writing - major answers

All of us are blessed with the thoughts oriented minds. Thoughts come in mind and vanish. Ideas come in mind and vanish. To make that thoughts or ideas stay in your mind, you need to do something; that something is writing.

Why to write?

To hold on thoughts which vanish, write! Writing makes that thoughts live longer than they stay in mind. I personally feel that the written things can be passed to next generation without you. For oral transmission of thoughts needs at least one learner and one teacher. Holding on to your ideas will end with you. Spreading it with appropriate audiences is the right thing to do.

Sudha Murthy, author and co-founder of Infosys says, “I can’t hold on my stories, I just need to express them to somebody. Telling one to one can’t serve the purpose of distribution of knowledge. So, I started writing.” I don’t say that everybody should publish what you are writing. But express yourself.

Once you start writing your own way, you will start growing as a person. Few of the researches show that writing your problems on a paper and fire that paper away can solve the problem sooner than holding them to you. Similarly, writing down the happiness, your blessings can multiply themselves by reading them again and again. It also brings back the memories by reading it.

What to write?

To begin with, you’re daily, weekly to do list, your appointments, your goals, ambitions, targets to achieve, write them bold. If you want to write, you’re daily routine, like a diary, where you write about, what you did, what happened today, light minded things. You can write about your experiences, your hobbies, your skills and how you developed them. You can write short stories that you heard somewhere or made them to tell your kids. You can write about your travels, your food, and your lifestyle. Anything that connects to your soul, you can write!

When to write?

Start with now! There is no other good time to begin than today. Since, we are discussing about writing purposely, decide the most non accommodative timing suitable for you.

Once you decide what to write, then it’s not difficult to decide when! I would suggest, write every day. You write four lines or four pages as per your convenience, but write daily.

If you are a morning person, after finishing with your exercise and breakfast, you can write. If you are able to write in a day with some peace, fix that suitable time for you. If you have no time, whole day, just before going to sleep, instead of swiping up with instagram, why don’t you write for 10 minutes?

If you have willed, you will get it done. Everybody follows their routine. You can decide on which time is suitable for you. Get a calm mind, clean surroundings and your diary with pen.

Where to write?

There are many mediums available with which you can write now a days- tab, mobile phone, laptop etc. but prefer handwriting. When you write with your hand, your brain concentrates on thoughts and not on multiple distractions that gadgets brings. Hand written things memorizes earlier than typed ones. So, write with your hand!
