We write, we write! 

By: Belani Asmara Hadi

From the first until now, most Indonesian people have less interest in writing. Much of what makes a person feel not confident with the results of his work, though among them is the ability to write. Self-confidence makes them less uncertain about the self and eventually quit before trying. They felt the writing was not perfect. Strangely, in Indonesia the country is not a dropout many scientists productive faculty of arts writing literature faculty dropout defeating. As quoted from the book "Just Write" (Alwasilah, 2005) that "It all is proof of the failure of teaching writing in the past. According to I, the teaching of writing systems that failed in the past, a literary school dropout scientists less motivated to make a paper, while the scientists are not the dropout literature has a great motivation to pour their knowledge into a paper, although minimal knowledge of grammar how to write good.

Many of the things that should we have to write. First, to be able to write, a person must have a broad perspective. Broad insights that can be gained from reading books, sources of printed and electronic information and personal experience. If the person is not extensive insight, he must have confused determine what he wrote. A broad insight to write the initial capital. Second, we must try to think about what the contents of the paper we will work on, therefore the resources required reading for many of us are going to write. Third, do not forget to start a paper by providing an attractive title, a title usually made attracting curious people to read it. In addition, the title also serves to restrict the content of writing a theme so as not to stray anywhere. Fourth, motivation is the most important thing when writing. If you do not have the motivation, we often end up writing and never finished. Motivation is the impulse that makes us want to write. Motivation is the impulse that makes us want to finish writing, finish well and make the best work. So basically, without the motivation to write with no intention of writing, writing in the mind of thinkers who can only do without.

To make good writing, takes time. This is sometimes a factor one barrier to write, because we are busy we often become the reason for lazy writing. We must be good at organizing and find time to write. As if we are always busy with various activities daily, so it's still 24 hours a day or less. In one day take time to make a daily record, such as books daily diary or journal. Reduce watching TV, with this we will get a lot of free time we can use to write. As for entertainment other than watching TV that can support activities such as reading writing and listening to music. Reading can add knowledge and really support it generates ideas for writing. Listening to music is also very useful to stimulate the right brain so you can easily think we are. Discipline divide their time equally important. As much as possible take the time to write, but not to interfere with daily activities. And use time effectively, namely to avoid activities that are not important outside of the house.

Sometimes we are confused when it will start to write, a commonly encountered problem is the topic of writing content. As I have argued above, in writing we have to give the title and we also have to think, they are obliged to begin by thinking about what topics will be mentioned. For beginner writers like us (including me), to practice writing skills do not have to pour topic that is too heavy. The simplest, we can take a topic of everyday life. What we experience, what we see, what we hear and what we feel, we can pour into an article. The simplest object in starting to create a text that is ourselves. Start by making ourselves as a topic if we found it difficult to get started. And it is all the steps that I did at the beginning of writing. In essence, we must accustom ourselves to write, because writing is an activity to remember and remind and many benefits. It would be nice also if the results of our paper can be enjoyed by the crowds and get a good appreciation.
