I have been there. I understand how it feels not being able to write.

I figured out six ways to deal with it. It might work for you too.

1. Headline is the movie trailer.

Get everyone excited about it.

Before getting anyone excited about it, first, be excited about writing it. The headline should make writing the article feel easy for you. Doesn’t matter whether the title is great for readers. If it is great for you, your story will be great and you can then tweak your title to match it.

2. Start with your story.

What’s the transformation you had? How did the transformation occur This acts like a prompt.

Your story is vulnerable and vulnerability leads to flow states. Flow states make writing fun and easy. That’s your unfair advantage as a writer.

Stories make you relatable. Relatable means we connect. Relatable means we memorize it. We enjoy telling stories because it’s the truth. Our time flows easily, you enjoy, and the task gets done.

3. Freewrite.
