Are you wondering how to improve your handwriting?

Good handwriting is an asset; helps in Memory Development – Part 2

Renowned late French poet Jean Cocteau had correctly said: “Poets don’t draw. They unravel their handwriting and then tie it up again, but differently.” That’s true indeed and continuing from part 1 of the article let us see (7) more useful tips to improve our handwriting.

1. Sit in a straight posture; relaxed but fully straight with your non- writing fingers gently curled under your hand, and your hand position resting lightly.
2. Keep the table where you are writing empty as you need room for movement for your arm while writing something.
3. Concentrate on moving from the shoulder and holding your forearm and fingers steady. Work on muscles from your shoulders, chest and very important your back as not for your handwriting; you tend to doze off slowly when you are not seated straight.
4. Children who have learning disabilities, dyslexia also benefit if they practice on their handwriting.
5. Also try making up motivational sentences that use letters in different ways.
6. Do not get disheartened when people criticise you for bad handwriting. Inspire yourself that you will work hard and not give up.
7. Good Handwriting is also very essential for boosting a student’s confidence and memory and ability to recall. As Dalai Lama has correctly said: “With realization of one’s own potential and self-confidence in one’s ability, one can build a better world.”

Always strive for Good Handwriting as Bad Handwriting has poor rhythm and many inconsistencies. Keep in mind the initial steps whether you are a school kid or an office person includes to hold your pen at the top and write a word. Also let the Lines be your Guiding Factor. Then do not forget to slow down. If you are a student writing an exam; you need good writing otherwise the professor who has so many papers to correct will not really have the patience for every word written shabbily. Same for a professional, housewife or a senior citizen.  Do not be in haste all the time as it will lead to mistakes and errors. As Famous Italian actress Sophia Loren has correctly said: “Mistakes are part of the dues one pays for a full life.”
