my ins and outs as a writer in 2024

now this is a trend i can get on board with ✨

The 2024 ins and outs trend is brilliant!

It’s the result of a deep reflection and goal-making session. It’s like making New Year's resolutions with actionable steps and achievable goals.

Here’s my ins and outs for 2024 as a writer:

Outs:

  • Excessive screen time (>5 hours/day)

  • Doom scrolling

  • Useless virtual arguments

  • Obsession with negative comments

  • Fixation on mistakes

  • The “perfect moment” to publish

  • Beginning the sentence with “I think”

  • Passive voice in non-academic writing

Ins:

  • Slow and thoughtful writing

  • Values in each post

  • More frequent journaling

  • Daily reading

  • Being kind to my work

  • Documenting my life lessons online

  • Drafting using pen and paper

  • Discipline

What are your ins and outs for the new year? I’d love to know 🫶
