Shevonne Polastre is happy it's the holidays
They say that it takes 21 days to form a habit. Therefore, one of my top-five goals for the month of August is to write 1,000 words a day. This number includes daily blogs, journal entries, and fictional book. It doesn’t matter what is going on that day, I write. Even if I feel like writer’s block is not allowing me to get any words on the paper (yes, I am old school), I go exercise or find a writing prompt.
Before, I wrote, but it was sporadic. If something happened that took my interest, I didn’t write anything that day. Now that I am writing this book, part of different blogging teams, and are getting more technical/proposal writing work, I have to be very structured and consistent on my writing approach.
It’s already been 18 days, and now I feel weird if I don’t write. I only have three more days for it to be a daily habit, but I already feel like I have gotten there.
