Today’s tip is to write. They say, “I don’t have anything to write.” Tell them, “Write that you don’t have anything to write.”

It is impossible that you cannot find anything to write. I go on writing several pages and my fingers give up yet the ideas keep on gushing.

Have you ever tried writing your daily happenings? You might enjoy it. Don’t care a toss about style or grammatical errors just develop the habit of penning your thoughts and write for yourself. You will find your writing is your companion. How lovely would it be, I really cannot tell.

I am craving to write a lot more here, but I have to kill my desire - as your time is important.
