We all want the complicated world we live in to make sense. So we tell ourselves stories to fill in the gaps of what are effectively blind spots.
Life isn’t about finding yourself but about creating yourself.
At its core, intelligence can be viewed as a process that converts unstructured information into useful and actionable knowledge.
Writing is prayer, spirituality, self-discovery, communication, therapy, connection.
Just tell your story. All of it. Forget the strategies. Start in the wrong place and end in the long place. Ramble. The goal is to return to that moment as best as possible in order to find its meaning.
If you want your story to linger with your audience (and that should be your goal), you should end in a place that is moving, vulnerable, or revealing, or establishes connection with the audience.
