A blank page is a scary thing to look at in the morning.
It’s a daunting sign of the task at hand. It shows there is work to be done. Work sorting through thoughts, making decisions and putting oneself inside out for the world to see.
A blank page is not often a friend, but rather a challenger, asking you, “Will you rise to the occasion?”
It’s in that moment that a choice must be made - to start typing, or to turn ones attention elsewhere, to start scrolling.
Typing consists of putting thoughts into order and making sense of them. Scrolling perceives others’ thoughts in no particular order. One is easier than the other, yet there is a time for both, because even in order to scroll, you have to type.
What’s in your head is good enough. It doesn’t have to come out perfectly; it just has to come out, one word at a time. Sort out the results later.
