Be fully prepared before you start writing. Once you start writing, you should stick to it in one breath and take out the first draft in the shortest time. This is the secret of many writers. Some people like to chew words repeatedly when writing articles, think about words while writing, and stop to look up words that can't be remembered in the dictionary for a long time. In this way, it is easy to interrupt the train of thought. In fact, the first draft might as well be a little thicker, with some flaws in materials or words, as long as it has nothing to do with the overall situation. Don't change it for the time being. It's not too late to deal with it after all the first drafts are written. This is what Lu Xun did. In his letter to assists, he said:

The previous composition method of "going back ten steps and nine times" is very wrong, that is, you constantly don't believe in yourself-the result is definitely impossible. After setting the pattern in the future, continue to write, no matter what rhetoric, don't look back. Wait until you finish writing, put it aside for a few days, then look back, delete a few words and change a few words. On the way to creation, while refining words, I really want to interrupt my interest. When I translate, if I can't think of the right words, I will leave them in the blank and continue to translate. I will consider them in the future.

Otherwise, you can stop most of the day because of one sentence. This is Lu Xun's experience, and it is also very enlightening for us to write our graduation thesis.

Third, do what should be done and stop at what should be done.

Su Wan, a great writer in the Northern Song Dynasty, said when talking about his prose creation: "My prose is like a torrent, which comes out indiscriminately. Caring about the land, gurgling, although there is no difficulty in a day's work; And its twists and turns with rocks, shapes are everywhere and unknown. What is known often depends on what it does and often stops at what it can't. That's all. " (Wen Shuo) Su Wan was one of the eight great masters in Tang and Song Dynasties. His composition is like running water, elusive and beyond the reach of others. But his conclusion that "do what you should do, stop at what you can't stop" is universally applicable.

"Do what you should do" requires the author to be clear about what he should say when writing, regardless of pen and ink. For example, the background of an article, the ins and outs of a thing, the nature and characteristics of a thing, etc. If you are unfamiliar to the reader, you should make it clear and explain it clearly in the article, but you can't simplify it at will, which will damage the meaning of the article and lead to the defect of inaccurate carelessness.

"Stop at what you can't stop", that is to say, don't write one more word, but "cherish ink as gold". When you are in love, you are free and unrestrained, and you are unwilling to give up what you love. It is bound to be flourishing, lengthy and procrastinating, and even the problem of "writing a thousand words and pulling Wan Li" will appear.
