The Values You Hold Toward Writing Are the Ones You Slowly Build Your Life Around

Pay your mind to witness them because you will eventually add even more to it

Values are the core of both your personality and the life you lead.

Some of the values are built in childhood, and many are formed at different parts of life as you move. It originates from the belief that stands as rock solid in all circumstances.

The only values that I could understand and observe were related to the elders, studying on a serious note, and some religious activities to keep daily life peaceful and hopeful with faith .

If I see, now, they still have a good and prominent place as they did decades back. You, too, must be holding some of your core values. Actually, it is good to have some of them, recognise them and see their importance in your daily lives. They regulate our days slowly and comfortably to a certain extent.

These days, doing writing practice has also taken its place in my daily life, along with other routine activities and existing values.

Listen to your inner self :

Hardly ever did I get to understand what and the way I wanted. Rather, it was about whatever came to me.

And I did not like all of them because I had my choices and my mind wanted them differently.

I often came up with the question, “What life am I leading if I do not listen and comply with my own points?”

I do not need to nod every time, especially when I do not quite agree. I have my own voice and mind, who have my say regardless of whatever is stated or imposed upon.

What you want to retain, learn more and share across:

Life throws many things at us from time to time. Not all serve or be received in the same way.

Some remain with us forever, some are liked or praised and touch us deeply and stay with us longer, but some lose their stances without much notice

Here, the writing habit comes as an invincible act. It provides you with the mode, the reasons underneath and also helps in enhancing your expression.

After continuing with writing for the last two years, I realise what I have missed by not building this habit earlier.

In these two years, I have been able to scribble about my beautiful memories, learning from the past and d present actions, lost and departed relationships and even more.

To put it straight, I could never imagine I had so much depth of emotions within myself, and also I carry some amount of useful experience that could be shared for the benefit of at least a handful of people.

You can acquire a skill with your genuine interest and practice

I considered writing as something of a natural skill that someone is born with. That very thought actually made me pretty restricted in my approach to conceiving the same in the first place.

I have been able to reach this point in building the habit, and showing up speaks just one thing loudly.

And that is mindful practice, which is the only prerequisite, and the rest are all things like talent or idea formation, which are built up on the go.

Difficult tasks could be handled:

Regardless of the delays or whatever excuses you tell yourself inside your mind just points to one thing, and that is you tag the task as something ‘ not-normal’.

I reached at a point in time when I, myself, closed all the doors for not taking any of those excuses.

I did it by putting a line or two or a paragraph. And that’s it.

It was not about deciding right or wrong way, but just putting and continuing with those shaky and unstable baby steps.

Connecting this to life :

What you do regularly is a major part of your life. It may be sleeping, brushing your teeth, praying, driving or simply scrolling, they actually make life, and so also your belief as well.

It is all about the set of activities that you repeat, stay involved for a longer time, and that gives or serves you something or the other in return.

At times, you feel frustrated for whatever reason, lose hope or get into a bad mood. When you hold the values that you have developed and received through building one of the habits (here it is writing), you’d better know how you should react and deal with them.

Sometimes I ask myself, “Can values be created from the mundane activities like brushing or taking a bath, etc? Or they could be made only from the mindful habits.

To the above, the only answer that I get is “ mundane activities are required, and they teach us perseverance in their own way, but the deliberate habits go beyond that what teaching multiple aspects.
