I Thought "Let It Be" Was Peace. It Was Actually Ignorance.

Let it be. Whenever exhaustion feels heavy, I spell out the exact words. Not every day is the best day. Not every day is a learning. Some days just pass and some become the moments I keep with myself. I'm not always motivated enough to show up. Not every time do I acknowledge my mistakes. On the off days, I just move forward, telling myself to let it be. These three words are enough to stop a web of thoughts from spiraling. Notions which are neither required as learnings nor as moments. While writing the blog, I felt "let it be" almost every other day.

Day five, I was prepared to write the blog. But before that, I thought to read the previous ones. For the very first time, I understood where ignorance is required and where it's not. The first time I felt the need to say "let it be," I wasn't sure enough to accept my flaws. Whenever something is experienced for the very first time, hesitation is quite normal. When I observed a few of my flaws, I wasn't able to accept them. Incomplete notions without any starting or ending, grammatical mistakes in a, an, the, was, have.

The flaws might look normal, but I wasn't prepared enough to accept and work upon them. I said "let it be" and waited for a few days to rectify one of the many flaws.

A few words didn't just calm me down. They made me think about how fearful taking action feels the very first time. Taking an initiative isn't an easy task. First, I had to break all the barriers that had been stopping me. Barriers which weren't even made by others but by myself.

The "let it be" made me calmer, but it doesn't work to break those hesitation barriers. Only I could make it possible by accepting whatever flaws I did. Not only accepting but putting in efforts to improve them. However, a few days later I did the same.

For the first time, I ignored the chaos of notions to think more calmly and acknowledge my mistakes. I didn't want hesitation to spill over onto my notions for other blogs.

"Let it be" was an ignorance to every web of notions - notions which made me feel disturbed. Other times, "let it be" wouldn't help me improve on my mistakes. Uncertainties do guarantee growth, but they also guarantee many unwanted notions to think about.

Sometimes ignorance is the need of the hour, not every time.

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...
