The Truth About Writing When You Have Nothing to Say

Thought to quit. Thought about what to write every day. Would there be something to share every day? But life revolves all around. There is much to express every day. What flaws I improved, what lessons I learned, which experiences gave me new perspectives of myself. A lot to share, but I didn't know how earlier. As soon as I started understanding myself, tables did turn. The existence of thoughts started getting noticed.

I do remember an incident. I almost quit that day. I didn't care about discipline, consistency, or anything. I thought, what to write if everything had been expressed? My inner voice shouted out loud. Everything? No. I didn't, honestly. I realized it later. However, I didn't have anything to express that day. Silence peaked for three hours. A thought clicked after hours of calmness.

I ended up writing my words on having nothing to express. I completed it, and peace followed. That day I learned it's all about intent. It's all about commitment. Commitment to show up every day without a second thought. Intent to be honest with the voice.

Days passed, and I felt something evolve. What to say? Blankness. Earlier, I was able to think, but now every thought seemed incomplete. Incomplete without me for myself. Multiple thoughts, words vanished.

But thoughts didn't. Notions didn't.

With the passing of hours, I ended up writing my blog on the blankness itself. Despite all the odds, I tried my best to show up. To show myself my honest self, one that didn't quit.

When thinking a bit about those moments, I understood how silence gives space to go beyond every limitation. Silence, which everyone talks about but few own. I am trying to own my silence.

From nothing to lessons to improve, life proved its circle.
Nothing is certain, then don't be. Be limitless. Own yourself.

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...
