overturned all my ideas and started over.
Then the hard code word. I was interrupted countless times by a child and almost collapsed.
But I know that I must finish this hot draft on the same day, otherwise it will be difficult to publish it no matter how well written. What's more, my writing ability is limited, and I can only fight for time.
When I finally sent the manuscript out, my heart didn't relax. I expected the editor's reply, but I didn't wait. I was helpless.
And when I saw the editor reply that the manuscript passed, my tears almost came out.
Heaven and hell, that's all.
Because of the love in my heart, everything is worth it.
I know you have heard this sentence, but I still want to say it, because this is my 30-day personal experience.
Our team leader is Miss Cat from the Second Hospital, and friends who are familiar with this official WeChat account are no strangers to this name.
Originally, I thought the group leader was only responsible for commenting on homework, but I didn't expect the group leader to write the manuscript in two days like us.
Moreover, she commented that our homework was also in place. I remember an article in which I used "I don't think so" because I didn't want my point of view to be too strong after using three magnificent parallelism sentences. The group leader immediately said, "Of course not" should be used here, so that the tone of parallelism will not fall. I'll watch it later, really.
This is the skill. And this skill is by no means achieved overnight.
In fact, it is.
Miss Cat wrote an article called "It's not just the cleaners who get up at 4: 30 in the morning". Yes, she also gets up at 4: 30.
Going to work, taking care of children, writing, managing official WeChat accounts and other related matters can't be done without super self-discipline.
A few days ago, I participated in the micro-class of Miss Cat's writing. After class in the group at nine o'clock in the evening, Teacher Cat went to take care of the children before answering everyone's questions one by one.
The next morning, I was awakened by the wake-up bell at 6: 30, and I habitually turned on my mobile phone. I was surprised to see that Miss Cat had pushed the text version of her lecture the day before in the official WeChat account.
What you think of as success is only the result of other people's efforts day after day.
Looking back on the road I have traveled, I will not only remember the joys and sorrows, but also think about the gains and losses of these years.
At so many nodes in my life, what if I had made a different choice?
Now think about it, instead of recalling the past, evaluating gains and losses, and discussing success or failure, it is better to live every day that you can control now.
If you have a dream, pursue it.
If you have a chance, you will seize it.
Maybe you can't reach the other side of your dream in the end, but you won't regret it if you work hard. Besides, there are such beautiful scenery along the way.
On the road of chasing dreams, we go forward together.
