What to Write?

Jul 25
1 min read

What do you write when you can't think of what to write but are committed to writing and publishing at least 250 words?


Who knows? I guess you just write and see what comes to you. For me, right now, I know I have to write something. While my 30-day challenge is probably over or about to be over, I am still committed to writing and publishing my thoughts and opinions.


There is an empowering thing about writing and publishing your work, even if there are no eyes on it yet. I have found that it has made visibility less scary, and I care less about what people think about my writing and if they even read it. It is empowering to commit to something and see it through just for you. It has built my self-trust and confidence and just belief that you can really do anything if you put your mind to it. At the same time, anything that is not doing the thing is not doing the thing, so do the thing.


I realize, too, that I am still finding my voice and how I want to write and what I write about, and GrandValli is still forming in reality as I do this, and that is okay. We'll see what happens in the next few weeks and months. If anything, the challenge has encouraged me to challenge myself in other ways and just push to see what I am capable of getting done. I think we should all do small challenges, then do more and more, and keep going.
