Hey!
It's November 1st and there is no better time to get going than to start fresh at the beginning of a new month. Of course I believe that no single day of the week or month is any more important than any other day. Friday is the same as Monday, etc. Most people can't wait to get to Friday, because the job they are working makes them wish time away. In that regard we have to choose each day with the same mindset. The mindset that we will make progress. If we don't make progress on a daily basis then it's a wasted day...a day that we cannot ever get back.
I've attached two files in the file area. The first file is what I call a Biography or Bio sheet. It's for you to look at and go through. This will ask you many questions about yourself. It will help yo understand some of your tendencies towards your life, your progress, everything about you. You can share your thoughts if you like...or choose not to. We all have reasons why we do certain things, but the bottom line is that we have to change if we are not making progress on a daily basis. Use this sheet for your script characters as well. If you don't know your script characters then your writing will suffer.
The other file is a simple daily log. Use this for at least three days to get a better understanding of how you spend your time. You may not be aware of how you use every minute of your day. Every time you check your email write it down. Every time you look in the refrigerator for something to eat...write it down. Every time you turn on the TV write it down. Fill this in every 15 minutes. If you wait several hours to fill it in you wil forget what you did. You will only remember the good parts of your day...not the time wasting parts of your day. That is what we are after...the time wasters.
In a few days I will have more info on habits and how we are going to break the old bad habits and set new ones. Are you ready?
There is no time like now!
Best wishes,
Curtis
