The Day I Finally Realised My Definition of Challenges

Everyday, with some curiosity, much willingness to learn, and indefinite doubts - it's not a notion anymore, but has been my continuous habit. Everyday different challenges make me feel excited. Excited to experience something new and interesting. Whether it was about missing a day to express or dealing with creative exhaustion, challenges do follow. There was a time when challenges made me feel exhausted. They made me question myself - why me? And why only during the times I try to improve myself?

However, I didn't understand at the earliest. I didn't understand any question, the need to question myself. But as days passed, I started realising the need for obstacles at every point. With time, I started loving obstacles and waiting for them. I wait not for the trouble but for the experiences I would get, the moments I would learn from.

Earlier, I was only aware of challenges as troubles. On the very first day, I experienced myself in trouble. Within the trouble of questions, I pushed myself continuously. I pushed myself to voice out every single thought I had. I did it. I did it with hesitation and fear of judgment.

The first trouble of the journey made me understand basic knowledge to be myself. Not to fear any trouble. Once the problem is being faced, facing it again and again makes you fearless. I try remembering this thought whenever I find myself facing challenges. That's it. Problems start resolving on their own.

What felt good the first time started looking fun and interesting the second time - the second day of being in chaos. Dealing with multiple notions at a time wasn't allowing me to write about one thought. Chaos of thoughts, or what people call overthinking, was about to mess up every word of the blog. Although I wrote, having completed, and incomplete notions of being an overthinker.

That day's challenge made me question my habit of overthinking. It taught me to face every thought without holding onto it - because holding on only creates more trouble, more thinking, more looping back.

Two days, two challenges made me curious about the third day. I started questioning myself: is today also the day I would learn something new? However now, it's been my everyday partner helping me improve myself to live my dream one day. Dream to write. Dream to express. Dream to write being a character of a story.

Challenges didn't harm but strengthen, to grow and 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...
