First off, when...Hi and thank you for commenting! <br /><br />First off, when I post something I take a long time to do it because I'm nit-picky. I try to organize what I want to say in my head before I begin. I usually edit it quite a bit before I'm happy with it. As you can see, I don't post very often. I WANT to post, but after working all day, I usually just don't have the energy. I'm hoping to get better at it like I used to be, but with the number of hours I work it doesn't look too likely, sadly. <br /><br />The last thing that really helps me is I love writing tutorials, reviews, and anything that may be able to help someone else. That makes it a lot easier to write my articles.<br /><br />I hope some of this helped you at a least a little bit.

I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your <br />head prior to writing. I have had a tough time clearing my thoughts <br />in getting my ideas out there. I do enjoy writing however it <br />just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are wasted just trying to figure <br />out how to begin. Any suggestions or hints?<br />Thank you!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3362387358250863113.post-82079064289868538962018-01-07T12:34:47.538-06:002018-01-07T12:34:47.538-06:00Thanks for publishing this informative article.
