Here again, the main focus stays on using the paradox therapy and this is some- thing that is highly recom- mended for writers who are seeking some tips and tools for writing.
Vision Boards Vision boards are a great tool to in- spire you. If your writing goal is to be a best-selling author, find the ‘word’ best-selling author and cut it out or make it in Photoshop (or some other program). Find a pic- ture of a blank book cover and write the title of your book on it with your name on it.
Did you know Dr. Wayne Dyer al- ways has his publisher, HayHouse, make him a preliminary book cov- er? He puts the book cover on an- other book and looks at it every time he writes. Try this technique. FYI: Dr. Dyer has published many books, DVDs, CDs, etc. some of which have been translat- ed into different languages.
Let Go If you squeeze your goals to death, you’ll kill them. Relax, breathe, and let go of your goals. Intuitive spir- itual coach Colette Baron-Reid often says, “That which is yours can’t be taken away from you.” Remember, make sure you want to reach the goals you’ve set for yourself.
Volunteer To get your mind off your goals and give back to your community at the same time, volunteer at your favorite charitable organization. I volunteered for The Arizona Humane Society and loved it. I started as a dog walker but started helping with events and be- came a camp counselor in the Humane Education department. It was a lot of fun!
Affirmations You may have heard of affirmations, which are positive statements that you say to your- self. In order for affirmations to work, you must believe in them. You must feel them; oth- erwise, you’ll be repeating a bunch of words over and over that don’t mean anything. Check out this post on affirmations for writers which can help you get started using affirma- tions to reach your writing goals. Remember ‘to feel’ the statements as you say them.
Meditation Yes, you can meditate. All it takes is 10-15 minutes per day. Find a quiet space in your home and zone out. Let all of your thoughts go and focus on your breathing.
Prayer You may not be into prayer and that’s fine. But for writers who are, I’d like to give you a guide on ‘how to’ pray. When I say prayer, I’m not talking about the, “Dear God (Universal Source, Universal In- telligence, etc.), I would like to be a pub- lished, best-selling author. If this happens, I promise I’ll be nicer to my ex-husband.” This won’t work. And you may want to be nicer to your ex-husband to build up ‘good’ karma.
Try a prayer like this… Dear (fill in the blank), Help me to release my writing goals and al- low everything to unfold in the perfect time. I place my book, screenplay, freelance writ- ing business, ghost writing business, etc. on the altar and release it to you. With your help, I know I’ll reach my writing goals. This is just an example. You can say any prayer you want as long as it’s NOT the good ol’ “give me this, and I’ll give you that” type of bargaining prayer.
Journaling Go to the store and purchase a couple of journals, even notebooks will do. You can journal in the morning, night, or both. Write about your day and get eve- rything out of your system. Vent about the client that always changes a dead- line. Vent about how your kids or family members that are driving your nuts. Clear your emotions. By the way… Clarity can do wonders for your writing.
Now that you got everything out of your system, write down your writing goals for the next three months, six months, or one year. Think about what you’d like to ac- complish. What do you see yourself writing? Where do you want to be? Get all of your goals out of your head and onto the pages of your journal. Finally, put your journal away until the next day when you’ll read what you wrote. You may discover that the writing goals you wrote ARE NOT the ones you want to reach after all. This is okay. Begin again by thinking about your writing and what you’d like to bring to peo- ple. What does your writing look like? What does it feel like? Be honest.
What to do Right Now Clear your mind of negative thoughts by CHOOSING thoughts and beliefs about your writing and or being a published author or well-paid freelance, ghost or creative writer that feel good. Don’t try to control your thoughts because you’ll become frustrated. Grab a pen and paper or open a blank Word document and start writing and or typing your writing goals. Review your list and revise it until you are 100% certain you want to reach every goal on it.
You can reach your writing goals without much effort. There’s no need to struggle, push, or pull. You don’t even have to work hard. All it takes is focus, discipline, determination, and perseverance to reach your writing goals. Remember, you may not reach your writing goals tomorrow, but you’ll reach them by taking inspired action, believing you can reach your goals, and visualizing the ‘end’ result.
What are you waiting for? Start thinking about your writing goals or visit the ones you have. Don’t procrastinate. Grab your laptop, iPad, net- book, or pen and paper and com- pile a list of writing goals. Start right now!
