Progress & Getting BetterWriting & Creation

The last few days have left me feeling fractured, unorganized, and unfocused, I’m feeling as if I’ve been unproductive. It would be great to find a reason to not be accountable for my inactivity like, lack of sleep, Covid19, quarantine, or any other number of items. The truth is I haven’t followed my list.

I created a “mind map” about a week ago and I haven’t referenced it consistently since its completion. I’d forgotten the importance of it or its relevance or something, not sure, but I’m going back to what’s worked on numerous occasions before. No need to reinvent the wheel.

Today, Tuesday, May 5, 2020, I am grateful that:

When I’m adrift, it doesn’t take long for a course correction. It’s funny that for years I’d move without direction or purpose. But now, with purpose, I am not only moving but when I am not moving in a direction congruent with fulfilling my purpose, it’s incredibly uncomfortable.

Before I started this book launch I mapped out a plan. There are things I’m completing or have to complete which I didn’t even know about for my first launch. It’s a steep learning curve and I’m still learning. I’ve got to get this down to a science before I can start to launch other authors.

Roni was able to get rest last night. We’ve chatted this morning and after yesterday, I’m really happy she’s doing better. This episode is taking its toll on most, I’ve been fortunate in detailing with the additional tax of this situation, but most aren’t doing as well. They’ve yet to develop and use the tools needed to overcome and adapt to occurrences as this. It’s a relief to hear that she’s doing better.

How do you know you’re staying on course?

What happens when you need a course correction? How quickly do you adapt?

Are you familiar with “mind maps?” Do you use them? Have they been beneficial?
