Do you want to write every day but don’t feel you have the time?

You’re not alone.

It’s not that we don’t have time. I took a survey of my actions last night. I spent from 7 to 10 PM watching TV with my family. Now don’t get me wrong. You should spend time with your family. But what if I took one of those hours and wrote an article?

Chances are you have pockets of time that you could use to write. We all do. 15 minutes after lunch. A half hour before breakfast. An hour before you go to bed.

Pick one and use it to write.

Soon you’ll free up more time than you ever imagined you could.

Now let’s look at how to make the most of the time you have.

Write Something You Care About.

When your heart is in your work, your words will sparkle.

Don’t pick a topic because it’s trendy. Don’t repeat what others are saying because it’s the easy thing to do. You wouldn’t copy and paste someone else’s work and call it your own, would you?

Pick something people care about that moves you.
