“Good enough: Getting the writing written and letting it go”

1) In this article I learned that sometimes it is just better to send something rather than not sending anything. Even if your text wouldn't be excellent it is always better to send something. If you don't say anything your voice is never recognized.

2) It was interesting to read the part in which Heidi was discussing the difficulties to start writing. I can relate to that and I felt the same way she was writing. It is not that bad to write when you get started but sometimes it may be really hard to start your writing. Never letting you do "shitty first draft" at first. Always trying to do it well from the beginning and it takes lots of effort to start.

3) I learned that sometimes it is just better to let it go. For example if you are struggling with one paragraph, you don't have to make it perfect but just try to write something and move on. Maybe after a while you have different aspect and you do have better ideas now.

This chapter kind of relates to my own research paper. I want to do it well and I think about every sentences I am writing that if they sound good and are they in a logical order. Every time when I get started with this research paper I am doing a lot and it is not that bad to write it. But sometimes it is just really hard to begin your work.
