Keeping your mind fresh.

Like I said earlier, writing at long stretches can be quite taxing on the mind and it is equally important to take care of oneself as it is to take care of one's written work.
I have to write thousands of words every day, almost seven days a week without a break. I have found a remedy though that helps me to be more productive and enjoy what I dfo more. I take regular short breaks dusring the day, either to take a walk, do some exercise, sit and chat with family or do another task that needs doing of a manual nature. This way I can ensure that my writing is always fresh and I can perform and do the work in hand that is needed for the day. In the past I used to work long non stop stretches that were not only damaging to my eyes, but also lowered my work performance and morale. This led me to be very chaotic and unorganized in my work, thus making me lose focus and getting only half of the work done.

Writing for fun or for profit.

If you wish to embark on a writing career then you HAVE to love writing. It's quite a brain drain and hard work, all depending on hour many hours you spend a day at it and what kind of resources you are using. If you have to come up with a lot of your own ideas, then it can really be taxing on the that Grey Matter so you have to be prepared and give your brain the super food it deserves. In the next few days we will take a look at brain fule which will help accelerate your brain cells working at a good level to help you to produce better quality work, faster so that when you do decide to become a writing machine you will be well and truly prepared to press that Go button.

To be disciplined.

Although writing requires a free flow approach, being disciplined is the corner stone for success. More often than not we can find ourselves in a bit of a quandary and get confused. I for one found that I had a lot of ideas but getting down to implement them was a bit of a tough one. What I personally have found very useful is jotting things down as they come to my head and making a 'to do' list in the mornings before I commence my daily work. Working from home can make us a little unorganized so being tough on ourselves a little bit does help.
For example this morning I have made a list starting with going through each blog one by one. Then on my list is checking emails etc. So when I go through jobs one by one,if I finish in time and there is a little time left over I will utilize that for any promting I may need to do, or learning something new like the forex article I was sent last night in my email.
So getting down to the crunch means being disciplined. Once you can acheive that, half the job is done.

The Writer Within.

There is no such thing as 'I cannot write'.
I believe that there is a writer within all of us and it is tapping deep within ourselves that we can find this well of activity grow and flourish. There is a way to cultivate this raw talent from scratch, of course you will have to LIKE writing to bring it out. Some do possess a natural talent flow, others have to work harder at expressing themselves, but as long as you have language and cognition, you can become a prolific writer covering just about anything and everything out there and within that there is to write about.
So we will explore how to get the writer out from within and also how to make some extra bucks through it on the way.
