My Writing Journey (starter)

For several years, I discover that writing is the activity I like the most. However, I’ve struggling with consistency to finish whatever writings I have started due to perfectionism. To be honest, I used to use writings as a way to clear my mind of buzzing thoughts. However, I now frequently discuss any burn-outs with my best friend, and the meddles are simply gone. Or it was simply an excuse to validate my inconsistency?

Due to the Covid-19, last year in 2020 was a terrible recession in my life. I need to leave my previous job in the private sector. I enjoyed my job and yearned to delve deeper into the industry, but adulthood responsibilities limited my options. I needed to change the job.

It is June 2021, and I have been working in the government sector for six months This new position is more in line with my background studies in Urban and Regional Planning. For the past 18 months, I journeyed in the completely distinct job fields and its ups and downs. However, within six months has already given me enough time to anchor and reflect. I want to restart my writing hobby to whatever topic comes to mind.
