What kind of routine suits you as a blogger or copywriter?
This question always tingles me that how should I transform my lifestyle to accommodate my passion for writing as well as my personal life. I know discipline and punctuality are the key instincts of an avid writer but sometimes it's very hard to commit to these things.
Back in the days when I started freelancing, I used to work like an animal neglecting my social life and my health. But gradually, I realized it won't go a long way if something didn't change quickly. And it did change. I found out that I was more productive and creative when I write early in the morning (around 6-7am).Therefore, I started waking up early. Other than that I found out that I love working with some classical music in the background ( Handel,Schubert,Vivaldi).Apart from that I added a warm cup of coffee in my morning ritual to get my mind on a creative track. All these additions made me more efficient with my time management.
One thing that I hate is the distraction from social media sites like Facebook and twitter. I have been trying really hard to keep away from them while writing but every time I sacrifice my precious creative moments to my Facebook's newsfeed. It takes a whole chunk of my writing hours. Anyways, that's what goes on in my every day routine.
