'Blocked'
So much to do... so little time...
I can't even think anything creative...
What do I write about?
I need some time off for myself...
These were, primarily, the thoughts that were lingering in my mind all through-out February and March. With my new job, family commitments and college stuff, I gave up on my ability to write and thinking the creative way. I was kind-off having the 'writers' block' or lets' say for me, the 'blogger's block'. I know, I know, giving up is not an option as most experts say, but its okay, its like taking a back-seat for some time, thinking it through and coming back with a sorted mind in place. It has been whirl-wind start to 2018's first three months in terms of enjoying all the other things that were going around in my life. But yes, today, I just decided to open my laptop and go ahead with it. I sat blankly in front of the screen for 20 minutes thinking 'what do I write', and I decided to write about why I've been off for 2 months since the last blog that came up.
I went through such a 'blocked' phase because, apart from all the other things that were going on, there were, or rather, there are certain thoughts that are occupying the most part of my mind, and sometimes I feel that I should really find answers for myself, and the other times I feel that I should just let it go with the flow. I really just couldn't figure out what to do, or rather where to start all the things that I want to do in my life.
*Realization Sessions -
I realized that I wanted to write 'more'. More in terms of variety of contexts. I didn't want to limit myself just to corporate and management related topics, and hence, I was highly demotivated about writing on this blog. Then I used to think, how about I start recording 'podcasts' as a way to reach more people, but its yet just a thought. Then, I wanted to get into some 'weekendpreneur' mode with my friend, but that too, is just a 'thought'. I wanted to learn new courses related to my field of profession, I wanted to do something to give back to the society, I wanted to write short-stories, I wanted to travel and write about it. Basically, I wanted to multi-task a million things and portray it to everyone through my blogs - hence the feeling, 'so much to do, so little time' and 'where do I start' !!
So! After weeks of contemplating thoughts and still not having the way out sorted, I think I'm glad that I took the first step by getting back at writing and put it all out. May be, this way, I'll note down of what all I want to do and wish to achieve, and start with Page 1 of balancing things out - working towards unblocking the blocked phase!
Well, its a random post after ages, so I'm going to be unapologetic about it. Hope you'll have a great weekend ahead, and find a way out if you're in the realization sessions like mine!
Much Love, Positivity and Gratitude!
