Writing for me is a slow, drawn out process that involves lots of coffee and too many distractions. My room is where I write and it's not like it's distracting or anything, because it isn't. Most of my distractions come from the evil social networking site, Facebook, and music. Although music is a must for my writing, it's also a major distraction. One thing leads to another and suddenly I'm on Youtube looking at videos of kittens playing peek-a-boo.
Any tips for staying focused? Leave them below in the comment section. As for my tips - hey they've helped me finished half a novel, they can't be that bad.
- Set a work timer for about 20 - 30 minutes depending on how much you want to get done.
- When that timer is up, give yourself a 5-10 minute break.
- Try to keep your distractions minimal. Perhaps allow music but no texting or Facebook time.
- Keep your work space organized. This helps you to not want to clean it as a form of procrastination.
- Stay motivated! Don't let anything bring you down that could effect your work quality.
- Don't let your brain get worn out - stay awake with coffee, tea, or fruit.
- Plan! Plan out what you want to write or work on so that it's not improvised and half-hearted.
