I'm a mom for crying out loud! I'm supposed to multi-task...pop in the laundry while I check my facebook, blog in between my novel writing as I use my free hand to work a puzzle with my son and help with my daughters first grade math...which wait...I SUCK at Math. What is a girl to do to get a story written? Why so many road blocks? I'm so over it, put a cork in me, turn the oven off, whatever, I'm done. I must find some order in my life.
Making a darn schedule, prioritizing and then sticking to it, that is the key for making this all work—for me at least. I know I must do it but the rebellious child in me loathes restriction, being told this is the way it has to be. I want freedom, fun and all that jazz.
More than that, though, I want to finish my novel, I want to connect with likeminded individuals through marketing, I want to play with my kids and wear clean cloths so by golly the prioritizing has to begin…tomorrow, once I get over my procrastination thing.
I'm on my way to being organized. Or so I hope.
What do you do to keep all your eggs in a basket? Is there a secret trick you want to share because I would love to know. Like seriously.
umm no.
ReplyDeletePlease let me know when you figure it out. I want to pull my hair out some days. So much to do and so little time. I do have to say I get most of my writing in at night when the girls go to bed. That is MY time!
Good luck with the organization and prioritizing and finding of order :) You'll work it out, I'm sure of it.

I'm finding early mornings, right after I take my oldest to school is best for me. The bad part is I am so not a morning person. "Suck it up" needs to be my new mantra:)
