How to better accumulate writing materials?

Many friends often ask me, how can I write without writing an article and without a foundation? What should I do if I write and write that there is no topic to write about? How to collect materials and cultivate inspiration?

01 Diary.

Actually, I ran into these problems when I first started writing. When I first started writing, I didn't know what to write or how to find material, so I started with a diary. Record the events in your life every day, record the joys, sorrows and sorrows at work, and record your own growth.

It was this experience that allowed me to turn the events of my life into my own material at any time when I wrote articles later, and for me, life is the material, the story. So, if you're ready to start writing but don't know what to write, you might as well start with life and record the bits and pieces of life, which is also an asset.

02 Materials.

As for the topic, when you can make good use of the material library of life, you don't have to worry about the material. The stories that happen to us every day, the stories of the people around us are all good materials**, and even the books we have read, the movies we have watched, and the roads we have traveled can be used to write. Another method I usually use is to find topics on the hot search list on Weibo, such as the previously popular Ode to Joy, and the news of Shuangsong's marriage that has exploded in the circle of friends in the past few days is a good material.

If you have nothing to do, you can definitely find a topic on the Weibo hot search list or hot search list.

03 Inspiration.

For me, inspiration doesn't come from the beginning, it's something that comes out of my head after reading a lot of work, writing a lot of articles, and then popping out of my head under certain circumstances.

I have a habit that is not particularly good - thinking about things on the road, looking around at the scenery and people. But this not-so-good habit is one of the most important sources of inspiration for me.

Inspiration is always fleeting, and the best way to catch it is to write it down with a pen and paper or mobile phone as soon as it strikes. Usually, you can write down the key words or outline, and then you can write it down according to the text you recorded.

Maybe not everyone is inspired in a particular environment like me, but how can I cultivate inspiration if I don't?

As I said earlier, inspiration is not held back, but is associated with the works I have read and the articles I have written. When you have a certain amount of accumulation, inspiration will naturally burst out, all you need to do is to accumulate and then write it down when the inspiration comes.

04 Library.

Part of it was the topic I was looking for online, and part of it was the keywords that I was inspired to write down. After writing an article, mark it and make a "table of contents" in Youdaoyun notes. Here's how I do it for your reference.

There are materials everywhere in life.

It is not that there is a lack of beauty in the world, but that there is a lack of eyes to find beauty, so in the same way, in fact, there are materials everywhere in life, that is, how do we discover it, make up for it and use it well.

1. Accumulate materials and establish a material library.

Sometimes we feel a special desire to write, a special urge to say something, but in fact, we can't write it, we can't say it. It's like choking on a mouthful of food in my throat, I can't swallow it and can't vomit it, which really makes people feel powerless.

So what to do, accumulate more! See more! Write more! There is a good way to recommend it to everyone, the collection function in WeChat, classify the good articles you usually see, and turn them into a material library that you can use. (Figure: Classification Case).

2. Make good use of the bits and pieces around you and turn them into use.

Give me an example of yourself in a group. One point is clear.

The content is as follows: 1. A deck of playing cards to get the children's math family education from 1 to 7 years old.

2. If you teach your child to play poker like this, he will definitely do well in mathematics in the future.

3. Children can always take a hundred math exams, all thanks to this deck of "playing cards"!

4. Teach a 6-month-old baby to play poker like this, and when he is 6 years old, he takes a hundred math tests every time.

A good memory is better than a bad pen. Read books, newspapers, etc., don't forget to remember and write; Check it out and take a look at it when you use it. When you go, bring paper and pen with you, have good ideas and good sentences, and write them down in time (you often can't remember them later).

Nowadays, it is popular to use mobile phones, and it is very convenient to take pictures of good scenery, good pictures, good articles, good poems (good lyrics), good couplets, etc.

When you can read the accumulated writing materials, collect the materials in time, do a good job of excerpting golden sentences, and insist on writing reading notes.

1.When reading in fragments, collect materials in time: Collection is the easiest way to accumulate materials, effortlessly, you can get it in one second, you can collect it immediately when you see a good article, and when you want to use materials to write an article, you can find out if there is any corresponding material available.

2.Do a good job of excerpting golden sentences: Usually when reading articles, reading, chatting, and listening to lectures, we will often be hit by one of the sentences and a view.

3.Insist on writing reading notes: When reading articles, reading, and chatting, a lot of writing inspiration, interesting ideas, and different thinking angles will flash in your mind, which should be recorded and accumulated in time.
