DO YOU KNOW why? Why is writing a burden for some people, but instead a fun activity for others? Are famous writers whose works are translated into dozens of languages ​​and read by tens of millions of people around the world burdened with writing — at least they have experienced it? Do journalists who work every day have to write, regard writing as a burden or a fun activity?

Within five or six working days, journalists generally write two stories each day. Ideally, he should also read news written by other journalists in other media to add information or find out information that has not been presented. Ideally, a journalist also reads books, not only to increase his knowledge of a topic but also to increase his writing skills. Is the work always enjoyable throughout the day, or is it that in one day or in just a few hours, writing work becomes a burden so you are not excited to do it?

This is not only related to writing block but is there a condition in which a writer feels a burden when he moves his hand over the keys? He had no shortage of ideas, had no trouble putting his ideas down. It's just that the burden is there and interferes with writing activities — although not permanently. If the burden is more dominant so it is permanently disturbing, perhaps it cannot produce a compelling piece of writing.

THAT laughter is one of the therapies to reduce stress is recognized by all psychologists and laypeople. But getting people to laugh is a burden to a comedian — at least there are times when he feels the task becomes a burden. For a professional in any field, that burden should not be permanent. Because if it is a burden every time you do a job, it means that he doesn't love the job, there is no passion there.

That's how the writer feels. That burden becomes the smallest part compared to the passion that rages every writing. The burden that comes — whether it is related to writing or other reasons — can fall on anyone. In several conversations with well-known writers, they also admit that the occasional burdens come. There are writers who even use that burden as motivation to produce quality writing.

So, for the first time, you really have to love writing. The belief must be built that writing is a fun activity, regardless of whether it is an amateur or a professional activity. Even professional writers were originally amateurs who experienced a lot of burdens.

Even if it becomes a burden at times, it must be lifted like a weight lifter who is accustomed to weights on a certain scale. When a load of several kilograms becomes daily food, then he is not bothered by that load in a competition.

When that love is present and that _passion_ exists, even in situations of burden either because of the writing activity itself or because of any problem outside of writing activities, sometimes it can produce interesting writing, at least I have experienced that. []
