Writing for others

When we try to write what we think others will like two things happen. Usually, this happens when we read criticism or we look at the stats.

One you’ll never know and therefore your writing suffers, and you keep trying to guess, to please.

Two, you are not being your true self. So what is the point if you don’t write what is your essence?

Write for yourself, even if no one else likes it, it’s your voice.

It’s them

If we are moaning, complaining, criticising and judging others, remember it is ourselves who are suffering, we are the ones trapped by our ego and the story of ‘poor little’ me.

Others are never the challenge, it is our own internal soundtrack that torments us.

When we free ourselves from the story and become conscious and present, the torment subsidies and we no longer look to blame others. We accept what is, and have peace in this moment.
