For the past few months I put writing on the back burner and let my business get in the way of what I love to do. Though this worked in the short term, it did nothing to curb the ideas that flow freely whenever I close my eyes. Now that business has slacked and I have more free time I am allowing myself to get back to writing. The great part is that I have also let writing into my business now.
For those that don’t know I am a bookkeeper and administrative assistant who gets to work from home for the clients I choose. (The perks of working for myself) This also means I have to find all my own clients and do all the leg work…but you give and receive and I wouldn’t trade it for the world.
With business slow I am taking the time to not only work on the two books I put to the side months earlier, but also crank out some wonderful articles on various business topics. I love writing and researching. It’s a great way to utilize my imagination, share knowledge and keep the ideas from eating me alive.
My goal for September is to build my business and expand my writing. By October I hope to have the majority of one of the books complete and hopefully by Christmas I will have an agent and a publisher for that book. (cross your fingers it can all work out that quickly).
What are your goals and intentions? Do you have a master plan? It doesn’t have to be as large as starting a new business or climbing mount Everest. In fact the small plans and goals are often easier to reach and more immediate in their results.
Whatever your plans I hope you achieve them and surprise yourself with the ease they are completed with.
