Freelance writers can learn about marketing.

They can take classes on how to improve their writing.

But without one ingredient, the whole thing is going nowhere.

What is it?

Confidence.

If you don’t think you can do this, then it’s a non-starter.

Freelancing simply requires hustle. You need to feel you have something valuable to offer, that people should pay money for.

When I did a bootcamp recently on breaking into freelance writing recently in Freelance Writers Den, writers told me the most important session of the four wasn’t the one on story ideas, or the one on how to write like a pro.

It was the one on how to build your confidence to actually get out there and get gigs.

I’ve done quite a few posts over the years about overcoming fear and gaining confidence, so I thought I’d turn them into a quick confidence-building course.

Here are more than a dozen posts that offer my best confidence-building tips for freelance writers from this blog (and one I did as a guest post, too):
