#728 WRITING – S1 E14 – BAD MOOD WRITING

We can all write when feeling great! When life presents itself from its best side. It’s a hot summer evening, the wind is rushing through your hair, the wine is tasty. The sunset at the horizon, the clear ocean water. Of course we get into the zone! But honestly, life…

#707 Writing – S1 E13 – Writing for no reason

A reason is what we need. A reason is what keeps us alive. But why don’t we do things without any reason? Just doing something for the sake of doing it. Today is such a day. It’s sunny outside. The birds are singing. Nature at its best. Oh wait, no,…

#685 Writing – S1 E12 – Nonsense

#519 Writing – S1 E7 – Books these days are like …

Have you recently had a glimpse into a non fictional book about anything from succeeding in life to leadership or anything in between? I mean, I couldn’t because of my eye, but I had a lot of time to listen to a bunch of audiobooks available out there. Well, I…

#482 Writing – S1 E6 – When time is limited

Writing takes time! In fact, a lot of time! You sit there all day long, trying to make sense out of your thoughts. Sure, the moment we are really in the flow, writing might be the easiest of things in the world! But honestly, how often are we in the…

#438 Writing – S1 E5 – The Art of writing in the Night

When is the perfect time for writing? Really early on in the morning light when your brain feels still fresh and recovered from the exciting adventures of your dreams? Or late at night after a glass of wine or two? A routine might in fact be the key to a…
