Good Evening My Dear Fellas!!
So, after a long Monday, I'm back; hopefully, you've taken advantage of the opportunity of Buddha Purnima and full moon magic; if not, it's not too late; you can still start affirming, remember, its better late than never!
Todays Chaos: Video viewing v/s Reading Riot..To read or to view!
Decide your sides Readers! :P
Most of times, when we are tired, we usually want to watch random videos to relieve from stress, which are AI(Artificial Intelligence) fed on our homepage screens by our interests. We binge watch something on our OTT apps or something on Facebook or Youtube, such as reels or quickies.
We often in our lethargy, feel like scrolling content whatever comes first just to divert our minds and ease out from tension.
But, what if i say, its slowly killing you!!! Yes, it is. And now you may be thinking how?
Radiations? No.
Data theft? No.
Strain to eyes? Yes, but not completely.
Well, the answer to this is very simple. Your creativity. It kills your creativity and thinking capabilities. Your mindfulness pays the cost.
Now you all must be wondering why and how creativity is affected?
Here, lets take a tour to our old school methods and get back to basics. If you can recall, we had our separate English classes in schools where our teachers used to ask each and every student to read aloud one by one. This very technique was simple but its effect was tremendous and vast. Reading aloud would boost your self confidence and tame you for public speaking. Also when you read anything aloud it penetrates your brain through sound medium and in turn would imprint the information in form of a audio pattern, which becomes easier to recall.
The teachers while introducing a new prose or poetry to students would use different tones and expressions to make each and every one of us imagine and think about the scenario. They would also push our imagination sometimes by describing the story scene. Interpretation and construction of the very scenes as described by our narrators would take us to a new world of imagination, so much so that we would just forget our physical presence and reach a land of fairy tales. That was the power of constructive imagination that would indulge us between the pages to unleash a cloud land around us, letting slip of who we are, where we are!! ❤
Digital viewing serves you with ready made videos and does not encourage imagination and construction, thus it cripples our thought process and creativity in the long time. We end up paralyzing our vocabulary and imagination to become dependent on search engines and in worst cases on people.
Emilia Clarke quoted, "My father always said, "Never trust anyone whose TV is bigger than their book shelf" -so i make sure i read!
So to conclude, pet a book or write something, it may be frustrating or hopeless in the start but eventually you will get back your naive and puerile imagination and creativity in the process. No matter how much of viewing you do, but have a small habit to at least write a small paragraph of what you think or feel. This helps to build yourself better. Even when i started my blog, i was confused, where to go, to write or left...ha ha ha ...pun intended!
Follow some writing methods like have some good attractive stationery, read good or motivational books, have a good study table etc. This will make you feel fresh and willing to sit and imagine for yourself. And may the metaphors be with you....:D.
On a lighter note, do you know what is a car's favorite genre? Its auto biography....he he he
So guys rethink the fact and act...All the best..i will leave you all alone today with your wild imaginations!!
Good Night, may the best-est dream land surround you tonight!
