How Letting Go of Control Helped Me Grow Without Forcing Change

-
Growth felt like a mystery- until I stopped trying to predict it. I didn't stop growing, I just stopped interfering in how it's happening. I stopped reacting and started observing, doing what improvement demands without much intervention. With the passing of days, growth didn’t change- I did. Watching myself improve day by day made me understand what silence holds.

Not every flaw needs immediate action. Reaction to response and self-awareness have been an evolution on this journey. They didn't allow me to intervene on the path of chasing growth and perfection. Learning can't be forced; it is voluntary. Allowing mistakes to exist gives much more to learn than their instant correction.

Within a few days, more experiences and learnings joined this journey of improvement. For some days, emptiness had accompanied me a lot, but I didn't react. I ignored it, working on flaws and improving them. Growth was visible, but emotions were missing. Days later, sudden thoughts to raise standards turned the tables.

Refining progress again and again didn't get me settled for being better for long. Days change, so do the limitations. I stopped trying to control every part of my growth. With every scattered thought, creativity took birth. It reflected my different perspectives.

I felt lost being silent; I changed my perspectives, but I never intervened in the process I had been following from Day one. Silence feels empty, but it raises the right questions and shifts perspectives. Changes happened when I wasn't even forcing them.

The web of thoughts didn't remain a puzzle. Neither did I struggle, nor did I get stuck. With time, every thought felt complete within itself; the web sorted into clarity. Hands off separated observation and judgment. Control reduced, understanding increased.

Growth felt natural when I didn't interrupt; it unfolded much better. I became a witness to my learning and evolution.

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...
