Stop Thinking, Start Writing **January 28, 2022** The hands of the clock kept running and chasing time, yet my mind was still stuck at one point. The inevitable writer's block had just played and it seemed like my eyes were glued on a certain screen and my mind stopped processing and formulating thoughts as they just went in and out of my mind and were too tough to form them into words. Thoughts were overwhelming, yet, they were scattered and can not be written down. My fingers just kept tapping this cellular phone and I seemed so lost and didn't know where to stop. I kept juggling from one tab to another, searching prompts on Random Generator. The more I juggled, the more complicated it was to think and form content. Until I gave up and opted to let this day pass and my drafted articles would be my savior. I took a breather and A Break From Thinking Through Reading, A Writer's Struggles that will never end as they would keep coming when emptiness takes over. https://read.cash/@Jane/take-a-break-from-thinking-through-reading-a-writers-struggles-eb7b77d6 And a few minutes before the long hand of the clock hits noon, I came across with @Eunoia's article about, Writing Is Either Destiny Or A Challenge, Make It Yours? Then a light bulb went on in my head and his article just gave me an idea of what to write down. https://read.cash/@Eunoia/writing-is-either-destiny-or-a-challenge-make-it-yours-2ccab341#comment-09eb6903 I then asked myself, why make things complicated when I have everything in my own feed? What's Holding You Back? Unblock Your Writer's Block! What are you waiting for? Stop thinking, start writing! After several hours of struggling, I settled down in one place, and finally, The Will To Write was resumed and I just Let Everything Flow. https://read.cash/@Jane/whats-holding-you-back-unblock-your-writers-block-9907db70 https://read.cash/@Jane/the-will-to-write-30ddf5d8 https://read.cash/@Jane/let-everything-flow-6543e67a Indeed, we all must learn how to write as it is one of the basic skills we have to acquire as a person. From when we were young until we grow old, writing is and will always be part of our lives. However, writing and making content and blogs are two different stories. We can write anything, everywhere, at any time when it comes to ordinary writing. Yet, we can't write easily at any time when it comes to content writing. Just like many of us on this platform, writing wasn't my forte too before I stepped into this digital world. This is either a challenge or a destiny, but both I should say. We were destined to step on this platform to challenge our capabilities to write. And due to our common denominator, we accepted that challenge until writing becomes our forte. From Reluctant To Versatile Writers, The Art Of Shaping Words has molded us to become real writers in our own genres. https://read.cash/@Jane/from-reluctant-to-versatile-writers-the-art-of-shaping-words-eb1cde3f And it is true that, When Writing Becomes Your Passion, Your Mind And Fingers Will Work Like A Keyboard. Although thinking about what to write each day is another challenge that we have to withstand. But when writer's block takes over, we just have to unblock it shortly before it totally ruined our motivation to write. There are a lot of stories to tell and a lot of inspiration around where we could get an idea of what to write about. We just need to be imaginative and Be Creative In Writing. https://read.cash/@Jane/when-writing-becomes-your-passion-your-mind-and-fingers-will-work-like-a-keyboard-2dedf277 https://read.cash/@Jane/be-creative-in-writing-e7a72e99 So if you feel like your mind is blocked and your thoughts are stuck, stop thinking and start writing. Shortly, those thoughts would be released and your fingers would correspond to your mind. And just let your imagination travel farther and express your thoughts through your fingers. Instead of stressing out yourself of thinking about what to write each day, why don't you read other articles or check your previous articles? You wouldn't know what reading will give you. And why don't you try collecting your articles' titles and form a story by connecting them? Just give it a try! Happy writing and thanks for reading. *Drafted this yesterday after reading Eunioa's article.*

Nice advice ate Jane, this will help me what article to write next.
Thanks for the idea Jane. Reading the article of others really helps talaga
Dun tlga ako minsan kumukuha ng idea
That's what I usually do. Through reading other articles gives us idea what to write. I am not into writing too I just accepted the challenge and I learn from other writers how to write
Same same 🙂
We make things complicated when we actually have a wealth of things to see and write about hehe. I just realized this too after creating my post for the day, lol!
Oh.. I'll check it
I agree as it's really hard to formulate what to write sometimes. There are times I am trying but end up deleting what I had written.
Sakin nmnhndi ntatapus.. Haha
hindi naman halata
Reading others article will give us better clue / topic to write some thing when we stayed blank mind. Writing whatever comes in mind is better then stress out.
This great!
Same here thinking about a topic to write always give me headache especially these few last days of the month and that's why I decided to just go with a flow snd write what my fingers and mind wants to write
Yeah.. Just random but with sense
All writers at one point or another experience writer's block, I used to think it will never happen to me when I started writing, but it happens frequently these days 😆 I guess it's caused by stress and the brain trying to take a break from the unending cycle of writing everyday
Haha.. I guess that is the same thing my brain wants me to do 🤣
Hahhaa through your hands that keep typing will give automatically a topic to discussed. . Ito ginagawa ko khit wla akong topic bsta nandun na ako sa write an article hahah ae parang magic yan.
Kya nga.. Kht random lng. Basta meron at my sense haha
Hahaha totoo yan
I loved it, it's actually happening most of my time. Don't be stressed by thinking and absorbing too many things. Relax and find something from others. Look for scattered ideas from our previous and precious articles. Do look for some interesting writing and add everything into pieces hehe.
Exactly.. We just need to realize that we can get ideas from our previous articles 🤣
In all honesty, this article seems more challenging to me than anything. Thanks for it I will keep on writing that's for sure
Welcome
This is helpful. Good job 💚
Yeah.. This is true and it does help. Thanks #Peace #OkanlaDavid
Woah this could help, I also experienced this often. Thank you for the idea madam!
The past few months has been tough for me. I wasn't able to finish things here and I ended up deleting my drafted articles kasi wala akong maidugtong na talaga. I can't focus. That was the hardest part. I think I lost my writing skills. Still, I'm trying my best to gain back my matabang brain sa pagsusulat. Lol! I can't even write comments in full English.. Hahaha! Then upon scrolling on Tiktok, ang dami kong mga songs na naririnig which motivated me to write. Now, I have a topic building up in my mind but I need to finish it first in my imagination para matapos ko talaga sya when I write it. haha! Kaloka!
I'm newbie so I don't feel that feeling yet. But this will be great advise from someone who use the platform for so long.
This is true. Sometimes prompts actually work for me, they mostly give me other ideas though but most times, I just start writing it the idea comes to me along the way
Masubukan nga to, heheh.. Kaso baka ang ending nun sa akin eh maging comedy lalo na yun mga first articles ko ang gamitin, hhahah
Hard writing but you nailed it. Well I'm blank today.
Thank you for the advice, sometimes when my mind is really blank, I just really take ideas from others. This is challenging for me because most of my articles are purely Fiction stories
Let our fingers do the works no. That's what I doing nakaka survive nan iz me. Yon lang di ganito kaganda sa inyo ang result huehue. Ang hirap lang aguy
Just start in one ideas and when I start writing quickly ideas came out.
Ako alam ko di tlga ako makapagsulat pag stress ng sobra hehe. May times din tlga na andami kong gustong topic pero di ko matapos, mnsan hanggang title lng. Kaya mdalas kung ano nlng tlga nasa isip ko yun nlng isusulat ko. 😅
Most times I fall into writer's block but later on after sitting down and reading my old articles and people's article,I try my best to form a topic and come up with a content.
Instant! Nagawa ko na rin writing prompt na toh, next time if wala na nmn maisip haha!
That's a good advice for someone like me, I generally don't get much topic to write. Reading some articles would definitely give me some ideas on topics. But I spent most of the times on watching memes nowadays😑
🤣🤣
You remind of today I got alot things in my head , thinking about article but I couldn't write it down because i am quite busy
In fact, sometimes it happens to me. I do not agree with the flow of thought. I will write something and arrange it in advance. But I write, I write, I don't write anymore. Thoughts change.
Very good kaajo sa dugtong dugtong uyy. May it be title or words.
I haven't tried this but wow nice ang pagka dugtong mo friend, I hope if soon i will try this mines are good too
My writers block gets bad some days. Sometimes I start typing an article and then I read it back and think "who would want to read this?" so I delete it 🤣
I have experienced writer's block and it is dreadful. Especially when what you want to write doesn't find Expression. But, recently, I have less and less of those as I read through articles and engage other writer's works. That has been helpful.
