Writing Life Tips
Writing is as much an act of consciousness as it an act of imagination or will. It is the mental mind-set, the consciousness you possess that produces the writing. What is your mental attitude? Do you really have a writing mind? One of my favorite New-Age writers is Wayne Dyer. Inspired by his new book, Excuses No More, I have some affirmations to offer those of you still working to create a writer’s mind. Say the affirmations that touch you most deeply several times during your periods of meditation, contemplation or prayer. Write them down as a reminder, post them on your wall or bulletin board. Integrate them into your life. Often we literally battle the emotions and feelings that sabotage the writers mind. That struggle is recurrent and quite normal. However, you have the capacity to train your mind to automatically move beyond the “it’s impossible” thoughts that plague you. To create a writing mind “flip” your negative thoughts of what is impossible into affirmations of what is possible.
- I don’t have time to write becomes
- There is sufficient time in my life to write. I use that time wisely.
