Write from the heart. Don't rush it. If you have to, dream it up. Know your plot. Don't edit until the end. The less interruptions, probably the better. Don't say that you must do it by [date]. It is good to set goals, but don't make the time too short. A slowly-written story is probably a lot better than a rushed story. Write.
Hope I helped,
Ail.

You should get a basic idea what do you want to happen, like:
Main character is born
his parents are killed
oh my, what a hard childhood
surprise, he's gotten through and now he is strong
hmmm, his parents were killed by a long gone villain who has now returned
yes, he will avenge them, and indeed he did
See? That's a quick summary of Harry Potter.
Get this idea first, because it's so much easier to deal with th writing when you do know where are you heading.

By the by, for those of you who didn't bother to answer the OP's question and, instead, chose to ridicule the OP's grammar, you should probably read again. Looks to me like the OP was using a translator and pretty sure we all know how wonderful the online translators work. Oh, and your own grammar could use a bit of help.
Just sayin'.
