So, how important is writing in the world? It is VERY important and your writing abilities can make or break your career. No one wants to hire someone with a lack of communication skills … imagine this: No communication skills equals loss opportunities.


As horrible as it may seem, the truth is within the print. We see words everywhere we go, we are told to learn new words to expand our vocabulary. Individuals with exceptional writing skills are making their way up the corporate ladders because they communicate the needs of their businesses. For instance, will you buy a computer from an IT company that has an issue explaining the benefits of the purchase to you? No.
The answer is no in many aspects because writing skills are the basis of any business making progress in America as well as across the world. The ‘perfect’ writer is in all of us if we learn how to develop our own voices. My voice is a conversational – informal tone in which I can relate to anyone reading what I have to say. I do not want to write as if I am an authority to you; we are the same people, but we have different interests in mind.

Writing Obsession

Improve your writing skills by practicing in a journal or carrying a notebook around with you. I’m obsessed with writing …words….books…pens…paper and any stationary materials I can use to emboss words. Someone with an obsession over words will naturally follow a career of writing, right? Right. A writer can enter marketing, IT, science, advertising, and any artistic field that uses imagination or persuasion. Think about it…you can do anything you want to if you know how to write.
You Can Get A Job Anywhere If You Can Read And Write
I remember listening to an upperclassmen say
“You can get a job anywhere if you can read and write.”
I laughed at him that day, but it is true. If you know what you’re saying through your writing, a business desperately needs you to speak for them. Improve your writing skills today so you can be an asset somewhere in the world. Copywriters, technical writers, and freelance writers are all over the globe. We, writers, are changing the way businesses operate just by the use of our words.
Take hold of that sort of power by practicing everyday and you will see what I am talking about. To be honest, I used to have issues with my communication skills until I started speaking with people the same way I would write to them. Now, I’m fluent in many of my conversations.
