Write stuff down

What is journaling? At the tactical, technical level, I’m talking about literally just writing down words however you can. Write down whatever you’re thinking. Whatever you’re feeling. Try to start writing and keep going, however stupid, silly, frivolous, annoying, or crazy it might seem. Where? Wherever you like! In a notebook. In your notes app on your phone. On your blog. Record a video of yourself talking. Start tweeting from an anonymous account. Anything at all. And go fast.
