Writing is Easy

I was in the middle of Ijtima Sanawi (Annual Meeting) DSN when one of our member contacted me, telling her surprise that many members in this club can write an article. But she said hopelessly that she can't do that because she is very busy. At the end she said, she actually does not have any idea to write. (oh my God....)

For the first statement, I answered that there is nothing we can do, except utilizing rest time. I gave her advice to use every means at every moment. Most of us must have a mobile phone and every mobile phone must have word processor (in blackberry it is called memopad, in I-pad called Notes).  You can write briefly what you have in mind -as a draft for your article-in your mobile phone, without waiting to be at home or office and put it in your laptop or computer. Trust me, you will lost the idea before you get there (in my son 's word gareeeeeeeeng...). If handpone cannot be used, we can use a peace of paper to write the concept. Just an idea or concept. If you feel you are so busy, find your leasure time, or when you are on your trip to working place, or when you are accompanying your children playing in playground. If you feel your husband curious about what you are doing (or even jealous with your mobile phone...hiks) tell him frankly that you are writing an article and will ask his comment. By involving him in the discussion, trust me, he will help you. (trainer mode-on....ting!)



For the second  question, I commented that, at every action in your daily life so many ideas will come up. Every day one of following emotions must be experienced: Happy, angry, disappointed, sad, like, love and so on. Why don't you write the feeling as it comes to you, why it comes, when, how come, to whom the feeling is addressed and all W-H questions apply. At every minute an idea, thought and concept may appear in your mind. Please write it down and don't let it disappear. But not too much since it will cause you to lost your time. You will find yourself, after a week, full with sooooo many ideas to write.

If you have already many ideas to write, choose any one of them and write. Please note, never write too much. Just 3 or 4 paragraphs. Never force yourself if you feel nothing else to write. Send the writing to this blog or groups. Once it is published you will feel very happy and want to write again. Then repeat the process for another article. So far we do not limit what topics should be written by members. so write down what you want write. It is training blog, man, you are free to write anything.  We will help you in correcting the mistakes....

So, writing is easy. The keys for it are only the willingness and  good time management. If you don't have these two conditions, you will never be able to write. Just like what proverb says, think globally, act locally and do it now.
