Why You Should Push Your Creativity by Being Stubborn

Sticking to the same thing not working may be a good choice.

When I started writing last year, I decided on a schedule of topics for specific days of the week and then expanded as time passed by. Here’s how it was in June:

  • Monday: Writing (For yourself or others)
  • Tuesday: Language Learning Related
  • Wednesday: 4-character expressions in Japanese (on my blog exclusively)
  • Thursday: Ainu Lesson (on my blog exclusively)
  • Friday: Burmese Lesson (on my blog exclusively)
  • Saturday: Self-Improvement
  • Sunday: Self-Improvement or Language-related

In July, I realized my Ainu lessons were just translated versions of the Japanese podcast lesson I was making and it wasn’t training me to become a better writer so I took the decision to stop writing about it and switched to self-improvement or language-related articles.

It was a difficult but good decision as it allowed me to have more articles based on creativity each week.

I then decided I wouldn’t make any change for the rest of the year but, lo and behold, I have been considering doing it again for the past month or so.
