How Medium Uplifts Our Passion For Writing!

In less than two months, Medium will celebrate its 10th anniversary since the official launch of the platform in 2012!

I vividly remember how Medium links appeared in my search results ten years ago. The internet became better, more intriguing, with Medium offering a service we were all missing but always hoping to discover.

A new high-quality writing platform was out there and soon evolved into one of the top 100 internet locations in terms of traffic.

Sure, corporations and high-profile influencers use Medium as well. Still, Medium always presents a fair approach, a process that adds value to the user and creates a better internet for everyone.

A little more than a year ago, I started my Medium adventure, and while I never thought I could become a writer on Medium, I still published 200 articles so far!

I know I am not perfect as a writer. Regardless, I feel proud when an article exceeds my expectations once in a while, and Medium attributed a lot to this improvement.

Facilitating Progress

What motivates us is progress. Once in a while, we achieve better results and discover we can outperform our standards and become better.

I used to blame my lack of fluency when struggling to express my thoughts, but this is only an excuse that blocks writers from maturing.

I’m not a native English speaker, and occasionally I will not deliver the demanded results. Still, writing on Medium helped me increase quality and perform adequately.

Yet, sometimes, once in a while, we are all surpassing our expectations. Sometimes, we reach this level, where we read our work again perhaps a week later and feel proud of what we accomplished.
