How I Increased My Productivity

It’s the simplest task imaginable!

When you google ways for increasing productivity on any search engine, you’ve already failed! Your mind has gone awry and you’ve failed so supremely that you might as well never forgive yourself.

So now forgive yourself, we’re all losers. We all start on the ground in the gutter staring at the scenes bawdy stars dont-ya-know!

A good general rule is you should have the ideas already before you sit down. When popping to the shops, when milling about at your trivial day job/s, your mind should be restless with the beauty of bountiful ideas.
What’s that? your kids are finally playing those video games or tic-toc video you pretend not to notice. This is your time, your peace time, your revelation time. If you are not swimming with the painterly ideas of the french impressionist something is amiss, is it not?

SO???

You cannot wait around for inspiration, it might be years, it might never occur. I am interested in the difference between sitting down and gruelling through the toil and simply writing when this thing called lightening hits.

I am of the controversial opinion you can easily enough create, curate your own inspiration.

It’s all in the setup. The setup can be glorious!

You wanna write, read the classics. I’d recommend starting now. There’s thousands. Make it your odyssey to get through at least…
