Opposite of what I had in mind

Did a re-read of chapter 1, and a couple places where I could dive deeper. Wrote some more content and Bam! 500 more words! Still just half of the idea I initially had. I am ditching the other half - not going into comparisons with specific mythological figures. I conclude this write-up as Chapter 1.

I started writing Chapter 2 with what I had written as point 2 of my ideas. But as I wrote, I scratched it out so many times. What I ended up writing is the exact opposite of what I initially wanted to write. I don’t have an opinion of which one is “correct” or which one is more realistic. I ended up just writing more, and had my words flowing when I was writing on a concept I knew more about. I think that’s a lesson to take. I don’t need to write only things I agree with.
