Time Management Tip: Live a life worth writing about
Some of my best inspiration for writing comes when I’m furthest away from my computer. It’s in the moments when I’m out with friends, drinking coffee and laughing. Or on a drive through the mountains in the fall on the way to spend time with family and I see the way the golden sunlight breaks through the changing leaves and reminds me that even our most wonderful seasons change and transform. Sometimes I’m inspired at our daughter’s soccer games, watching how kids play hard and laugh loudly and keep trying even when things don’t go the way they planned.
Sitting at my computer is where I get a lot of work done, and where I can see what others are doing, but it rarely inspires me to be more creative or explore new ideas. Often it leads to comparison, doubt, and frustration. Your work is important, but so is your rest. We need to live lives outside of our work that inspire us to write, pray, sing, create, organize, encourage, or try something new.
Inspiration: “Inspiration usually comes during work rather than before it.” ― Madeleine L’Engle
