A simple linear advice to persons of all walks of life, viz focus, discipline, love your work/hobby, and do it for yourself and be happy. Que sera sera - what will be will be.
"To write anything of value, you will need to have a well-stocked mind. To have a well-furnished mind, you should read widely in areas that interest you."
Loved this and everything you wrote in this article. Thank you for validating why one should write despite having enough writers out there in the world. For a long time, I haven't written because of the fear of being judged for bad writing and I feel like I have finally developed some thick skin to write even when people make fun of non-insightful, dumb or boring stuff that I write.
Thanks for reading Ekta! All I can say is that no one is thinking about us as much as we think they are thinking about us. So let your wings fly because everyone is too focused on themselves :)
hi Ankush, After attempting multiple times I have again started to write. According to you is it better to write on paper or digitally. As I have a mental block and always charmed by physical writing as it helps me to go deep but I find it difficult to sustain. Digital writing is easy but I feel it's difficult to go deep. Please share your thoughts
Loved reading this letter to your younger self! Having followed your journey of writing, it's been incredible to watch how you've grown through the process - writing is tighter, ideas have so much more clarity and of course, all the professional opportunities that have presented themselves to you because of this commitment. You're a walking reminder of the incredible benefits of writing :)

Hi Ankur,
Even I do a mix of both, physical an digital.
Maybe your physical writing can be the writing you would like to keep with yourself and the digital writing you can write and share with others.
Thay way you can keep both practices.
The physical writing will also keep you sharp and also serve as a digital detox.
This is a really beautiful piece, enjoyed the content, and really liked the way of writing
Keep up the great work :)
Thanks a lot for reading and sharing your views Abhishek!
