One of my goals is to write every day, even if it’s only a few lines.
I’m also traveling right now. In addition to the benefits that writing regularly provides, writing under these circumstances is giving me the following insights:
- It is positively asinine to wait until the night before a post needs to go live to write it
- The daily habit of writing really does keep the subconscious churning away on ideas
- Being in the posture of writing regularly turns you into a keen observer of everything
- When you read less, the frequency of insight drops dramatically
- When your body needs sleep, writing something of substance is incredibly challenging
- Staring at a blank WordPress post screen is at times terrifying
- Lists are always the right answer (I think)
- It’s worth it
