How Can I Write About Myself?

How Can I Write About Myself?There are many questions that I get when I am asked, 'How can I write about myself?' 'I am an author, what should I write about?' 'What is the best way to write about me?' I do not know where you are coming from or what you hope to accomplish, but I wish to be frank with you.While writing about yourself is easy in theory, it is not an easy task to do in practice because it requires a level of discipline and patience that is not always present. Now, I have found that writing about me is not difficult if I can accept the fact that I am a writer who has no limitations, if I can accept that I have limitations and how those limitations affect my life and my work and if I will allow myself to be in charge of these limitations and accept them as a part of who I am.When I was asked by one of my book authors, 'How can I write about myself?' I said this, 'I don't know, but I do know that if I write about myself that I can be honest about who I am and I can help oth ers understand who they are and how they can change their lives.For me, this is a huge sense of satisfaction and there is no way that I would allow myself to write about someone else that is not me. This is the most powerful tool I have ever discovered and I can't wait to use it to help people.'As a writer, it has become more clear to me that when I am writing about myself, it is because I have identified what needs to be changed and am addressing those needs in my own writing. In fact, it is usually the authors who are being interviewed who think that writing about themselves is the most effective. What they need to realize is that I am the one who has a lot to say and I am the one who has to stand in the spotlight.It has been said that when an author writes about themselves they are limiting themselves because they can't accept that the limits that they have been an obstacle in their ability to grow and to learn from their writing. So for me, writing about myself is like a five-mi nute exercise in honesty and transparency that helps me grow.So if you ask, 'How can I write about myself?' The best way is to write from your heart and begin to say what you really feel, to the point where it becomes second nature to you. Then, you must take the initiative to act on it because no one else will.You can't stop me. You can't limit me. I will continue to say what I think.
