You Don’t Have New Content Because You’ve Not Been Reading.

It lies in what you consume

At this point, my Medium articles are just advice to me. Whoever looks forward to my articles every time they come here, I want to say a big thank you because these content are just personal advice to me, and at times, they aren’t meant for anyone else but me. But if you find it helpful, by all means, keep coming back.

Moving on, I bought some books a few days back, and I forget about that feeling that comes when you read a new book — the constant mind-explosion that comes when you learn something new — that makes you wonder what you’ve been doing all your life. You’d start asking yourself why you didn’t know it all this while.

Then you stop in between, and you start to think about what you just read. You begin to see life in newer lenses. This is how I’ve been feeling these past days, and it’s one of the reasons I look forward to getting new books, to get a taste of that mind-blowing feeling.

Most importantly, when I read new books, I get more topics to write about.

As a writer, you need to continuously feed yourself with new and quality content because if you’re not taking in quality, you can’t deliver quality to your readers.

Writers, in general, should be avid readers. It’s part of the job requirement.

Recently, I’ve been trying to make my articles a bit shorter to get my point out there quickly — and this article won’t be an exception.

Although the art of writing itself has improved my thinking, I won’t have developed the creativity and imaginations to come up with concepts and explain it if I didn’t read.

I’ve also noticed that when you read, you can easily formulate topics and keep adding meat to it. This is because of how much you have expanded your mind.

I can’t count how many times when I write or speak to a friend, and in the process, I wonder how I knew and remembered this thing I’m talking about.

We need to give our brains more respect because it can handle so much more than we imagine.

There’s the myth that we use only 10% of our brains, and if that’s true, I wonder what possibilities are open to us if we used 100% of it. Because 10% alone already does amazing things.
