You can lower the hurdle of "writing" yourself

Do you

easily

come up with ideas?


For a writer,

having ideas or not

is a challenge.


When writing on note,

everyone thinks about this at some point.


That is "ideas".


Hmm,

I have nothing to write about...


There must be

many people who have felt


that frustration.


Of course, I have them too.


However,

let me be clear.


That hurdle of

"not being able to write."


Actually,


the one making it high

is often yourself.



You have "things you want to write"


Try remembering

the time when you

think of ideas.


From the beginning

if the topic is decided

it is a happy thing.


Thinking, "Today,

I think I'll write this article!"

you will be able to

happily

type on your keyboard.


When you have a topic

without worrying

sentences will come to mind.


However,

it is also a fact that

you cannot write happily every time.


The problem is,


It's when you have no ideas.


Most people

in front of their computer


will try to brainstorm ideas.


"Hmm, was there anything?"


"I already wrote about that topic the other day..."


It's something like that.


...


Yes,


stop right here.


The hurdle of writing

is one of the reasons


for this.


It is the assumption that "you must not write about the same topic."
It is a misconception.


Yes,


you can write about topics


you have written about in the past again.



It is okay to write about the same topic


"No, if I write the same thing as before,

it will be boring!"


"The readers will get mad at me!"


You might think so.


But,

it's okay.


In fact,

I am writing this.


I have written about this

"cannot write" angle


many times.


Try looking back

at it later.


Surely,

articles about finding

topics will come up.


So,


I want you to

not misunderstand, but


100% copy-pasting is

not allowed.


Absolutely not.


What I mean by

writing about the same topic is,


not copy-pasting, but


trying to write it

again from scratch.


"I've written about this topic before..."

If you feel like it,


you can write it again.


Because,


it won't be

a 100% identical article to the previous one.


It is impossible for it to be

word-for-word the same


unless you copy and paste it.



Your "current" information will be added on top,


so unless it is a copy-paste,

the content will never be

100% the same.


Because,


the you of the past and

the you of today are different.


As long as you are alive,

every day you are showered with

information.


This note is also

like that, isn't it?


Interesting articles, or

articles that were helpful.


There are also articles that


really touch your heart.


Yes,

every day something

stirs your emotions,


and although it is little by little,


you are changing.


If you think that writing about


the same topic means you can only

write the same thing,


you are overthinking it.


In fact,

you will understand once you try writing.


The content

might be similar.


However,

the phrasing and the emotional parts


will definitely change.


That is only natural,


because your way of thinking

changes every day.


It is similar to

taking a bath.


If you group it as

"taking a bath,"


it is the same daily routine.


However,

While taking a shower

The things you think about should change every time.


I think about different things

every day while taking a shower.


✅ A fun scene from the day
✅ Content from a book I learned from
✅ A memorable song I heard on the radio
✅ Reflections on a mistake I made today


The things that come to mind then

are different every time.


Aren't you

the same?


Every day,

the song you hum


should be a different one.



Writing is

the same.


The moment you write,

your information is added to it.


✅ Learned new vocabulary
✅ Read a new book
✅ Talked with a new follower
✅ Read a new article


It might be a slight change.

However,

you are steadily changing.


The tone of

your writing will change a little.


Do not fear that

it will become the same writing.


It will be fine.


Because it won't be the same.


Even if it happens to be the same,

it is not a problem.


The reason is,


there are people who

will see your article

for the first time.


Even if it is "the same as before"

to you,


to a first-time reader,

it is "content they are reading for the first time."


What you must not forget is,


that your followers

It means not everything.


Besides that


the people who see our articles


are still

many.


Therefore,

to have them seen,


is to write.


The secret to continuing to write happily is,


to make the

hurdle of writing incredibly low.


Yes,

It is okay to write

about the same things as before.


You don't have to

force yourself into

very hard mode.


It's perfectly fine.
