Share Your "Hard Knocks" and Experience With Your Readers "Experience is a hard teacher because she gives the test first, the lesson afterward." -- Vernon Law As you move forward in life, you're conditioned. Don't touch the hot stove. Look both ways before crossing the street. Pick your battles because life's too short to fight over trivial things. Whether you fail or if you succeed (in your relationships, in your career, or even in your life), you've gained valuable experience that conditions you. It's up to you to decipher what worked and what didn't as you move forward. Think about those "hard knocks" in your career or someone who inspired you and how you or they overcame adversity. From more general life-based reflections to specific blunders in your niche, use these ruminations to write the perfect article for your readers. The Hard Lesson Article Template - Introduction: "Just when I thought things couldn't get worse ..." Start with the climax of the hard lesson you experienced (i.e., the most intense part of an event). The key is to hook the reader while maintaining relativity with an engaging anecdote the reader will either relate to or want to continue reading so they can avoid it.
- Body: Hindsight is always 20/20, so take a look back. What events led up to this hard lesson? Describe the back story.
- List Recommendations: List tools, tips, steps, and/or precautions you would take to prevent or alleviate the hard knock if you could go back and do it all over again.
- Conclusion: Your readers don't want to feel despair; conclude on a heartening note! End your article with why the reader should follow your ideas as well as how much time and energy you would have saved had you known these things beforehand.
