When You Don't Know What to Write About

Do you also experience those moments when you are so eager to write or blog already on this platform so you open the "write an article" page but suddenly you don't know what you're going to write or talk about anymore? And I think this is what is called "writer's block".

I have been writing on read.cash since September 07, 2020, and I have published almost or more than 400 articles now. I have written about various topics already starting from my experiences in life, my goals, and dreams that I want to achieve, and also my journey in the crypto world. I have even tried publishing my academic works before when I was still starting.

I know a lot of you have been writing on this platform too and some are even aiming to write and publish an article every day because they're used to it already. In fact, it is also one of my goals this year, to make 1 original content per day until the end of the year so that I get to publish a total of 365 articles this 2022 if of course, read.cash is still functioning until the year ends.

But sometimes, no matter how interested you are to achieve a certain goal, and that is to write an article per day, your mind just wants to shut off and leave you behind. That even if your fingers are now ready to tap the screen of your phone or the keyboard of your laptop, if your brain cells are not yet active to come up with the words to make long and original content, it just seems useless. Coming up with an interesting topic to write and blog about is just as difficult as thinking about the whole content of the subject.

So you just decide to close the page for now and come back later when you already have an idea of what to write on for today. Then you decide to browse on the homepage of the platform to read other users' works and to get an insight from them. But you still don't feel like writing any similar topic like them because you can't relate to their experiences or you don't have the same story to tell. So you also browse your photo gallery to find a motivational post that you saved from Facebook or Instagram for you to have something to write on. But you're also not in the mood to write inspiring words today. Then you decide again to open the Facebook app in the hopes of finding a catchy idea but you just ended up wasting your time there.

Actually, this is what I was doing before I came up with this topic. I thought it's no use already and I won't get to write an article today. But here I am, blabbering nonsense because I don't exactly know what to write on tonight. Perhaps, some of you could relate to me somehow.

Being a writer and blogger is not an easy job or a side hustle, especially if you want to be consistent in having content every single day. It's actually not required to write daily but there is just a sense of fulfillment if you get to do it. So even just by sharing how your day went, or writing about that simple yet impactful conversation you had with your former teacher or High School friend is already creative on its own.

So I have nothing but pure admiration for those who are doing a job well done in their blogging journey on this platform and outside of read.cash.

Cheers to more articles to write!

I agree langga. I do the same. Everytime I was in empty all I did open my facebook account and scrolling there to rest my mind and hoping there will be a hint that gives me idea what will be my topic so that I could write on it.

Sometimes we need to rest ourselves too Langga especially our mind. Don't push yourself if your brain is not functioning well because it will worst the situation.

It's been a long journey and writing 400 articles till yet wouldn't be an easy thing, but still you did your job amazingly. Right sometimes we want to write but can't because of the lack of inner motivation.

We can write articles every day if we want to. We just have to think a little deeper because of the content inside us or around us or the daily events of our lives. But there are many talented people among us who find it easy.

It's a very vital part of writing. Every writer at some point or the other experiences writers block but it does not mean that they won't later get through with writing. Its a just a phase.

Mahirap talaga cguro noh habang tumatagal parang nauubosan karin cguro ng idea of what to write for the following day hahah. Ako nga kakastart lng peru parang napakalimited lng yung idea ko kung ano isusulat ko next. Kasi aside sa hirap akong mag compose ng english eh mas mahirap din mag isip kung ano yung topic yung isusulat 😅

That's so me everytime! 😁 kapag walang masulat nagbabasa ng mga article dito, minsan hindi ako makarelate kaya hindi nalang ako nagcocomment, like na lang. Minsan naman hanap sa facebook ng mga idea na pwedeng gawing topic, tapos at the end of the day wala rin kaya wala ring nagawang article. 😅

Nice article, and I agree with you about writer's block. One of my strategies has been to jot down my thoughts whenever I feel like writing a lot and come back to it at another time when I don't. That way I can stay disciplined and consistent. Even so though, I feel like my writing is not the same when I am coping with writer's block- it's stiff and stilted. Best of luck to you and hope to see you around!

Yeah, same here. I tend to write down a lot of topics with their content every time I'm in the mood to write. Ehe!

When I don't know what to write I simply tap on my laptop screen until something meaningful comes to mind or I simply write about the previous day's ordeal like I did this morning!
