Your Medium Journey

A poem about the struggles of being new to Medium

You join Medium to write and earn

But what you don't know is, it takes time for things to turn

So you wait and you wait, but it doesn’t seem to work for you

Earning just $10 a month, won't make all your dreams come true

Just as you’re about to give up you read a story

About someone’s journey who had reached their Medium glory

You let that encourage you to also write like a freak

After all, who wouldn’t want to earn $1000 a week?

You write, you submit, you publish and refresh

Looking at those stats, you wish it wasn’t you but the site had crashed

But its all about consistency, commitment and writing from the heart

Because this is not the end for you – it is just the start
