The Art of Staring at a Blank Page: A Guide to Frustration and Despair
In a world where creativity is stifled and productivity is a myth, the art of staring at a blank page has become a lost skill.
It's a technique that requires patience, dedication, and a willingness to sacrifice one's sanity. But trust us, it's worth it.
Here's how you do it:
- Step 1: Clear your mind of any thoughts, ideas, or emotions. A blank slate is key.
- Step 2: Stare at the page with an intensity that would put a hawk to shame. No blinking, no squinting, no glancing away.
- Step 3: Wait for the creative juices to flow, or in our case, wait for the existential dread to set in.
- Step 4: Repeat steps 1-3 until you've achieved a profound sense of ennui or a crippling sense of doubt.
