To Know Yourself

Writing teaches you to hear and trust your own voice. It make us look deeper. It helps to reach feelings, thoughts, desire that perhaps we didn’t know we had. It connects us with what is that we’ve wanted to do in life,but were too scared to admit. Writing is not about only novels, books, or research. But about connection with yourself and something you do in order to come closer who you really are. Writing helps you to get rid of noise that distract you.

Here is a practice you can do every day with just a paper and pen or pencil.

Get up 15mins before you have to wake up. Go and sit somewhere you’re less likely to have any interruption and start writing without thinking. Yes without thinking. Do not care about spelling or grammar. When you are done, do not go back and check what you have written. Simply close your notebook until your next Writing session. And write each day without fail. With this practice you will notice your thoughts getting clear.
