It’s never too late to join Jake’s the challenge. If you haven’t done action step one do it today, buy yourself a journal, and get started. Give yourself 30 days to use the journal, start writing you’ll find it is a positive commitment you will want to start your day off with everyday. The important thing is the commitment to writing every day.
Excerpt from Jake’s newsletter to writers who feel blocked. As writers, we often feel the urge to put off our writing for the “right” time, when we are less busy, less stressed out, have more time, more money, etc. We imagine some nearby future when we’ll have the time to pursue our passion. But as we all know too well, the “right” time never comes. We are always just a little too busy, too stressed, or too broke. And of course, the fact that we’re not writing makes those negative feelings even worse.
There’s only one guaranteed way to make the “right” time come, by carving out the tiny bit of time you do have right now, and using that to build the future you want. To be continued tomorrow.
