Hone Your Mind To Tackle Writer’s Block Each Time You Feel Lost

I have always written. Since the 9th grade. Sporadically. Blaming writers block or life for my long absences. It’s just something many of us do. We wait for inspiration to strike or the right ambiance or putting it on the back burner for other more pressing matters.

Then I started writing for a living. Serious writing. Topics given to me. By theme. By need of the hour!

And I realized is writers block is a myth!

Not unlike exercise, the more you do it the more comes to you. The more you explore different facets of your writing, the more avenues open up. But there will be times when you feel stagnant and lost. What do I do then ?

Complete The Smallest Task

The easiest way to start writing, just like a car is to start putting words to paper or the screen if you may. Write an email. Write thoughtful comments for people. Write down a small letter of appreciation to someone.
