What Writing Is Teaching Me About the Way I Talk to Myself?

Challenges over silence; asking not only introduces questions, but also gives a path to answers. A voice with thoughts that may be correct or incorrect couldn't be identified without expressing them. Talking to myself turned out to be the reason for my learnings. Had I not talked, nor shared my experiences, I wouldn't have felt this journey.

Self-talk isn't pity, but it takes us to a pit of knowledge; the brain. A pit filled with much more than expected and unexpected tales. It sometimes feels like a podcast with myself, a bit of curiosity not letting the brain think beyond the topic.

Talking to others and getting feedback could only make me learn my mistakes. But when I talk to myself, I learn the process to improve. It might feel like an easy task, but it is the most difficult one. True opinions have layers of lies over them, hiding in any corner of the brain. Being too soft with myself hides the truth I need to face.

An incident that taught me the importance of self-talk happened a few days ago. The day when I was completely blank, my brain wasn't processing any ideas to be expressed. I took a break for a few minutes and asked myself about the problem. For some time I was silent, but my brain was giving stupid ideas to leave writing that day's blog.

A voice of silence became an answer within chaos, and I found that day's thoughts. It was about the blankness that was making me silent—a story of creative exhaustion. That day, a gap between me and myself got a bridge.

Writing has given me a newer version to see everything from different glances. Every glance is a tale within myself, and it could only be found when I ask myself loudly. That loud voice uncovers lies from my opinions.

Self-talk is a luxury held by everyone, used by few. It changed my perspective and could change yours too.

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...
