Silly Writer, Overthinking Is Holding You Hostage
The secret to letting your words flow
For the longest time, I kept my words to myself.
I wrote them in my journal. I typed them in my Notes app. But I never released them into the wild.
The reason may be something you wrestle with too. It’s one of the biggest bottlenecks writers face these days.
Today, I’ll help you win that battle like I did.
You are the only obstacle
Writing gives me an outlet I couldn’t replace.
I’m a designer, and I love design. But something powerful happens when I let my words flow in a draft.
I’m not worried about what it looks like, how the colors complement each other, or how much border radii I should use.
It’s just me and my words.
Most people blame external sources for their lack of success. They believe that someone or something holds them back from their goals.
The truth? You are the only roadblock in your way.
Your perception of your ability to achieve your goals is completely up to you. When I realized no one was coming to save me, I grabbed life by the horns.
