All options are open when we grab a blank sheet of paper. I find this extremely liberating. Especially when I give myself permission to create as I go rather than tackling the blank sheet as a finished product in the making. Capturing ideas, editing, inserting additional thoughts, striking unwanted statements as a better option emerges... This allows me to see an article or slogan evolve.
All these years later, I now clearly know why I always provided the required outline after I'd written a paper. I needed to see what would develop rather than treat it as a finished project at the outset.
We all have different ways of learning, processing information and seeing the world. Embracing our most comfortable style allows our creativity to flow.
Do you find a blank sheet of paper liberating or intimidating?
