2
Ready to fit writing into your life? Discover some of the best time management and productivity writers out there and kickstart your writing habit today. Think of Find Time to Write as a habit formation system. You don't need to start with an idea. You need time and space to write, and you need to show up regularly. Find Time to Write will help you do exactly that. If your life is so overcrowded you're wondering how you're ever going to find time to write, then this book is for you. If you simply want a set of powerful time management resources, this book is also for you. All the small steps writing guides are based on two principles. One, you can take any big project, goal or task and break it down into smaller and smaller steps until it becomes doable. Two, if you take small but specific actions regularly enough, they'll have a snowball effect. That means, using the time management techniques and writing prompts in Find Time to Write, you can start taking small steps towards your writing goals.
