Create your ideal self through writing

Today is my 30th day of writing in a row and while it is difficult and I don’t always feel like doing it, I can already feel that it is changing me in a positive way. I feel like I am getting a clearer picture of who I am and who I want to be. I am grateful for Seth Godin’s book The Practice for convincing me to write.

Where have you been? Where are you going? Get it out of your head and into writing. Use writing to organize your thoughts and strategize a plan of action. Start with the end in mind and work backwards.

Writing it out makes it feel real and tangible. When it’s written down, It’s no longer a fleeting thought. I said that. I wrote that. People saw that I said that. Am I going to be a hypocrite or am I going to live out the story I wrote?
