When Consistency Stops Feeling Forced: From Discipline to Identity

Despite feeling low and full of excuses, I still showed up and wrote. Once it was forced, but now it's normal. Neither my thoughts nor my consistency broke. But a shift from forced to voluntary feels energetic and has enhanced me to share myself more loudly.

What stopped me earlier became weaker with the passing of days- resistance. It didn't disappear completely but didn't make me hesitate in sharing my voice. With time, I had learnt resistance was just messy, immature thoughts I never allowed out. Either they were incomplete or irrelevant; they didn't come out due to the fear of hesitation and perfection.

Calmness gave me space to think beyond those immature thoughts resisting me from sharing my journey of expressing my voice and learnings. Patience and courage are good companions. Courage made sharing feel natural, not forced- just a pure voluntary routine. Discipline resisted the resistance that tried to stop me.

Slowly, discipline has become an identity. Initially, it was forcible, but with the passing of time, it has become honorary. Motivation just kickstarted my journey of effort to share, but discipline significantly maintains the streak to improve day by day, chasing perfection.

While writing it, I remember an incident from previous days. When I was just thinking of writing my blog titled Distraction, I noticed an unexpected improvement, making me feel just one step ahead. Thoughts were coming to me voluntarily; none of them were incomplete or irrelevant.

I was eager to share what I learned and experienced, which I didn't feel before. Days back, perspectives and viewpoints were present, but eagerness was missing. With time, keenness is showing the way to my voice, forcing force to step back.

Consistency didn’t become easier- I just became stronger than resistance.

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...
