There are times when I find it difficult to come up with a subject to write about on here, but the solution isn’t too difficult — just dive in.
In the book The War of Art by Steven Pressfield, he shares a great example:
Someone once asked Somerset Maugham if he wrote on a schedule or only when struck by inspiration. “I write only when inspiration strikes,” he replied. “Fortunately it strikes every morning at nine o’clock sharp.”
As I mentioned in my tips for consistent blogging, I find it helpful to always be looking for ideas and jotting them down. However, having some ideas jotted down is not the same as having a fully written post. For that, I just need to do it.
Sometimes I feel inspired to sit down and dig through those ideas, and sometimes I don’t. Even if I don’t feel particularly inspired, I find that if I just sit down and get writing anyhow, it all tends to work out.
