Even at work I get sucked into answering email and all of a sudden it's 9 O'clock. <br /><br />I think I will try a simple 30 minutes of getting my day in order before logging on and see how that works. <br /><br />Thank you for sharing. <br /><br />DaveDave Kean @davekeanhttp://www.davekean.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22902306.post-19874476605582460822012-01-03T15:50:57.800-05:002012-01-03T15:50:57.800-05:00Hi Tracy,

I'll have to check out The Sound of Paper--sounds like Julia Cameron has some great ideas. Thanks for the tip! <br /><br />Wishing you much joy and success in the New Year as well!<br /><br />SusanSusan M.

It's easy to click on one email link or tweet and lose a couple of hours if you're not careful. <br /><br />Recently a family member suggested <i>The Sound of Paper</i> by Julia Cameron. One of the first exercises she explains is writing three "morning pages" long-hand every day. Even before I check email on my phone - which is usually in hand 30 seconds after waking - I now make coffee and write out those three pages to start my day. Everything else can wait. So far it's working, and I have a lot more creativity in the afternoon too. Maybe it's a coincidence, but I'm going with the flow.<br /><br />Wishing you a joyous 2012 with much success in whatever resolutions you do (or do not) set for yourself. :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
