Yesterday, I listened to Beyond by accident and it reminded me of the deceased lead singer Wong Ka Kui, who spent most of his teenage years learning music on his own while still working in other jobs. Surely his dedication resulted in the flower of success. Sometimes dedication seems a little foolish, but efficient. Choose your own road and pay dedication and surely you’ll have a wonderful life. Even though your road is so-called wrong, you will still achieve something just like Ouyang Feng did with wrong Jiuyin Zhenjing.

Just take writing for example, there isn’t any writer who was born with writing talent. Dedication to writing is the basis. Ni Kuang said writing needed talent, but I have to say it needed dedication too. There is also no fixed rule on writing. Jin Yong’s elegant language is popular and Gu Long’s short and simple language is popular too. In fact it’s hard to say which is better. Writing clearly with your own style is enough to be a good writer.

Lao She insisted on writing every day. Write something every day, or else you’ll become rusty. Reading can bring people pleasure. Writing can bring people pleasure more. Because reading is passive while writing is initiative. Lu Xun’s writing is charismatic and you like to read it again and again without feeling bored. Emulation of others’ writing is necessary, but keeping your own style is more important.

No matter how, dedication is precondition. Only with it, we can talk more. First you should have something to write instead of writing for writing. Before you can express yourself clearly, don’t try to sugar up your writing. Anyway, there is no fixed rule for writing. Everyone has his own opinion, just write for pleasure, that’s it.
