The Two Words That Helped Me Overcome Doubt and Keep Growing

I could.

These aren't only words. They are words carrying confidence, courage, and belief in them. These are the words responsible for the discipline and consistency being followed. These words define effort and commitment. When writing felt heavy, these two words reminded me of my reality. Reality: I hadn't done it. But I could. Confidence helps in writing out thoughts smoothly.

Within a few days of starting, when writing reflected me back to myself, I saw a change. A change in my thoughts, in my opinions. They weren't covered with layers of hesitation and fear of judgment. Instead, they were coming out smoothly through words. Even after failing to write perfectly, I stood back up to write again, thinking I could. When I got blank and was out of notions, I completed my blog because I could.

The words "I could" aren't just words; they are my motivation. They defined growth for me. They made me aware that failing once isn't the end. Also, succeeding once isn't growth. They helped me understand consistent effort. I ruled out every fear with these words.

A few days back, something uncertain made me skip a day of expressing myself. Did I break my streak? What should I do now? Multiple questions, no answers. A blank face, thinking about what to do. A few hours of silence made me understand doubt. Within the chaos, a thought made me calm. What if I voiced out my experience twice in a day?

I could. The clarity my inner voice gave me. It was the self-belief that I could express. It's the trust I had in the process. It's the courage that a few days of reflection gave me. It's the confidence to show up without a second thought.

Improvement and growth are defined by self-belief. They don't exist without the 3Cs: Confidence, Courage, and Commitment.

Try. Fail. Learn. Evolve.

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...
