I love what you said about the humsafar. I’ve never heard the term but it’s a great way to view things. It’s a perspective that can set someone free. Focus on your journey and the pleasure of it will never fail.

There are hours of the day I dedicate to writing, which is how I manage to write consistently. Same with exercise. For me, I have to prioritize it by clearing my schedule.

Hi Nishant, I would love for you to interview Sarah Nisbett. (Her book is called "Drawn On the Way"). You both inspire me so much in my drawing. I think it would be a great conversation.

Nishant, I love spending time here. I just posted today, and your #1 is right on. for a year, I posted on Fridays consistently. then I started slacking a bit under the guise of "self-freedom"

I stopped that when I had to post a late Sunday night out of thin air. That post sucked. BAD

vulnerability is paramount. I have learned to let a post ripen -

and the action is at the core - I stopped using the word "trying" to define anything I am doing. If you're just tying it, you are not doing it. if one is saying "i'm planning to try something soon"

that means it never will happen.

thanks - proud to know you

Ric

Loved this, Nishant! Kudos on your consistency. I've really enjoyed your work although I don't comment often enough! I stopped writing weekly for a few months to give myself time to think about this. I'm now back as of Sunday. My focus will be on one book in translation every week. I want to read one work a week and I want to share what I find. My debut on the topic is at https://bit.ly/3uHmEmS
