Why Quality Friendships Trump Quantity Every Time!
Writing is a beast that demands to be tamed. It is a creature that can simultaneously thrill and terrify. It is an art form that can be both rewarding and frustrating. And yet, when we write, we feel a sense of accomplishment that is unmatched by any other pursuit.
To be a writer is to embrace the unknown. It is to sit down at a blank page and stare into the abyss. It is to confront the fact that you have something to say, but you’re not quite sure how to say it. It is to wrestle with language until it submits to your will.
We must push ourselves to finish. We must let the momentum carry us forward until we can write no more. Share on XAnd so, we write. We sit down at our desks, our laptops, our notebooks, and we write. We ignore the voice in our head that tells us we’re not good enough, that our ideas are stupid, that no one will ever read what we write. We focus on one thing and one thing only: getting the draft out.
For in that moment, we have tamed the beast. We have conquered our fears. We have written something that didn't exist before. And that is a feeling that is truly unparalleled. Share on X
We don’t worry about errors, about grammar, about editing. We don’t second-guess ourselves. We don’t let doubt creep in. We simply write. We let the words flow out of us, trusting that we can fix the mistakes later.
Writing has momentum. It is a force that propels us forward. It is a wave that we ride until it crashes onto the shore. And when we stop, when we hesitate, when we pause to fix what we’ve already written, we kill that energy. We disrupt the flow. We get stuck.
So we must keep going. We must push ourselves to finish. We must let the momentum carry us forward until we can write no more. And when we’re done, when we’ve written until we can’t, we can sit back and admire what we’ve accomplished.
For in that moment, we have tamed the beast. We have conquered our fears. We have written something that didn’t exist before. And that is a feeling that is truly unparalleled.
