What writing is teaching me about revisiting old thoughts?

A simple way to see improvement is to just compare anything from the past. Comparing doesn’t mean materialistic things; it could be thoughts, perspectives, and much more. Such as, the one who was lazy before is a disciplined one now. Just recalling old thoughts makes us realise our scope for improvement. It’s not only about improvement but also about recalling the memories that made us learn many things.


Yesterday, I was reading my former blogs just to know my mistakes and to rectify them in the next blog. Suddenly, a thought clicked about blog writing. I recalled that the one who was afraid of writing is now trying to rectify his errors in writing. Hesitation in writing has changed into sharing learnings consistently. The fear of judgement perspective broke down into expressing freely whatever I want.

Whatever progress is visible to me is because I am comparing myself with my previous self. The progress seems small but is a milestone for me for sure. I know what it actually means for someone who was once wasting his time doing nothing. Recalling old thoughts makes me more self-aware and motivated to write again. Sometimes, it gives me thoughts to write in the next blog.

Visualising my old self and comparing it with the current one makes me proud of myself. At least I am trying to do something that doesn’t count as wasting time. I understood that if I could improve this much, then I could do more than this. It’s helping boost my confidence to show up daily without thinking about anything else.

As I told you earlier about the frustration issue, it had troubled me formerly. But I learned that anger destroys knowledge, which is why I now respond with patience. Now also, when I am writing this blog, I am just writing what happened in the past. But learning comes from experience.

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...
