What Writing Is Teaching Me About Trusting My Own Pace?

Impatiently waiting for views daily was making me anxious till the day I stopped waiting. The day I stopped was the day I started controlling my anxiety and impatience. How fast I could improve was totally dependent on me. I convinced myself to work on my pace of learning, as it is directly related to growth. I am now sharing what I am being taught by the consistent blog writing sessions.
Everyone has a different capacity for thinking, for learning. In the beginning, I was feeling stuck, asking myself why I was not seeing my growth after so many days. But I was not doubting myself; I was just anxious to see if someone was reading my blogs or not. After some days, I decided to focus on improvements instead of waiting with impatience and anxiousness.
The passing of days made me learn many things which I didn’t know earlier. I started writing in silence, giving space for my brain’s creativity to work. I stopped comparing my blogs to other blogs. Instead, I focused on comparing my previous blogs to the new blog and marked mistakes to improve in the next one. I noticed a few changes in me from that day.
Now the impatient behaviour has changed into a calm and patient learner. A learner who is not anxious but is trusting himself to write more effectively than before. That is helping me improve my blog day by day. My daily small efforts are building a strong foundation. Whenever a seed is planted, it takes time to come out as a plant. Then the small plant is converted into a big tree. The same is being felt by me now.
If I had just waited and not focused on improvement, I would not be writing blogs consistently. I have belief in myself. I trust myself that learning slowly doesn’t matter, but learning does. There would be negligible growth in the beginning, but improvement would work like a fixed deposit for me. The return of being an accurate writer would be more than this investment. It is helping me show up daily, ignoring outcomes.
Trust yourself. If the roots are strong, the tree will stand tall and stronger.
