1. What is your number one career “bliss-maker?” How can you spend more time inside your moments of bliss?

Your goal is to focus on that bliss.

2. While attending a writer’s retreat, a fellow writer advised, “Honor thy workplace.”    The theory is if you clean your papers and stuff away, you’re allowing space for creativity.  Yes, it sounds woo-woo, but stick with me.  Another author suggested, “Un-clutter your office as though you were doing it for someone else. “

I’m here to report this works!  However, un-cluttering is a gradual procedure.  Once you begin, you realize you need less in your life than you thought.

Writing Prompts:

1.  List your activities and jobs throughout the week.
2. Prioritize.  What can you “let go” of  allowing more time, space, and energy with your creative process/ bliss?
3. Choose one activity you can delegate or remove from your schedule.
4. How can you “do” your bliss first in your day?  A number of people I know have had full lives teaching, plumbing, cleaning houses, etc. while writing or creating their art at 4 a.m.
5. If 4 a.m. won’t allow you your full creativity, choose a time when you CAN make it your priority.
