- The saying "Don't write with negative thoughts" misses the essence of writing.
- Writing can have various motives, such as achieving goals or escaping reality, and the important thing is to express your thoughts through writing, whether positive or negative.
- Author Lee Gi-ju started writing with a strong desire to escape from his company, and his experience shows that negative emotions can sometimes open up new paths.
I've been told not to write with negative thoughts. Don't think things like, "I'm going to fail," or "I want to escape reality."
But writing isn't that simple. Some people pick up a pen to achieve their goals, while others do so to escape reality. Only the writer knows which motivation is right. What matters is that you're writing, whether it's positive or negative.

A moment of reflection_Raimundo de Madrazo y Garreta (Spanish, 1841 - 1920)
Writing is a means to organize thoughts and express oneself. It doesn't matter what thoughts you have, what matters is that you put them out into the world through writing. Writing has the power to turn negative thoughts into positive actions. Whether it works or not, write today again. That might be the greatest gift we can get from writing.
▶ Every time I turn on my laptop and put my hands on the black keyboard to write a manuscript, I'm reminded of the day I first decided to escape from my company.
Looking back, I think I was able to feel that way at the time not because I had a firm ambition to become a writer, but because my desire to escape from the company was so strong. It's like I stepped onto a new path because of my desire to escape from something, rather than my desire to approach something.
