As a writer, there is no such thing as forcing yourself to write. A writer will always have ideas to write and facts to present. The more the events and ideas are, the more to write about.
If you have to force yourself, do not write.
Few good works if any produced from forcing yourself to write.
Also other people can see work which has been forced. Work that has been forced usually leaves the READER AND WRITER feeling disinterested, lost and an opportunity for connection lost.
Why force yourself for this result, it would have been a waste of time of effort. Don't be impressioned upon by images or stories of writers tearing their hair out or under so much pressure they cannot eat or function because they have a deadline to meet or story to break.
Look at the other side of this, there are writers who ignore deadlines and then put themselves under pressure to meet deadlines There are disorganized writers who fail to function in everyday life beause they take to extreme the 'buzz' of going all out to get a story or get tha article written - it does not have to be like this.
So the decision is down to the writer, if they choose that way, so be it their journey, but this is an option and not the only way to write. There are other writers who look like they are not even working, you may have seem them but not noticed, they could be in a cafe, a restaurant, a library, a hotel etc writing away quite peacefully and reaching their daily goals with cpmplete assurance that they have done a good job.
By not focing myself; I would use some stratigies, have some habits and orgnize my day. Eventually; I wont need to force myself, it will be a simple daily habit.
I will choose my best time to write, if I can't (I have to write during work time), I will listen to loud music, if I can't I will try to be alone, if I can't; I will prepare some writings earlier when I can do all the previous things.
Still, I might have eveyday a new thing to write and I wont know before; I will trian myself to change my writing habits. Make my best time of writing during the work time, make a crawd atmospher is my best. It would take time, maybe difficult; but step by step, without giving up, I will suceed.
you have to force yourself to level your competencies, otherwise your weakness always remain weakness in this computer age where you always depend on computer
Nothing and no one forces me to write. I write everyday because I have made it a habit - it's my passion. My day is never complete if I don't scribble anything on my journal.
"Get paid to write on a daily basis." If you have a contract to churn out a pece of writing daily.you will." Short of that, there is no compulsion to write daily:)-.
See it as a necessity or visualise it to be something that you really love to do and then you will enjoy doing it everyday
Or just force yourself to do it for21 days wihtout a break and you will find it has become a habit from the22nd day onwards
