Re-booting Your Writerself
I haven't been able to post anything for a while (almost 6 months). In fact, I just didn't want to post and thought about just discarding the blog. The drive behind starting this blog seemed to have dimmed due to distinct reasons. The strongest reasons have been the lack of money, audience and motivation. I guess, I didn't want to make any efforts to get things going.
Never mind, I guess I am back on the initial roadmap, I had in mind.
I feel, I just kick-started the writer self of mine. Here are two key factors that I find may work for other demotivated writers as well:
Why should you write?
It's just not easy to keep on writing without a motivational drive. For some, it's the money they earn through writing, for some it's an action to expand their social network, for some it's about making an impression on others. So, you need to find yours. For me, it's about satisfying my writer self, nothing else, at least at this point and time. What about you?
Why shouldn't you write?
See, if you love to write, you just keep on writing. Irrespective of any stop factors. Ask yourself, if you love writing, why don't you write? Is it the time, work pressure, responsibilities? NO? It's you who are looking for reasons to not write. You do what you love to do, come what may. If you like to write, love to put your thoughts on paper, you should write. What you write and how you write doesn't matter when it comes to writing. For sure, if you make the content looks presentable, it should be you who feel satisfied by doing so. So, if you like to write, just write. Let your thoughts flow, follow your instinct and get it all down in that damn blog post. Just do it.
These were the two questions that I managed to found answers for. And here I am, ready to roll.
Did this post ring a bell in your head? No? Awesome, you are there, my friend. I don't believe in overnight transformations either. Take your time. Explore yourself. :-)
