The Real Reason I Kept Writing Even When It Felt Difficult

Finally. I am doing it.

Felt blank. I am writing. Making mistakes. I am writing. Hesitated. I wrote. Feared judgment. I wrote. Whatever the situation is, I listened to myself and voiced it out. Despite the lows and highs, I chose to express.

I chose something that made me introduce myself to my true self. Something that made me visit my thoughts with honesty. Something that didn't let me ignore myself, my notions, or my perspectives.

I try to express myself daily. That's what I needed to grow. To become a more confident version of myself. It didn't happen in days or weeks. Every day is uncertain. Every day is difficult.

A few days back, when I expressed myself despite being blank with thoughts, a sudden thought took me back to the day I started voicing out my words. That chaotic day, with multiple thoughts, I was hesitating to write.

However, I wrote. For whom? Not for anyone. Only for myself. With a thought: whatever is going to happen will happen, but I would improve. The first day I wrote, I felt peace.

The next day, I thought, let's leave it. However, that thought didn't let me quit. I wrote. On the third day, I voiced myself out to feel the same calmness I felt on the first day. From that day, I started expressing myself through words, with thoughts for myself and for improvement.

Efforts keep consistency alive every day. They help remind me of my commitment to keep expressing myself continuously.

I voice myself out for me. For the perfection I waited for before starting. For the efforts that brought me closer to myself. For the thought, "I could." For the growth and improvement I have been seeking since the first day. For the awareness I didn't know I had before.

I write not for anyone else but for myself. I am trying to show up for myself. Writing showed me a reflection I had never seen before.

Don't wait for perfection. Start doing.

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...
