I can totally identify with that phenomenon referred to as “writer’s block.” I have been giving thought to the subject and content of this month’s post for weeks. And yet, creative as I consider myself to be, I have not come up with anything genius.
When I think a bit more about it, though, I consider that this block is not real but imagined. Perhaps it is not the result of some external force but rather a projection of our thoughts or apprehension about writing something “good.” After all, I want to add value to your life. To some extent, I seek your approval. So, I feel compelled to write something, well– compelling!
But alas, I’m going to keep it real and let you know that writer’s block (at least mine) is self-imposed. I believe that what opens the tap to release the creative energy is a change in perspective and simply doing what you know you do well, anyway. No doubts. No second-guessing. No block. Just write. Edit later, if at all. Let it flow.
That’s all.
