Gratitude breaks the spell of Writers Block |
Kamál (Perfection), 19 Jamál (Beauty) 174 Badi - Monday, May 15, 2017 CE Motivational Monday "Whoso hath searched the depths of the oceans that lie hid within these exalted words, and fathomed their import, can be said to have discovered a glimmer of the unspeakable glory with which this mighty, this sublime, and most holy Revelation hath been endowed."1 Bahá’u’lláh It's Monday again! It's time to find my writing motivation and post my writing goals for May 15-19 on "Weekly Goals" . I've vacillated between the number of goals I've posted for the past few months. Sometimes I post four goals, but other times I post six, seven, or nine goals. Too few goals don't push me to achieve my full potential while too many goals frustrate me when I can't achieve them all. Starting today, I will post five goals each week. If I can accomplish those on a consistent basis then I will add two goals. "Comma Sense Classroom Forum" finish work. Review at least four items each day. Post to at least on contest. Post one entry to "Melting Snow" and to my offsite blog each. Do housekeeping around my computer desk each day. This morning I accomplished two things, which weren't on my goals list, but I needed to do. First, I decided on the subject for my June edition of the fantasy newsletter. I will focus on Punk Fiction for June. The deadline for that newsletter is Monday, June 12. Second, I edited my Power Reviewers template for the upcoming Power Raid on May 17. Because of other commitments, I don't know if I'll be able to participate in that raid, but the template is ready in case I'm able to participate. In order to build readership to my offsite blog I have to do several things. First, I have to answer the question "What is my worldview?". I started that in today's Motivational Monday entry, but I still have a couple of exercises to complete before I completely answer that question. I have to (1) fill in the blanks " Every () can/should ().", and (2) e-mail five friends asking them to describe me. After I finished today's entry, I realized I have to write a disclaimer for that blog because I accept ads that are posted with each new entry. I also have to set up a website with a link to my Poet 999 and writing.com blog. Footnotes |
