There's a (free) yoga fundamentals class tonight at 7pm. I have it on my list of thinks to do. The question: will I actually nerve myself up to go
( Read more... )
Well, when I'm doing it like this, quite literally *how* I do it is to get up, go straight to the computer, write for 45-60 minutes, take a 15 minute break for breakfast, go back and write for another 45-60 minutes (I have a specific wordcount goal I expect myself to reach in that time period), break for a quick shower, write, break for a snack, write, take a half hour for lunch (an hour loses too much momentum; also, this is the first and only time during the writing day that I'm allowed to turn on my internet-access computer and check LJ and email and stuff), write, etc, until I've reached whatever point I think I can be allowed to stop at for the day or it becomes my Time To Leave The House time, which is around 2pm. I often get a 90 minute or so break in there, but I try to be back at the computer by 3:30 or 4, and then write until 5 or 6, depending on how much I've accomplished and how close I am to a major goal.
It's actually pretty unusual for me to have stopped 2 pages shy of 250, or 1500 words short of 60K, because I often feel like once I've reached those goals in the morning that hey, I should be done for the day!
...*eyes the other computer* I wonder if I should go write that much, in fact, just to cover my ass.
