What to Do When You Don’t Know What to Write
TraveltoFi

Every writer—no matter how experienced—hits a wall.

You sit down, stare at the page, and nothing comes. But here’s the truth: writers don’t find ideas, they uncover them.

So instead of waiting for inspiration, start digging.

1. Write about what’s on your mind. Even if it feels messy, ideas will emerge.

2. Ask yourself better questions. What have I learned recently? What surprised me? What challenged me?

3. Look at past conversations. Your best ideas often come from things you’ve already discussed.

4. Read something interesting. Great writing starts with great inputs.

5. Lower the bar. You don’t need a masterpiece—just a starting point.

The key isn’t waiting for the perfect idea. It’s writing your way into one.

Because consistency beats perfection. And the only way to write something worth saying is to think and write what's in your heart/mind.

Write, publish everywhere, see what works, and become a better writer - all in one place.
