Why I Stopped Planning and Started Growing: A Personal Growth Journey

Thinking about what to say. Later on, I started voicing out with a thought: why not just start and get along with the flow? Whenever I tried planning my journey, I ended up messing up my blogs. Even my thoughts and notions felt incomplete. Getting along with the flow brought out the most honest and raw version I could write.

Plans didn't work out with uncertainties. Neither are my mistakes fixed, nor are my improvements. While putting my thoughts into words, I didn't try rectifying yesterday's mistakes. But I do try to put in all my efforts to get over any mistakes or flaws from the earlier blogs.

Being lazy earlier, I know the comfort I had been missing. I know why writing isn't feeling motivating these days. I doubted myself to write myself out. Words were easy to think of, but thoughts weren't. I tried for a few days, making up my mind to start writing a blog. Days started passing with a promise, from tomorrow.

One day, I decided: comfort or myself. The day I chose myself, words and thoughts started getting clarity with each other. However, sometimes words disappear, but thoughts don't. Plans didn't work out; it's the commitment that does. I waited for the perfect plan to get started, but I didn't. However, a thought rooted my reflection- writing myself out.

Once, I remember how my plan made me learn something unexpected. Start again and again till you succeed. Once, voicing out felt frustrating. I planned what was to be written. I started and got almost done; suddenly, my device got shut down. Being frustrated, I decided to quit for a day on the writing journey. However, sitting in silence made me think of something meticulous. Words could be wiped out, thoughts couldn't.

Despite being furious, I wrote myself out. After being done, I realised I had written far better than earlier. Some plans could make you learn, but the flow lets you live the learning. I did. I try to live it every single day.

Don't plan, get along with the flow of life- but with commitment. Learn. Grow. 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...
