Why is it that when I have a hobby, I still find hundreds of other things I think are more important and I decide to do them and forget about the thing I love doing. I know that I’m not alone in this, I already know a few people who do so and I do think there are a few of you who have the same problem, right? Or am I completely alone in this?
I noticed that I haven’t told you what the things I love doing most are, well the things I love doing are writing and drawing, there is just something in there that just makes the noise in my head quite down. I love creating a story by the pen and the inner peace I get (the fact there are no thoughts) when I’m drawing. So why I’m not doing this more, probably because I don’t give myself the time to do so. But the point of writing this post is telling about what is going to change.
I’m going to write more! At least I’m going to try to get this done. First, I need a pretty notebook, which you see in the picture above, I got this one for my birthday from my brother, Peter, and am very happy with this. What is better than a fresh new notebook that is open to all sorts of stories, it’s like a new beginning with all its opportunities and possibilities and a bright new chance to become a brand new person (or am I now exaggerating? I just get overly excited whenever I receive a new notebook). The second thing I think is necessary if I want to achieve this goal of writing more is demand myself to write every day (or at least try to), even if it is just for one minute.
Of course, most of the writing will be just for myself, because I think most of it will be rubbish, but whenever I write something that I’m pretty pleased about I will share that with you, if anyone is curious about what it will do to effect this blog.
Is anyone of you struggle with finding the time or energy to do what you love most?
I completely agree!! A fresh new note book brings inspirations and excitement!! Although, often, a blank page can be pretty overwhelming at times. Pushing through and getting started is usually the only way to break through the doubts, usually once the words flow, there's no stopping!
