Read Jocelyn K. Glei's blog post, "How to Feel Progress."
Highlights:
· Our goals have to be things we make happen for ourselves—not things we wait to be given.
· Overwhelm is a powerful opponent of productivity—but if you’re clear-eyed in your priorities you should be able to fend it off.
· Write yourself a new script—one that tells you what you secretly know: That you can do this.
· Speak to yourself as you would a friend. Today is a new day. Today can be the day you write.
· Writing is a practice. The more you do it, the better you’ll become at getting words on the page.
· I want to see myself moving forward in a way that tracking words or page count is not going to give me.
· Your work is a gift from you to yourself. Even when it’s messy, even when it’s not yet nearly what you want it to become.
