Your Writing Reward is a razor-sharp Voice
I’m currently trying new ways to explore skills and powers. But how can I possibly know what I am doing if I don’t even know what to write about?
How can I properly write a good text if I lack the motives to start doing it? What is most important, the thinking process to prove a point or the writing process to arrive at no destination?
This isn’t a “Life is great” type of text.
This is the “getting lost” type of text.
Well, It is obvious right now that creating to Medium is my sacred priority. The writing habit is intrinsically formed, any feeling is turn into creativity.
The motives are based on habits now. I write because it’s a part of me.
But I’m drunk, and I am writing. This is not a good formula.
First of all. I was weak today…
What I actually need is to express without judgment and without being seen.
Writing to no one, I can write to everyone.
I’ve told myself that I no longer would drink to get drunk, then it started with a cup of wine in the lunch the other day — “Just one day” kind of thing.
Now I’m here, saying whatever doesn’t matter. But I got to keep myself on the line, or I will suffer the consequences of poor decision making.
In the end I know that writing is different than everything else I’ve made.
In the writing process I brainstorm and write about anything that I want.
I can go minutes completely focused, thinking while writing.
Typing as fast as I can.
Telling a story.
Fuck it, I know I can do this:
My point is not always clear when I start writing,
but I am focused on the process while I do.
I’m not thinking on problems, I am just swimming on an ocean of letters.
Some may say that it is only when we get lost that we can find ourselves.
Then, there is The Editing Process…
This was how I felt that day 🕵🏻
Today is a different day 🎈
I know something worth reading comes out in the end.
My whole day becomes worth just because of a single published text.
You may see it as a singular text, but for me there are several ones.
- The draft which I convinced myself to delete will be edited and posted.
- That erased paragraph will be cut and pasted here.
- That nonsense journal entry will be worth sharing
Today I wasn’t going to write,
But then I wrote and this amazing thing came out.
That’s what writing does,
It forces thoughts to come out of our subconscious mind.
Be prepared to say a lot of things,
Your brain has a ideas to express.
Allow it. Let it flow.
You will thrive by doing the required work.
Some of the words will be meaningful,
Some of them are going to be meaningless.
I don’t care about the end result because the reward is the writing.
Learning as I go, teaching others how to live a better life.
It’s amazing to notice the progress I’ve been doing here on Medium.
In a month of consistent work I was able to grow my text reads from 3 to 40!
What else can I say other than WOW. Thanks @everyone.
People THINK that blogging is easy.
In reality, keeping the consistency and posting quality content everyday is really a hard thing to do.
This is just like Tom Kuegler once said in his Online Course:
“Medium makes the whole blogging thing so easy that everybody takes it for granted now.”
I had to do it to see with my own eyes the struggling reality.
“The struggle you’re in today is developing the strength you need for tomorrow. Don’t give up.”
This comforts my mind and also my heart.
