What Writing is teaching me to accept that I don't know everything?

-
From knowing nothing to realising, it has been a journey. A journey that started with hesitation now continues with curiosity. Being egoistic never helped anyone, nor did mine. The day I decided to let go of my ego was the day I accepted blankness within myself. That day I didn't just accept but broke down my chain of judgement and fear and wrote my first ever blog.

As the days passed, my nothing changed to everything. I crossed that negligible line between them through small efforts to express. From that day, writing has been the best partner that adds value to my life every day. I write regularly with excitement to gain new teachings every single day.


When I understood that knowing everything is a path to overthinking, I quit my ignorance and accepted that I don’t know everything. It gave my brain a safe space to think more creatively and explore more within me. A deep dive within the ocean of blankness has gifted me many pearl-like learnings.

Understanding and acceptance have a vast gap between them. Every time I write, I discover that gap. Bridging that gap isn't an option but a necessity to improve.

Writing is a lamp which shows me the path in the dark. It shows me that learning is a continuous process, not a fixed state. As I said in my last blog, my writing journey is beautifully decorated with commas, not with full stops.

Uncertainty is much more familiar to me nowadays. The more I am writing myself out, the more confidence and courage I gather to answer any unpredictability. Now, discomfort feels much better than comfort.

There is always more to know, more to explore beyond my knowledge. The day I realised blankness, I started learning.

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...

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...
