Recently, I was in a group of people and we were listening to a would-be writer lamenting about how she had always loved to write. She felt like it was her passion. However, she wasn’t doing it! At all.
Does that ring true with you?
If you love creating something, what’s stopping you?
Fear? Frustration? Anxiety?
Only you can sit down and carve out the time to enjoy your passion.
Here’s the interesting part:
Another person in our party said, “Can you give it 15 minutes a day?”
Yes. 15 minutes. That’s good advice, any way you slice it.
Everybody has 15 minutes to spare and sometimes all it takes is starting.
You see, in order to achieve our goals, we have to be willing to dedicate the time it takes to get there. Start small. Be consistent.
15 minutes. . ..
Remember when you were learning how to read? It started with a few minutes a day.
I’ll bet it’s second nature now. But, did you start out by reading a novel? Of course not!
I know this concept is nothing new but it’s a reminder. If there’s something you really want to do, give yourself permission to do it 15 minutes every day.
See where it leads!
Peace,
