The Gap Between Me and Myself: Finding Myself Through Writing

Writing did it. Finally, a child with many thoughts got a space bridging the gap between me and myself. Numerous notions didn't just sit in the corner of my mind. They voiced themselves out every day and evolved whenever required. No hesitation, no overthinking; it's just me enjoying my own company.

Expressing myself through words isn't easy. Words carry emotions from the wonderful moments I had been feeling. A single wrong word ruins the emotion of a thought. A thought coming out of the web of notions needs to be presented simply and raw. I use words, sentences, and phrases to communicate with myself.

I was never truly myself earlier; I realized it later. Earlier, I never accepted my flaws or my thoughts and never tried to improve them. I didn't even notice them. The day I questioned my hesitation, my voice proved the existence of thoughts by writing them raw. It was the day I laid the foundation for bridging the space between me and myself.

Once the journey started, thoughts came and went without fear of judgment. As the days passed, blogs started reflecting me. What I had not seen with my eyes, writing helped me see. I understood where I had to improve, helping me become better with my views. I didn't carry my streak; it's writing that supported it.

When chaos affects me, silence feels a bit confusing. However, it helps me observe each of my experiences with curiosity. Hours of quietness are a luxury and help match actions with thoughts. The first time, it felt calm. The second time, it felt like curiosity. But over time, it started feeling questionable.

Once I understood my patterns of expression, I redefined myself to grow. I am chasing completeness, but I found myself in between. I became much more self-aware these days than earlier. Every single moment started carrying something worth understanding. The space seems to be filling with every passing effort.

The day my voice gave me words, I found myself.

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...
