Writing Past Fear: 10 Strategies to Overcome Anxiety and Begin Writing
Summary:
Many people desire to write, but fear often holds them back. This fear creates endless doubts: "What if I'm no good?" or "What if I'm wasting my time?" Fortunately, this monster can be defeated. Here are ten ways to overcome fear and start writing:
1. Embrace Handwriting
There's something freeing about writing longhand. Grab a piece of paper and jot down your thoughts. Don't worry about brilliance; just let your ideas flow.
2. Email Yourself
Use email to draft stories or describe events. It's an informal way to practice storytelling without worrying about an audience?"since you're the recipient!
3. Commit Before You’re Ready
Tell someone you're a writer and let them assign you a task. Whether it's writing a menu or a story, reward yourself for taking on the challenge.
4. Face Your Fears
List all your fears about writing and then find ways to counter them. Remember, it's just a draft, and imperfection is okay.
5. Adopt a Different Persona
Try writing in the style of your favorite author or era. Mimic their rhythms and patterns to experiment with your writing style.
6. Use a Postcard for Inspiration
Look at a postcard and jot down ideas about its image. This exercise is about sparking creativity, not filling space.
7. Create a Mantra for Imperfection
Remind yourself that bad writing can be revised, but a blank page can't. Keep positive affirmations handy to combat fear.
8. Remember the Process
The books and articles you read have been through multiple revisions. Your work will undergo the same process, so relax and focus on progress, not perfection.
9. See Fear as Caring
Fear can indicate that you care about your work. Use it to guide you and ensure your writing is the best it can be.
10. Procrastinate Later
Push aside worries for now. Prioritize writing and deal with concerns later.
By following these strategies, you can push past fear and embrace your passion for writing.
