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.

Why I Decided to Start Writing as a Beginner?

As you could understand by the title only that I am trying blogging even without experience. Today only, I created my Blogger account for a single reason — the reason that many of us face nowadays, the inability to talk to anyone but wanting to talk out our views. Some say it’s an introvert kind of behaviour; I don’t think it’s introvert behaviour. In fact, I think it’s all about a person’s hesitation in talking to someone. I am the same kind of guy who doesn’t know how to convey himself to others. All I have is the hesitation of what if someone says something. Then I decided, why should I not write to express myself ? Writing is the only mode of communication I am comfortable with. Why starting felt scary? Starting to write is the most difficult part. All I was doing was thinking about what I would write and what if it doesn’t work out for me. There was a certain sort of confusion going on in my mind and a little bit of fear about whether I would write things well. The ma...

What hesitation taught me about starting something new?

Yesterday, I wrote a blog about writing a blog without experience. While writing the blog, I was having a certain sort of confusion or hesitation, which is normal for me. But I thought it is a universal rule that whenever an individual starts something, he or she faces certain confusion or has a fear of judgment. A fear which can be considered the biggest problem an individual faces before starting something new. But I thought, what is there to fear? Whosoever judges me, just judge. Fear is normal, but overcoming that fear is not normal for everyone. I know my efforts will help me overcome that fear. I made that effort yesterday and wrote. It felt amazing after writing a blog. I felt that no judgment can break my will to write. Hesitation and fear can only be beaten by the key known as consistency — a word which is familiar to everyone, but not everyone follows. I was also a non-consistent person, but I thought, why don’t I become consistent if it helps in my growth? Why d...

How Daily Writing Is Improving My Focus and Clarity?

Hi everyone, how are you all? Today’s topic is something that we all look for to do any sort of work. It’s something that is required even before the starting of any work, i.e., focus and clarity. Isn’t it, guys? Have you ever started your work without focus or clarity? I think no, because you can’t even think to start without these two. Guys, just tell me, do you like scattered things or well-mannered things? I think well-mannered will be the answer. So where does it come from? It comes from focus and clarity.  Earlier, I wrote about the thinking of thoughts or the web of thoughts that revolves in my mind for writing and not starting it; they all were scattered thoughts. But nowadays, I know what to write and how to write. That’s the work focus and clarity have done for me. I know from where to start, and I know what to write about my learnings and thoughts in the blog. The scattered thoughts got channelised into a single one, i.e., to start writing. Daily writing play...
