It is very common for us, taken by haste or impulse, to write texts that cannot always be classified as “ideal”. We make mistakes, and sometimes we make mistakes deliberately, without sticking to the details that are important to the writing process. We often make mistakes that could easily be fixed if we took the trouble to reread what we write. Many do not have this habit, which ends up revealing the setbacks of a poorly written text.
It can even be a boring, boring exercise, but rereading a text is an extremely efficient tip for those who want to get rid of errors in the written modality. Rereading, we make sure that our text is good, or the opposite, we can, through this simple act that only requires our attention, rewriting what is bad, poorly constructed or even unintelligible. It takes time, but it is an essential activity, especially for those who want to be understood.
THE rewrite it is as important as the writing, since it is difficult, especially for the most careful writers, to reach the result that we think is ideal in the first attempt. Anyone who observes a bad result in the first version he wrote will have, in the rewrite, the possibility of achieving a satisfactory result. Rewriting is a more laborious process than proofreading, because in this one, we are limited to small details, the absence of which would not imply a difficulty for the reader to understand the text. When we rewrite,
we redo our text is a much more complex process, which assumes that the author has observed what it's bad so that you can improve your text later on until you reach a final version, free from errors. initials.Do not stop now... There's more after the advertising ;)
When we recognize our flaws, we learn. Understanding our mistakes goes beyond judging whether something is right or wrong, because when we understand, in fact we assimilate, we leave a record in our memory and, whenever the doubt arises, this record will be reactivated. Every writing can be improved, and how would we know this if we didn't give errors their due importance? Failures can be our allies and knowing them also means knowing how to avoid them.
