Deep writing: write 3000 words a day
When it comes to writing in depth, you find that you can write a lot. Sometimes, however, there is a block that prevents you from achieving your goals. To get the creative juices flowing again, you need to clear the path from desire to action. Use these three simple action steps to unleash the creative being that you are:
Action Step One – Write Your Goal
Write a sentence in the present tense that creates a clear image in your mind. It should be an active statement with a deadline, such as “I will write a full synopsis of my novel by Friday.” Make your goal and deadline as realistic as possible, and motivate you to action.
Action Step Two: Freewrite
If you notice that it is difficult to start the writing process, take the pencil and paper and write freely. It’s easier to write something you know. These Prime the Mind(TM) exercises can help:
- feel. What are your feelings right now, about your life, about writing? Allow yourself to express what needs to be said. Do not stop.
- Make an inventary your writing strengths and weaknesses. Take note of your mental, emotional, and physical writing space. Be compassionate, congratulate yourself.
- Go ahead and befriend the inner critic.. What do you fear? Why? Acknowledge your concerns and doubts. Turn to anyone or anything that you feel is keeping you from sitting down and writing.
Action Step Three: Write!
Beginning. Write. You have set your goal, addressed your problems, and cleared your mind. Now write.
