The advantage of writing

Bob is a nice guy. He is so simple that he cannot conceal his problems within him. Anybody can read his face. The day before yesterday I met him and soon realized he was in a problem. I said- Hi Bob, What’s the problem? May I be with you? Bob smiled and told nothing. If you don’t like to share and the problem is still hurting you then write down it-I suggested him. I learnt this from the great Dale Carnegie. His advice is if you are in a problem and getting no solution then simply write down the problem and the possible ways which you think fit to solve the problem. Yes, it works.

Why don’t you write? -the great poet of India Rabindranath Tagore once told. When we speak it mixes in the air but when we write it exists before us-he added. Yes, writing is a great habit that you should always adopt-says my psychologist friend, it helps you to evaporate the tension and anxiety very easily and helps to solve the problem greatly. Dale Carnegie sited one such example of someone who participated in his class and shared his experience with all. The man said – previously in our concern we used to spend out much time in the meeting. We used to be gathered in meeting at a regular interval, we used to discuss but we rare could solve our problems and as we could not reach to any conclusion we had to meet again and start a discussion and the result remained same. So later we decided to appear in the meeting writing down the problems and its probable solutions according to everyone’s perception. It was a great magic, we could end a meeting quickly than before and at the same time, it could be completed with a definite conclusion.

In our daily life as an ordinary person, we may have to face some problems that hit us greatly though it may not have the importance to others. If it cannot be solved by us, soon it becomes a matter of our anxiety and grievance. In the time it becomes the route of our mental and physical problem.

Regular writing in a dairy has many good effects. First of all, it can be treated as a ready reckoner of our past incidents and sometimes be very relishing as in course of time for our past incidents, as these are gradually wiped out from our memory.

Then it can be said that ideas or some notions which we have in mind can be clearer if we discuss on it and when we write down our thoughts it becomes more vivid than ever. Next, we become more rational when we write it down, because it easily can point out the flaws. It is a place where we can share our thoughts or ideas without any hesitation. It works as a valve to release our mental pressure too.

It is a place where we can shape our creativity. Everyone has a power to create if we cannot get any other avenue for creation a diary can be a place of creativity. Many great novels are thus created, such as Anna Frank’s diary or Alexander Solzhenitsyn’s Cancer Ward. Alexander wrote it in imprisonment. Anna wrote when she kept herself in hiding from Nazi-occupied Hungary. Both started writing to keep themselves out of anxiety and despair.

So let us start writing whenever we can make time to write.
