Comments on: Diverging goals http://wordlily.com/2008/06/03/diverging-goals/ For the love of language (and some fiber arts, too) Wed, 15 Feb 2012 05:18:33 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Dawn Goldberg http://wordlily.com/2008/06/03/diverging-goals/#comment-1395 Wed, 04 Jun 2008 19:02:48 +0000 http://wordlily.wordpress.com/?p=168#comment-1395 You know, I used to hate the fact that I loved to do so many things: cross-stitch, quilt, play the piano, play computer games, read, write…

Then, I did an assessment with a coach, and she shared with me that I flit back and forth among all three decisional styles (people usually favor 1 or maybe 2; I can do all 3). What that means, she explained, is that I get bored easily.

So now I look at it as a way to keep interested. As far as writing, I have found that I MUST schedule it. I don’t just happen into it.

This is what I wrote back in December when I was trying to figure out how writing fit into my life: http://www.writewellme.com/2007/12/new-work-sche-1.html (not trying to be all egotistical – just thought you might find something in there that was helpful).

Good luck – let us know how it goes!

And yes, you should turn off your phone. It’s extremely liberating. I’m praying for amazing stories to start swirling around in your head and bothering you to the point that you must get them OUT and onto a piece of paper………and then voila’, the birth of your novel.
