write something every day

I pledge to write something every day from now until I can no longer write. Whether it’s making a list to the store or writing a how-to article, I’m going to be sure to write. I’ve joined eHow and started blogging so that’s a great beginning. Yep, I can do this.

I haven’t written anything in a long time, except for goals, and comments on other people’s goals. While I think that sort of writing is good and helpful, it’s not exactly what I had in mind when I set this goal for myself. I’m supposed to be writing stuff that could someday go into a book.

My mind feels empty. I don’t seem to care anymore. I used to feel so fired up about sharing my gardening ideas with people, but now I feel so hopeless. Like, why would anyone want to hear what I have to say anyhow? Who am I to write a gardening book when I don’t even have a !#$#$@ GARDEN right now???

Makes me want to cry.

(deep breath)

I need to let it go. I need to focus on what I do know, and can do. If I don’t know it or can’t do it, it’s useless to worry about.

Maybe for now I’ll let this goal slide. It’s been sliding for a long time, now, but maybe now I’ll give it PERMISSION to slide. My first goal in communicating my gardening ideas is that I need to GET A GARDEN to begin demonstrating my techniques. Even then, I know it’ll take about two or three years before the benefits really show up.

It’s just so depressing to realize I can’t do something that sounds so simple.

Didn’t do so well this week. I did write something Monday and noodled around one or two other days. Tuesday I took off of everything with inauguration fever.

I’m really not sure how I feel about this goal. Other than ambivalent. But I’ll keep tilting at it for awhile. It’s good to keep the writing on the table, so to speak.

If updating my goals tonight counts, I’ve managed to write “something” everyday this week. I think one of my biggest obstacles to maintaining this practice is the difficulty I have accepting that “something,” that some days, probably most days, I will go to the page, spend some time there, and come away with nothing presentable or even capable of being made presentable. But the practice is the thing and humility enough to submit to it, and a certain hope-springs-eternal-ness that maybe this day I’ll be surprised. On a couple of days where I managed to crowd the writing goal to the end of the day I have crawled into bed with my notebok to write a little before shutting off the light – - not a bad bedtime ritual at all.

know who I am. Writing helps me remember who I was. Writing helps me clarify who I intend to become. Writing helps me set achieveable goals. Writing is my way of helping others.

I am trying to write down enough of my ideas to make a book. Of course I write every day in my journal. I also want to publish articles online, which publicize my ideas and methods, help people, and direct people toward my website.

Every day I want to get 10 pages written (in whichever area I feel like working on that day).

I am pulling out the dusty journal once again.

i keep a diary and am still keeping it till now.
but its way impossible to write every single day due to the normal busy life
but yes, writing does help me cope with my emotions and hep to express myself.
i will write more!

it’s important to let your mind speak. you can get so bogged down with what goes on in your day to day life. i want to write down at least one thing every day, whether it be a journal entry, a single thought, or an insight into my own life.

I can safely say that I do this, whether it is writing in my journal, making notes from a book I read, writing essays, writing articles or any other number of writing tasks I do.

I love it and it’s a good relaxing hobby and recommend it to anyone
