how to stop negative thoughts
Positive Affirmations: First, say positive affirmations before you write. Remind yourself about your passion for writing, and reflect on how your blog impacts your followers positively.
Reframing: Whenever a negative thought crosses your mind (like “No one will read my blog”), immediately reframe it with a positive thought: “At least someone will find my content useful.”
Mindfulness Practiced Through Meditation: Mindfulness will help keep you present and focused more on the process than worried about the outcome or what others are thinking.
Set Realistic Expectations: Don’t compare your blogging journey to that of another blogger. Set small, attainable goals, and celebrate progress, even if it’s seemingly insignificant.
Keep your writing for yourself first: Be sure to create a blog anybody would do for fun. It necessarily lessens the pressure of seeking approval, of the fear of failure.
Maintain a Habit: Keep certain hours set aside for writing, forever. Such a routine would help you attain consistency and, therefore, lessen the occasional self-doubt.
Pay Attention to Positive Influences: Surround yourself with supportive bloggers or communities on a similar level. Feedback, encouragements, and shared experiences often help in erasing negativity.
Aim for Growth, Not Perfection: Blogs are the work in progress. Most importantly, you should never stay in fear rather embrace the mistakes as they come, for that is the way of growth.
