In answer to Todd: Two things why writing is now so important to me

Why writing is now so important to me?

Because writing is thinking.

While I write things, I think about them. It’s a moment I take in a day to think about things that fly in my mind.

Sometime I wrote my short and long term goals on a sheet. I check them; I check what I’m doing right now to reach them. While I’m writing them down, I think about them, I make them clear in my mind.

Because writing is learning.

While I write things, I learn from them. Sometimes, things will emerge from my unconsciousness: I’ll learn from them. It will give a new angle of attack to understand the thoughts I was writing about.

I started to read Page after Page by Heather Sellers. It’s one of the reason why I wrote this little post and why I’ll probably wrote others in the next days. It’s a really inspirating self help book on writing. It’s the same type of book as Bird by Bird by Ann Lamott.
