Are you writing too much? Well, don't!

If you want to become a proud, consistent writer, just follow these two easy tricks…

TRICK 1: Set the bar ultra-low
Never set goals like, “I want to write 1000 words a day.” That’s too much, and you'll get disappointed with yourself as soon as you miss one day.

Instead, your goal is to write only one true sentence. Just one. The beauty of that goal is that it’s really easy to accomplish. Then, if you can, keep going. That way, whatever else you write on that day is an extra. You are well above your aim. Easy, right?

TRICK 2: Don’t just get started. Make it into a habit.
Often, people give advice like, “just get started!” And there’s truth in that. Starting is important. Sure thing, everyone can write for a day — or two, or three. But there are very few people who write consistently for years. That's because they aimed too high and got burnt out!

So, if you want to improve your writing, don't be too demanding. Set realistic goals that will make you feel proud of yourself once you have accomplished them. Make sure that they are so easy to integrate into your routine that they can be easily turned into a habit.

Then, proudly call yourself an accomplished writer!
