Hi there, dear readers, fans and friends, I’m writing every day this month which is why you’ve been hearing from me everyday since the beginning of the year.
Why? Why? Oh Why?
The main reason is to stay accountable to myself, to see if I can do it. If I can stick to 31 days of blogging with no excuses then I can get through the glitch of not writing enough, not feeling good enough, etc etc.
I love writing. There’s no excuse not to do it.
We all go through that phase at one point or another. The most important thing is to realise it’s just a phase. It’s our mind playing tricks on us.
You can do it. You can do anything you set your mind to.
Our choices determine our levels of success. We are not what we think, we are what we do.
What are you doing everyday to get closer to your goals whether they’d be writing related, weight loss related, business related, relationship, family, travel, or whatever?
Where are you right now? Where do you want to be in 12 months?
Two of my main goals for 2020 are:
- become a better writer
- create better habits
These are wide goals. They could mean different things to different people. I’m testing the water by writing every day.
It’s not easy.
In fact, today is hard. I came home after 7pm, poured a glass of wine and decided to cook so that there’s lunch for work and dinner tomorrow. I find the ritual relaxing. It’s a way to spend time with the family – we chat, we laugh, we learn about each others’ day.
It’s also a form of procrastination.
As a writer, and creative, gosh that still sounds weird – I’ve never considered myself a creative. But I am, I like creating something out of nothing. That’s what writing is. The words fill a blank page creating something out of nothing.
Today, I’m creating. Tomorrow, I’ll be creating.
The book I’ve been trying to write for the past two years is forming itself in my mind. It’s slowly transitioning to the page.
I’m excited. Cheers to 2020.
