āGrab your audienceā makes me harder to start to write an essay all the time. Even I have some reasonable ideas for body paragraphs. I could not begin the essay because I did no fill up the introduction. In my head, I had a lot of ideas, but it was hard to make a good hook. Another rule is perfect grammar and not repeating the same words. Those things make me just focus on details things rather than the context
Functional rules block some people to write freely because they are few. People easily experience conflicts from writing because the all the rules do not fit in all situations. The difference is the non-blockers focus on the picture. It means non-blockers follow and try to reach their goals. They also change and improve their plan via feedbacks. All the process is based on their initial goal whereas the blocker put the attention in details things more.
Ruth is most like me because I put the most of the time for writing a hook in an introduction. Some rules disrupt my process of writing as well. Even though I know myself, it is hard for me avoiding those rules depend on the situation. I also need a bunch of times to start an essay.
