Join me in reclaiming our existence. 

I re-committed this year to write one page a day, every day. I was going to see how long I can keep the streak alive, inspired by Jerry Seinfeld, and as I gain momentum I thought I'd share some of what I'm learning. Here's 4 Things:

  1. I Decided What I Wanted to Do - Write. I’m trying not to worry about the outcomes, I’m just writing.

  2. I Picked a Day and Started - Yesterday I committed to 100 days of writing (others are joining me in this). Then I’m outlining what the perfect week looks like to me - hour by hour - so I can dedicate the time I need to get the 1 page done. Every day.

  3. Download this Sheet - See the picture above. Jerry Seinfeld was once asked how he created so much, and he said he NEVER broke the streak. He wrote jokes every day. No exceptions. And he uses a sheet just like this. (This has done pretty well by him.)

  4. Go. None of us need permission to make it happen. We just need to start. Pick up the pencil or the guitar and create something. Don't judge, just do. Write a poem to yourself.

A lot of people have talked about the power of INTENTION. That's all this is, I'm no mastermind. But whenever I dial in on ‘making time’ - a lot of good things happen. A lot of pieces that would not otherwise exist, start to exist.

Go.
