I was going to wait until I had hit a certain number of words that I’d written blogging but I’m going to do it now.
I am just shy of 230,000 words and here are a few things I’ve learned.
You are more capable than you realise.
Patience truly is a virtue.
Most metrics are actually meaningless.
Do things for the sake of simply doing them.
Writers think they have nothing to write about. It’s not true. There are thoughts perpetually going through your head, it’s worth making sense and order of them.
The amount of time it takes to get something done is far less important than immersing yourself in just doing it.
People quote stats that, let’s face it, are impossible to prove to manipulate you and make you believe that life is different or more complicated than it really is.
Do the things you enjoy, be focused in them, and good things will happen.
I am not of the school to focus on your weaknesses. There are things you are drawn to and investing your time and energy in them is why you are on this planet.
Start living life more peacefully and more joyfully.
