Once we are refocused on our goals and have regained a clear vision, there’s one more step to take to get back on track.

It’s time to double-check our “creativity routines” and our time management. Then we can attain those writing goals.

Need some ideas that work?

Help is Right Here!

First, download this free ebook on “Time Management for Creative People.” I have been reading one short chapter each morning before I start work. It has definitely helped my productivity. Chapter Three alone has worked wonders.

This short article on “Routines, Systems, Spontaneity” talks about “the creative process,” which is really several interlocking processes. The magic happens at the point where they intersect. Here’s how to coordinate these three critical processes.

Maybe you totally embrace all these ideas, but your calendar is just too full! If that’s your issue, check out “Is It Time for Calendar Triage?” Here are some short, practical tips for cleaning out an over-stuffed calendar.

Focus + Time Management = Productivity

Don’t try to implement every tip you read about, at least not right away. Choose one to try for a week or two, until it’s a new habit. Then choose another one, and so on.

Do YOU have a writing habit you want to develop? What needs to change in your ability to manage your time? Be brave and share an example!
