The Day I Realized I Was Too Aware of Myself

I have observed myself too much; it exhausts me nowadays. Every day starts and ends with a goal to understand the reason behind every small moment. A few moments make me learn new things, while some of them just make me recall my old learnings with a few additions. I observed myself so much that sometimes I stopped experiencing things naturally.

Awareness had always helped me write my blogs with much more rawness and honesty. But over-awareness made me predictable in my own reactions. I started noticing every reaction instantly. Every small emotion and feeling became visible to me. Sometimes, I observe myself more than I experience myself.

A few days back, while writing my blog, I noticed something very common in a unique way. I was about to write a word my voice wanted, but I found it wrong. Maybe a loop of improvement held me back from expressing it in my blogs. I tried finding different words for the same thought, but I couldn't.

Being too aware of my flaws, the whole thought vanished from the blog. It wasn't the best, but writing it out could only define its perfection. I became aware faster than I could feel. Every day, completing the blog improves me, but I couldn't ignore my own patterns anymore. Even my calmness started feeling self-observed.

Every experience defines what has been felt and observed. Too many feelings hide observations, and excessive observation wipes out emotions. The perfect balance between the two makes an experience surreal and memorable forever. Too much awareness makes moments complicated.

Realization isn't an effort anymore; it has become a habit on this journey. I could no longer ignore my inner voice. I notice every single thought, despite it being imperfect. My mind even notices my every self-talk. Some moments feel less real because I stay busy understanding them.

Awareness stopped being occasional and became constant.

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...
