Just my thoughts #0569

The key to writing well is to write frequently and revise consistently. No matter how complex an idea is, even a very short sentence often reflects our thoughts in a strangely organized manner. A good article is not defined by being well-written, but by undergoing extensive edits. Great passages are not simply written because they contain exceptional ideas; rather, they are often rewritten and crafted. Even the best ideas require multiple revisions and refinements in order to effectively share and influence others. Great ideas and quality writing are created, not bestowed. The ripple effect of well-constructed sentences on the world is beyond our imagination. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”

The advice to concentrate on one thing instead of trying to excel at many is valid, as it’s also challenging to master a single skill. If you neglect the other essential background abilities necessary to enhance that one skill, you will be unable to overcome your limitations. For a top-level skill to thrive, the supporting average abilities for that skill must also develop concurrently. Concentration should not be an excuse to avoid or ignore what’s important. - Joseph’s “just my thoughts”
