It’s funny because I was just strolling through thought catalog and had saved some interesting articles when I came upon another good article posted by a good friend on tumblr. 

I was introduced to though catalog by Jolie and it is a really good site filled with “slice of life” articles and propelling stories. A collection of thoughts and observations I either have thought about and couldn’t articulate or have already written about. 

Anyway, this article is simply about writing and how if you wanted to be good at anything, you’d have to do it for hours every day for years and you will eventually become good at it. It becomes a habit, ingrained into your everything. I want more and more routines to be part of my life the more I read about life around me. Like writing 750 words a day could prevent Alzheimer's and push you into the inner corners of your mind. Jogging every day and it becomes as integrated as breakfast and dinner. Taking walks help you come up with ideas, organize your thoughts, and delve even deeper into your identity and soul. 

All of those things sound pretty good to me. 

And please, stop worrying about Twitter and stuff like that. Twitter is vile; I never use it. It’s like a video game that never plays back. It’s like Facebook if you were the only person on Facebook and had to read your own stupid thoughts all day long. Stop worrying about Twitter and social media and getting followers and all that crap, okay? Just write all the time.

In place of facebook, twitter, instagram, I should be spending time disconnected so that I may be in tune with myself and the world around me - not the internet.
