In this episode, I’m here to help you create your perfect writing environment - something that doesn’t have to be difficult. In fact, the simpler you can make it, the better. Often, when you procrastinate over having the right pen, notebook, or chair, you’re dangerously close to becoming Goldilocks.
But this is often procrastination in disguise. Writing a book is hard work, so this is no surprise - but like any new habit, the best time to start writing is now, not when the muse takes you or the wind is blowing in the right direction. Or when that new Moleskine notebook shows up… (I feel seen…)
During this episode, you’ll learn:
- How to create your perfect writing environment so you can avoid procrastination and get some damn words on the page.
- Where I write - and why - and how mixing up your environments might NOT be the right decision for you.
- How our brains can be easily influenced by our environments - and the pros and cons of this when it comes to writing habits.
