Happy Friday there — This week is the perfect time to start outlining, brainstorming, and planning your writing project. Or projects if you're like me and so many creatives I know who love having a variety of things to write about. Now, when you slide up to write, there might be a slight hesitation. It's these first few seconds of writing anything that sends people into a flight or freeze response. The more you get into action here, the more you're training your brain to know what to do every time you start writing. First, people cry about "writer's block" all the time. This is 100% bullshit. Many people would prefer to commiserate around NOT writing than celebrate their writing progress. You're not blocked — you just need more experience. This is also why imposter syndrome is also BS. When you write about what you know, there's no imposter there. Don't write about shit you don't know about, and you'll be fine. ⏰ Now, the 3 seconds to get through whatever it is that might look like a "block" Start writing. Write anything. Pop open that document and write whatever comes to mind. Even if it's, "I don't know what to write.... I'm not sure what to write...I'm starting to write." After three seconds of that, you'll be bored with that talk and want to jump into writing whatever it is you said you'd write. ✍️ Writing prompts can help you get started, too. In Finding Flow, participants get daily writing prompts based on the daily energy and moon phase. Some writing prompts & actions for today's waxing moon in Libra season and a Scorpio moon:

The work that’s calling me to put my head down and go deep…
