Step 3: The obstacle

Post by Mitu100@ »

The third key ingredient for a successful conflict is an obstacle that stands in the way of your hero. So again, think about your reader and the goal at stake. What could stop your hero from succeeding? Put a mountain in his path that seems to reach up to the sky. Or a many-headed monster.

You don't have to limit yourself to one obstacle. You can have several obstacles one after the other, preferably in ascending order of difficulty. The more brutal you make the obstacles, the dominican republic telegram screening brighter the goal that your hero is currently prevented from reaching will shine.

The harder the fight, the greater the triumph.Share on X
In our example, you illustrate how impossible it seems to ever reach your goal - to confidently stand on a big stage. There are too many things standing in the way of that: the competition, the fear, the financial shortcomings. Because there are already so many speakers, and so many of them are incredibly great. Everything seems to speak against your hero.

With the three ingredients – a goal, a hero and at least one obstacle – you have already achieved the most important thing: basic tension for your article.

There is a bottomless gap between the desire to be on stage and the difficulty of achieving it. Your hero now sets out to overcome it.
