Sometimes it’s complicated to figure out what to write next.
With so many ideas swirling in my head of what I should be doing next, it can feel like the writer’s block.
When I try to write because I want to progress, to move things forward, nothing moves.
It’s usually when serendipity finally finds me that I feel inspired to write an article or two.
Or a post on Twitter (oh, it’s X now).
I’m trying to grow this site.
And grow an audience on Twitter.
And grow my YouTube Channel (the one associated with this site).
Feels like I’m going in too many directions at once.
And nothing gets done.
Too many moving pieces. Focus spread too thin.
I will probably not optimize this post for SEO.
It feels good when I can write some articles and not have to worry about SEO.
That’s what I wanted this site to be in the first place.
An outlet for my thoughts.
But also a place where I can offer value. To whoever is ready to receive it.
Words flow when I enjoy it. This is my attemp to kickstart those creative juices, to put things in motion.
It works somehow, in a way. It works because there’s no pressure to get things going. I can write whatever I want, without an end result in sight.
I’m writing for the pleasure of expressing myself, not for an outcome.
And that makes the whole difference.
I remember now. Everytime I write with a purpose in mind, I usually get creator’s block.
Because I’m not writing from the heart. I’m trying to write from the mind in those moments.
Writing from the heart requires to put all expectations aside.
It requires writing with no outcome in mind.
It’s about the journey, not the destination, they say.
Who’s they? I don’t rememer. I picked this idea up in some spiritualiy book, long ago.
Can you believe it’s been 15 years since I started reading Eckhart Tolle’s book – The Power Of Now?
I can’t believe how much time has passed. Nor how many changes I’ve gone through.
Time passes. Time flies. Changes come. We change. Everything changes. Nothing stays the same.
Some changes are bitter sweet. Some are horribly painful. Some are delightful.
Ups and downs. Here we go. A carousel of emotions. A carousel of life.
At least I’m reaching my first milestone with this site – 25 published articles.
This is article #23.
Over & out.
