So, the writing of the morning pages longhand in a journal felt a little stifled and useless in the long run, as I may not ever get back and review what I had written and garner any truths or insights.
I may never do that on here either, but I think I will try to write my morning pages on the blog, and let that be a lesson to myself.
Many times I don't know what I should be saying or writing, and though there is no wrong way to write morning pages, there certainly is something to writing effectively and for the view of others.
The key principle is to make sense.
And sometimes my writing is so disjointed that it does not make any sense at all.
So, here I am, practicing making the sense.
Now, what I am most interested in today is being an effective and productive human being.
I have been struggling with waking up on time and with being effective and productive.
Today I was able to wake up successfully, and took a shower and ate breakfast all before 8:30 on a Saturday morning. Pretty good. It certainly didn't hurt that my little first grader woke me up and got me going. :)
Let me give my own endorsement of Julia Cameron's Morning Pages idea:
The Complete Artist's Way has been on my shelf for years. I have read some of it.
Morning Pages can be very beneficial.
750words.com has created a digital version.
I have used both longhand journaling and 750words.com.
This blog is now my morning pages, at least for today, and hopefully for the future as well.
