Do you feel self-conscious when you write? You�re not alone. Many beginning and inexperienced writers fall prey to this trap, ending up preoccupied with �thinking about� the job at hand, rather than actually working on it.
It is normal that you had this kind of feeling and maybe you keep on experiencing it especially when you are bound to write something. Everyone feels the same way too. The only difference is that, most of them were able to conquer their self-consciousness in writing.
That can be a very tough job in your part. There are times that you don�t know the reasons why you have it and there are instances that you can hardly notice this kind of feeling. But sooner or later, you�ll find out that there is something wrong. Having this kind of feeling seems like you don�t know how to make your writing work and worst, you end up thinking for your own writing style over and over without any assurance that you can make it by yourself.
Self-conscious writing can be avoided with the help of some writing guides and techniques. The only thing that you need to know is how to deal with it and how are you going to apply these answers into your writing. Although most people were able to manage their self-conscious writing, then I�m pretty much sure that you too can handle it with yourself.
When you suffer from this malady, you will likely end up having trouble getting started. If you can�t start, then you will most likely consume your time �til you run out of time to write. If that happens, you can�t be able to finish your writing and worst, a lot of opportunities will only pass you by if that happens.
It�s the classic paralysis of analysis situation, where the excessive amount of thought ends up stifling any effort towards actually getting any work done. As much as possible, you need to overcome it. The question is how are you going to do it?
Here are a few things you can do:
Talk the subject over with a friend or a colleague. Discussing it with someone usually helps to clear out the cobwebs, maybe even gain a few new ideas in the process.
Lower your standards. If you�re being held back by an excessive desire to produce a �great� piece, remind yourself that writing doesn�t have to be excellent to be effective. Sometimes, �good enough� is all that you need.
Learn to draft. Just begin the piece knowing that it�s a draft � one that you can improve upon later. It will help lessen the pressure. It�s not just something you say to make yourself feel better too. With plenty of writing tools available, the first version of anything you write can easily be improved upon into something considerably better.
Break up the writing task into smaller chunks. Sometimes, it�s the sheer amount of work that may leave you self-conscious. In these situations, dividing the job at hand into smaller, more manageable pieces might be able to help.
