Why Does Writing
Matter?
Written words have the ability to last longer and can be transmitted to a larger
audience in their original form.
Let us suppose that you are the smartest person in the world. You have discovered a cure for cancer, you know how to create
peace in the Middle East, or you have
found a solution for the problem of pov-
erty. The only problem is that you do
not know how to communicate well. Ev-
ery time you try to write or speak, your
words come out unclear or jumbled. You
have trouble organizing your thoughts
and getting them down in a form that
can be easily transmitted to all those
who need to know your creative and life-
saving ideas. All your knowledge will be
lost to the world forever. Thousands will
die—chaos will reign—and all for the
want of good communication skills.
