What if anyone doesn’t like it? What would they say? These are the questions we ask ourselves whenever we start something new. This fear of judgment doesn’t let people start their work. This is a normal situation which everyone faces. Removing that fear of judgment is the most difficult part. Daily writing is helping me deal with this fear. But it was not easy from the start. But how did I reduce it?
Fear of judgment is common among all of us. What must the person be thinking about me? This was the question that arose in my mind on the first day of writing. It feels scary on day one. But the passing of days makes it a normal situation for me. Then I was not scared but used to it. But what made it normal for me is the most important part. As I told earlier, I am expressing my thoughts with full honesty. Expressing thoughts regularly gives the foundation to self-confidence. It works as a tool for me to deal with the fear of judgment.
Expressing thoughts is not an easy task. It never was, for me too, from the start. But whenever I start to write, I remember the thought. The thought which gives me motivation to continue writing. Whatever happens is going to happen, but I will learn. This thought helps me express my thoughts consistently. That is shaping my thinking to focus on writing more than thinking about anything else. It helped me focus on my voice instead of others.
Determination towards the goal is important to reduce the fear of judgment. That willpower gives answers to the questions that arise due to fear. The same happened with me. I was determined to write from day one. The thing I got to know is the scope of improvement in my writing. Now, I acknowledge my mistakes, and that is improving me day by day. Simply, that willpower brings consistency for me. Now writing daily matters to me more than anyone’s opinion. Writing daily is shifting my focus from what people will feel to what I feel.
I started writing with a fear of judgment. But expressing my thoughts daily in writing with all you guys is doing some magic to me. The magic which I never expected. That is nothing but strong feelings to express myself, being the person I am. That’s something I am learning on my journey.
Be expressive, share your thoughts in the comments.
