Thanks to the YouTube algorithm, I recently came across a video on the significance of writing mini essays (link at the bottom). I have been tempted to write, but time is such a restraint with everyday nuances. I think it’s better to start small than not start at all.
Some takeaways from the video on how to get started.
– Cover only one distinct topic or idea
– Keep the writing short, just to fit the screen without scrolling down. Probably 200-500 words; effectively a few paragraphs.
– Keep the essays organized
One mini essay a day would be beneficial. After all, it would only take 30 minutes. The author likes to post the essays online for easy access. And I concur with his view. I will be trying my best to post one essay sharing my limited expertise on various subjects, hoping to churn out one article a day. The good thing is that it could help reinforce my knowledge by sharing it out. And here I am writing it on my computer directly via WordPress. Pardon my lack of web design. Looking back, it has been a long time since I made a post (and a rather petty one indeed).
Nevertheless, I should not be too overestimating myself in my commitment…
