Thanks a lot for the newsletter! Very insightful points. I like your thoughts on writing. I wish more of us subscribed to this idea of making writing into a regular habit. I'm curious though. You mentioned that you struggle to write. I wonder how you've written 100+ articles. Also, any tips on building this habit? I myself have tried a lot, but this habit never really picked up.
I wish I had an easy solution to make writing into a regular habit. Had it been easy, everybody would have done it. I myself have struggled with this for years. For me, committing to publish on a regular basis worked. This only worked because I had something to write about to start with.
Although I avoid giving specific advice, if I have to make an exception in this case, I would say this. Choose a subject you love and want to learn more about (maths, physics, business, philosophy, fishing, dating, anything). Pick certain topics and write about them.
Tomorrow if I have to start writing on Physics, I'll pick topics such as force, magnetism, energy, electricity, etc. It doesn't matter if others have already written on them. When you are starting off, you are writing for yourself. To cement your own knowledge. You are your audience. Write for yourself.
