If you're trying to write, you don't have a story to tell yet.
When you've got something really worth writing, it will flow to you. Even if the writing itself isn't easy, you should be able to, for example, tell a voice recorder (or friendly listener!) all about it from start to finish.
Someone else can always clean up your ideas if you're a little rough with structure and flow, but only you can provide a story you feel passionate about. And you can't fake passion. Until it's there, you'll always just be "trying to write a story" ? not writing your story.
Put another way, writing a book is just a mechanical process. There's nothing meaningful or special to it. It's like sex: if you just set out to do it, mechanically, following all the checklists and guidelines for what it's supposed to look like ? you won't be having one of those cozy "oh god" movie afterglow scenes, trust me.
Telling a story, on the other hand, is a passionate process that comes from the heart with the help of your head. You can tell a story in lots of ways: film, animation, sock puppets, cardboard dinosaurs. Some people just choose writing as the most comfortable way to do it. Like sex: there's lots of ways to express to someone what you're feeling. It's not the specifics of the method, it's how much passion and heart is sincerely in it that determines how good it is. Rough edges can always be cleaned up and improved with time and feedback, but heart transplants are a bigger issue.
If you're telling a story you care about, you won't need all the anxietal trappings and formatting guidelines to reassure you ? you'll be too busy telling it. The rest is just formality.
