There is no alternative to writing more for writing better but there are
many things we can do to increase what we write. Since our writing is only as
good as what we think, I believe writing and our thinking capacity have a
strong relation. We can only think critically if we are exposed to as many
view points as possible. As Elon Musk famously said in his interview with
Salman Khan that reading is the fastest way of getting information. Reading
is one of the most efficient ways to getting exposed to many ideas form
various standpoints or understanding what something means. When we read
from many sources, we build up ideas and form new ideas. When we form
new ideas, we write them, share them and reflect on them. It is a cyclic
process one thing leading to the next and making each step better each
time.
