The Strange Reason I Couldn't Quit Writing

No, it can't be.

Choice was never a part of my journey. And it never would be. I started with a goal and stayed focused on my growth. I never chose writing as a way to improve myself. With time, it became an integral part of my life.

Daily, I see myself through the mirror my thoughts have painted through words. I didn't know whether it was flawless or full of flaws. However, I know the notions I voiced out through words are the questions I had been asking myself.

When things didn't go well, when I made mistakes at every step, I thought of quitting. But I didn't, with a thought that it wasn't a choice but a necessity. When hesitation and fear of judgment were not letting my voice out, it was the only way I chose.

With the passing of days, I had much more to share through blogs. With every addition, a new improvement over a flaw became my story to learn from. These experiences didn't come from options. They aren't just moments; they are emotions that could only be felt through a decision. Indeed, it is something I have been experiencing every second of my writing journey.

When things started looking blank, I had the option to skip a day of writing. But as I mentioned, my writing decision had already made me aware enough to never think about the option. I thought, stayed silent, wrote a bit, deleted, rethought, and continued the loop till I completed my day with a blog. Perfect words could be optional, but the streak couldn't be.

It wasn't like I lacked choices. But the day I started expressing myself, I didn't think about choosing. I either make a decision or forget the choices. I have been focusing on actions more than thinking since the start of my journey. A few days felt heavy; now it has become a kind of habit.

Options confuse, decisions direct.

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...
